My local CW affiliate is not showing the Countdown show. I’m not sure what they’re showing, honestly. Some cop show. They’re all the same at this point.

Then. Now. Forever. Together!

We’re in Orlando! Kendal Grey & Wren Sinclair are SITTING AND TALKING! Lola Vice is WALKING! Shiloh Hill is WALKING! Tristian Angels is WALKING! Dion Lennox is WALKING! Saquon Shugars is SITTING!

We get an opening video package highlighting the upcoming matches and the American flag since it’s the Great American Bash. Vic Joseph & Wade Barrett are our hosts tonight! I hope they didn’t fire Booker, maybe he’s just getting some well-deserved time off.

NXT Men’s Championship Match: Tony D’Angelo (c) vs. Naraku: Tony D has some heavy tape over his eye due to the fireball on Tuesday. Mike Rome gives us the super special ring announcing. Red, white & blue ring ropes as the Good Lord intended and as I grew up on. Tony attacks right away and he spears Naraku through some gosh darn podium or something. I’m not sure what that was. In any event, Naraku is on the back foot until getting the upper hand in the ring. He rakes Tony’s face against the top rope, then Tony shoulderblocks Naraku in the corner before getting gouged. The referee is very concerned about Tony flailing about on the outside. Tony tries to clothesline Naraku over the top rope, that doesn’t work so Tony vertical suplexes him and he rolls outside. This leads to Naraku tripping Tony on the apron. Back in the ring, Naraku gets a nearfall and clubs on Tony. Backbreaker by Naraku, then a faceplant gets two. Naraku applies a half crab. Tony gets out, only to get suplexed into the turnbuckle for two. We go to Nonstop NXT!

Clothesline and a senton by Naraku gets two. Naraku applies an STF. Tony breaks out and locks in a Crossface. Naraku gets out of that, but gets suplexed over. Naraku rolls outside as we return full-screen.

Naraku avoids Tony on the dive, sends Tony into the barricade and hits a slam for two. After some jockeying on the turnbuckle, Tony hits a running powerbomb on Naraku. Naraku with some strikes, Tony fires back. Clothesline, bulldog out of the corner, German suplex, a powerslam gets two on Naraku. Naraku avoids a move, hits a German but Tony powers up and hits a chokeslam for the three count!

Winner: Tony D’Angelo (10:12 via pinfall)

We see a video package building up Zaria vs. Tatum Paxley.

Women’s North American Championship Match: Zaria (c) vs. Tatum Paxley: Tatum wearing the Goth Catholic schoolgirl outfit tonight. Zaria just wearing her usual attire and scaring the hell out of me like usual. Mike Rome with the super special ring announcing again. They tug over the title belt and that leads to a bell. Tatum gets the early advantage but Zaria drops her on the ropes and clotheslines her. Elbow in the corner, then a pump kick and a slam. Another slam to Tatum. Zaria smashes Tatum into the corner, but Tatum tries to fight back before getting headbutted down. Tatum drops Zaria into the ring apron and lands some shots. Tatum breaks the count of the referee then gets tossed into the front row. Tatum gets a sleeper on Zaria until Zaria drops her on the floor.

We go Nonstop NXT! Back in the ring, Tatum tries to fight back but keeps getting smacked down. Two count for Zaria. A couple of splashes in the corner by Zaria. Tatum fights back, but not for long, Zaria hits her with some strikes and gets another near-fall. Tatum gets dropped on the mat. Zaria makes Tatum humble with the camel clutch. Tatum fights out.

As we go back full screen Tatum keeps fighting. Zaria drops her on the top turnbuckle and stretches her there. Tatum hits a knee and knocks Zaria off the turnbuckle. Crossbody by Tatum, she hits a German on Zaria. Zaria placed up top, Tatum sets her up for the superplex, she hits it, but then gets speared by Zaria! Strikes are exchanged. Zaria hits a knee strike to a running Tatum, then choke lifts her in the corner. They fight on the top turnbuckle, Zaria falls into the Tree of Woe. Zaria gets out before Tatum can capitalize. They fight on the apron. Tatum slips out of Zaria’s grasp and powerbombs her on the floor! Tatum gets the North American belt, Zaria takes it from her but Tatum hits the Cemetery Drive on the floor! Tatum hits it in the ring as well, but that only gets two! Tatum gets another near-fall rolling out of an F-5, Zaria gets a near-fall as well after hitting an F-5! Zaria hits another F-5 and finally gets the pin.

Winner: Zaria (14:08 via pinfall)

Wren Sinclair paces backstage and Kendal Grey tries to chill her out. It seems to work.

Robert Stone informs Jackson Drake that he’ll be facing Mason Rook on Tuesday, and the Wagner Brothers will be getting a Tag Team Championship then as well. El Hijo de Dr. Wagner Jr. & Galeno appear in order to confirm it. The Vanity Project doesn’t seem happy.

Kevin Owens is here with two other guys to discuss the events so far.
