“Then… Now… Forever.”

A video package of highlights from last Saturday’s ‘NXT Takeover: Portland’ airs. Following that, we’re reminded of Velveteen Dream’s actions against Roderick Strong for the past 2 weeks which leads to a main event grudge match tonight.

“Shock… the System.” All of Undisputed Era makes their way to the ring and Adam Cole grabs the mic. “I told you! I told each and every one of you that obsession would never beat destiny. Undisputed Era is going to continue to set examples, just Roddy Strong is going to make one out of Velveteen Dream tonight!”

Velveteen Dream appears on the screen, telling Strong to keep his boys in the back and be a man, be the man Marina always wanted him to be. Strong tells Dream that he’s going to wish he never came back.

I’m not asking myself ‘Why, Johnny, Why’… I know why. Johnny knows why… and if one…”
