WWE NXT

-Commentators:  Mauro Ranallo, Nigel McGuinness, & "Showtime" Percy Watson.
-NXT Champion Tommaso Ciampa kicked off the show by extolling his own virtues...but he had a bone to pick with "The Velveteen Dream" Patrick Clark.  Dream had been accusing Ciampa of attacking Aleister Black and Ciampa said it was none of his business...of course, that brought out Dream.  Dream noted that perhaps that belt would look better on him, continuing the war of words...and Ciampa wondered whether or not Dream was "tough enough" to be champion.  It looked like a future title match was about to be set up, but Nikki Cross decided to make a seemingly random appearance...she told Dream "I know what you did" and then said the same to Ciampa...
-"Limitless" Keith Lee d. "The Finest" Kona Reeves with the Super Nova(fireman's-carry Jackhammer) (3:59).
-Backstage:  General Manager S. William Regal was asked about the Aleister Black investigation, but he was interrupted by Kassius Ohno...Ohno asked if Regal's "shiny new toy" had arrived yet so he could break it.  He wondered if that new arrival(Matt Riddle) was the perpetrator in Regal's investigation...Regal simply excused himself to his office.  Suddenly Nikki Cross popped up, telling Ohno that she knew what HE did...
-Ricochet won a triple threat match with Adam Cole and United Kingdom Champion "The Bruiserweight" Pete Dunne to retain the NXT North American Title.  Dunne hit Cole with the Bitter End(pumphandle Flatliner), but Ricochet broke up the pin with a springboard 450 Splash and pinned Dunne for the win (18:30).
-Next week:  The Undisputed Era(Roderick Strong & Kyle O'Reilly) vs. The War Raiders(Todd Hanson & Raymond Rowe) for the NXT Tag Team Titles, plus Nikki Cross vs. Bianca Belair.

Lucha Underground Season 4 Episode 18

-Commentators:  Matt Striker & Vampiro.
-Taya Valkyrie called out promoter Antonio Cueto for Matanza's destruction of her wedding...he sacrificed two of her friends(Joey Wrestling and Jack Evans) on top of that.  She demanded to get Matanza in the ring and Antonio was only too happy to oblige...as long as it provided another sacrifice to the gods...
-Matanza Cueto(w/ Antonio Cueto) d. Taya Valkyrie by DQ when Johnny Mundo broke up an attempted Wrath Of The Gods(rewind powerslam) (2:37).  Mundo beat down Matanza and hit the Moonlight Drive(somersault neckbreaker) and Fin Del Mundo(corkscrew split-legged moonsault) before getting out of dodge with his wife.
-Fenix & Mil Muertes d. Dragon Azteca Jr. & Willie Mack in a tornado tag match when Fenix pinned Azteca after the Black Fire Driver(muscle buster-into-Michinoku Driver) as Mil pinned Mack after the Flatliner (9:51).
-Famous B(w/ Beautiful Brenda) announced that he had recovered from his broken ankle and was returning to in-ring competition...but Ricky Mundo interrupted, leading to a match.
-Ricky Mundo d. Famous B(w/ Beautiful Brenda) with a corkscrew snapmare driver (1:34).  Afterwards, Ricky owned up to releasing Matanza to bust up the wedding (knowing full well that Johnny and Taya had already left the building).  He challenged Taya to a match at Ultima Lucha, then locked Brenda in a Crippler Crossface to send a message.
-Pentagon Dark d. Reklusa with the package piledriver (9:44).  Pentagon sent a message to LU Champion Marty "The Moth" Martinez by teasing an arm-breaking, then getting out thumbtacks and preparing to powerbomb Reklusa onto them...but Marty ran out to blindside Pentagon with a barbed-wire bat.  Reklusa got out a can of gasoline and dumped it on Pentagon as Marty prepared a lighter...but blew out the flame as the show faded to black.
-Ultima Lucha Cuatro so far:  Johnny Mundo vs. Matanza Cueto, Son Of Havoc vs. Killshot mask-vs.-mask, Marty Martinez vs. Pentagon Dark in a Cero Miedo Match for the LU Title, Willie Mack vs. Mil Muertes in a death match, Dragon Azteca Jr. vs. Fenix in a best-of-three-falls match, and Taya Valkyrie vs. Ricky Mundo.
