We see highlights of the tournament to crown the 1st ever NXT Tag Team Champions leading to tonight’s show, where the finals will take place.
Tony Dawson welcomes us to the show, then we are scheduled to go to the opening match between Axl Keegan & Mike Dalton, but Paige runs out and chases Summer Rae to the back. Paige gets back into the ring and grabs the microphone.
Paige: “You can run all you like, Summer Rae, but this show is not gonna go forward until you come back in the ring with me!” “So, I am gonna stand right here until she steps back in.”
Keegan tries to reason with Paige to leave, but she ups and slaps the taste outta Keegan’s mouth.
“Get out of my ring!”
The music of NXT commissioner Dusty Rhodes hits and Dusty makes his way out to the entrance ramp. Dusty says that this show does not involve around what Paige wants done and she is not gonna hold NXT hostage. Dusty tells Paige to leave, but Paige says she is not going anywhere. Dusty again says she needs to leave and tells the ref to get her to leave, but Paige will have none of it. Summer Rae comes back out and says that Paige wants to interrupt her, but this is not her show, I’m the 1st Lady of NXT!
Paige then leaves the ring and goes after Summer on the rampway. Dusty is caught in the middle of the fracas as both women wanna tear each other apart. Referees come out to separate the two as it appears that during the fracas, Paige seemed to hurt her shoulder. The refs take Summer to the back as Paige is favoring her shoulder. The crowd is chanting “Let them fight” as we go to commercial.
