WWE NXT

-Commentators:  Mauro Ranallo, Nigel McGuinness, & "Showtime" Percy Watson.
-NXT North American Champion Adam Cole d. Danny Burch(non-title) after the Shining Wizard to the back of the head (8:50).
-Earlier today:  Candice LeRae was interviewed about her pursuit of the NXT Women's Title, but she crossed paths with the champion Shayna Baszler outside the building.  Baszler advised her to stick to being the "cute little sidekick", earning herself a slap from Candice.  That triggered a brawl that had to be broken up by referees and other personnel.
-Backstage:  Dakota Kai was interviewed about her own championship aspirations and Shayna Baszler...she was interrupted by Lacey Evans, who said Dakota would bring the title down while a lady like herself would bring it up to its proper prestige.  Dakota challenged her to a match on next week's show...works for me.
-Kairi Sane d. Vanessa Borne with the Anchor(crossed-leg Boston crab) (5:51).  After the match, Kairi let Shayna Baszler know that she had beaten her before and would do it again to capture the NXT Women's Title.
-Backstage:  NXT Champion Aleister Black crossed paths with Johnny Gargano...Gargano let Black know that Tommaso Ciampa CANNOT win and become the champion.  Black said that he would handle things, but as he entered the building, he was attacked by Ciampa who laid him out with a hanging DDT.
-Roderick Strong & Kyle O'Reilly d. Moustache Mountain(Tyler Bate & Trent Seven) to win the NXT Tag Team Titles; Strong & O'Reilly destroyed Seven's knee and O'Reilly locked Seven in a double kneebar.  Seven refused to tap out, but Bate finally threw in the towel and the referee stopped the match (17:31).  Adam Cole and Bobby Fish celebrated with their stablemates after the match.
-Next week:  Dakota Kai vs. Lacey Evans, plus Kairi Sane vs. Candice LeRae vs. Nikki Cross vs. Bianca Belair for the next shot at Baszler.
