Keep Refreshing For The Latest Results

For the first time since TakeOver: Chicago, NXT returns to Full Sail University.

NXT Champion Aleister Black kicks things off for a promo. He speaks of how someone deals with adversity defines them as a champion. Adversity was Lars Sullivan in Chicago and he made him fade to black. Tommaso Ciampa comes out to the stage. Now that Black has faced adversity, he needs to face the devil himself now. He doesn’t buy all teh smoke and candles and such. Tommaso says the title makes Black and not the other way around. He notes that Black barely got past Lars, while Ciampa beat Johnny Gargano in the main event. And he beat him with his hand tied behind his back. Ciampa’s new focus is the NXT Title, saying Black has something he wants. Black says that if Regal books the match, he’ll kick Ciampa’s lights out. Ciampa calls him boy and tells him to be careful of what he says. There’s a mystique around Black and when Ciampa beats him, he says the title and the mystique will be gone. As Ciampa speaks of needing one opportunity, he sits cross legged and says the reign will fade to black. He waves goodbye and leaves before Black comes after him.

Commentary announces that Lars Sullivan wrestled half the TakeOver match with a broken jaw.

Tonight, Candice LeRae faces Lacey Evans.

Earlier today, reporters spoke with Vanessa Borne. She says she’ll be NXT Women’s Champion soon. Then, she moves on to question Kairi Sane dressing like a pirate, calling it stupid. It shouldn’t be admired, she should. She will take Kairi to the ring and Kairi won’t work out. With her gone, Borne will be on posters and such.

Backstage, Cathy Kelley interviews Johnny Gargano about watching his wife just now and his recovery. He calls Candice his favorite wrestler, but says that he keeps replaying Chicago in his head. Ciampa taking off his ring, spitting on it, and then winning doesn’t sit right with him. Johnny says Tommaso doesn’t get to win. With the score tied at 1, he’s asking Regal for another match. He doesn’t care if its next week, in Brooklyn, or in the street/grocery store. This ends when Tommaso does.

Earlier today, Heavy Machinery grill some food and say they’re coming for the Mighty.

William Regal tweeted out that Gargano needs to move on from Ciampa, so he’ll face EC3 next week.

Cathy Kelley now gets a word with Candice. She asks how hard it is to focus on her career and what’s happening to Johnny. She’s concerned for him, but it’s her time to worry about her future and goals. His passion to go after what he wants is what drives her and she’s going after the NXT Women’s Title.
