Tom Phillips talks about what is coming on Night Two of NXT’s Great American Bash next week.

Video Package: Adam Cole (c) vs. Keith Lee for the NXT Championship: Prime Target

NXT Women’s Champion Io Shirai is shown warming up backstage. She’ll face Sasha Banks later tonight.

-Commercial Break-

A disappointed Johnny Gargano and Candice LeRae are walking backstage when they’re stopped for an interview. LeRae runs off to beat up Mia Yim, who she saw from afar. Isaiah “Swerve” Scott tries to help, but Gargano shoves him. Referees and other wrestlers run in to break it up.

NXT Cruiserweight Champion Santos Escobar makes his way to the ring with Joaquin Wilde and Raul Mendoza. They’re being called El Legado del Fantasma. Escobar says the lucha libre culture used to mean something. It used to transcend the wrestling ring. They were movie stars, icons, heroes, and role models. Now it’s a sideshow. The people settled. They think lucha libre is just guys in masks doing flips. They’re wrong because they are more than a mask. Legado del Fantasma will rediscover the true roots of lucha libre in his image. They’ll restore its honor and leave a legacy to be proud of. They’re going to right the wrongs of those that disrupted what it means to be a lucha libre artist. They are going to build their empire. He is Santos Escobar and this…

Drake Maverick’s music hits, and he comes out to the stage with a neck brace on. Maverick pulls the brace off, charges the ring, and runs into Mendoza and Wilde. They quickly take him out and hold him up for Escobar. Escobar says no one will touch him. Breezango runs down and fight Wilde and Mendoza off before clotheslining them out of the ring. Escobar quickly leaves the ring and walks off. Fandango challenges them to a six-man tag match on Night Two of the NXT Great American Bash. They’ll have nowhere to hide.

Cameron Grimes is backstage laughing. He heard Damian Priest challenge him to a rematch. Grimes says for a man that claims he’ll live forever, he’s sure in a hurry to come after him. Grimes doesn’t have time to worry about the past because he’s got his foot on the gas. Grimes calls out either Keith Lee or Adam Cole… whoever wins, he’s the #1 Contender.

Coming up next, NXT Women’s Champion Io Shirai takes on Sasha Banks. The main event will be shown commercial free.

-Commercial Break-

It’s official: Drake Maverick and Breezango will take on Legado del Fantasma. We’ll also see Candice LeRae take on Mia Yim in a Street Fight. Adam Cole takes on Keith Lee in a Winner Take All Match. This all happens next week on night two of the NXT Great American Bash.
