NXT North American Champion Keith Lee will be out, next.

-Commercial Break-

A creepy video package hypes up Dexter Lumis.

https://twitter.com/WWENXT/status/1242979328146706433

NXT North American Champion Keith Lee is in the ring for an interview. It is mentioned that Lee beat Cameron Grimes to retain the title. Afterward, he was attacked by Damian Priest and accidentally attacked Dominik Dijakovic in retaliation. Lee says he does owe Dijakovic an apology.

Dominik Dijakovic comes out to the ring. Dijakovic doesn’t give a damn about the apology. Lee should have known he’d never attack him from behind. The reality of the situation is Lee did attack him and take the food off his family’s plate. Damian Priest interrupts and says neither one of them are him. Priest sarcastically asks about Dijakovic’s knee before saying Lee’s back must hurt. Priest’s eyes are on the title. It’ll give him what he wants: more money, more women, more fame, and more legacy. Priest’s name will live forever, but he needs the title. Lee says Priest wants to live forever, but who he attacked makes sure he won’t live forever. The champion is in the ring no matter what. Priests says it’s maybe time Lee doesn’t stand anymore.

Dijkaovic shoves Lee out of the way and attacks Priest as he gets in the ring. Lee gets away and attacks Priest outside the ring. They brawl before Dijakovic hits a springboard summersault plancha on both men. Dijakovic stands tall and walks off.

NXT Champion Adam Cole will be shown next.

-Commercial Break-

NXT Champion Adam Cole is shown poolside “on vacation.” Adam Cole says he was flustered by his confrontation with the Velveteen Dream. Then he figured why should he be flustered? He’s the first ever winner of WarGames, first North American Champion, and the longest-reigning NXT Champion. Dream has done nothing to earn a shot at him or the title. The Undisputed ERA would love to get a crack at the experience. Bobby Fish wants some. When Dream loses to Fish, he’ll prove that he’s a loser. The Dream is over. That is Undisputed.

https://twitter.com/WWE/status/1242993206016593927

Triple H is in the ring. In the history of NXT, there has been no greater rivalry or personal issue more intense than what’s happened with Johnny Gargano and Tommaso Ciampa. It’s a rivalry that has sparked…

Tommaso Ciampa comes out to the ring. Ciampa says he’s been here five years. Everything that can be said has been said and what’s been done has been done. Ciampa demands Johnny Gargano get out here. Triple H says there will be no physicality tonight, but he does have Gargano come out.

Gargano comes out to the stage. Gargano says the psychopath in the ring tried to kill him the last time they met. It’s not his fault the Performance Center got destroyed and he’s getting fined. Ciampa started it. Ciampa threw the weights at the mirror and tried to dive through the window. Triple H says the only reason they weren’t fired by William Regal is because of him. There will be no touching.

https://twitter.com/tde_wrestling/status/1243018595803844611

Gargano gets in the ring. Triple H says he understands what’s going on with them from a professional standpoint. It happened with him and Shawn Michaels. Eventually they’ll realize there’s more than the ring. Still, it’s got to end. Triple H can’t have them tearing up buildings and endangering other people. This should end on the biggest stage there is. Gargano stops Triple H. This was supposed to end last year, but Ciampa broke his neck. Gargano laments not breaking the neck himself. Ciampa says bigger things have been going on in his life in the past year. Ciampa broke his neck and gave away his life. This needs to end between the two of them.

Triple H says after everything they’ve been through, this deserves to be on the biggest stage. Gargano says they don’t need that. Just give them a ring and a referee. Ciampa says Triple H and Shawn know this better than anyone. Gargano says he’s the heart and soul of NXT. He’ll make Ciampa realize what kind of monster he is. Triple H says if they don’t need a crowd or an arena, he’ll give them the opportunity. When do they want it? Now? Gargano says he’s not ready now after the beating he took. He needs two weeks and they’ll finish this once and for all. Triple H says he’ll find an empty building, put a ring in it, give them a referee just there to say it’s over, but when it’s over, it’s over. Two of them will walk into the building when he finds one and only one will walk out. Then it’s done. If it continues after that, then neither of them will be in NXT. They won’t have to worry about being the heart and soul of NXT because NXT will carry on without them. In two weeks, they’ll get a message with a location. They will go there.

Ciampa says in two weeks, NXT will go on without Johnny Wrestling. Gargano says he is the better man, wrestler, and everything. All of a sudden, a video saying, “The end is near,” appears on the screen. Killer Kross is shown. The show ends.
