Join 411’s Live WWE NXT Coverage

Hey kids! Steve Cook here with you for the latest edition of WWE NXT on the CW! Two of my worlds are colliding, as we’re seeing some of the AAA crew in action this week! El Hijo del Vikingo will defend the AAA Latin American Championship while the Wagner Brothers will challenge for the NXT Tag Team Championship. We’ll also see Mason Rook take on Jackson Drake, Jaida Parker vs. Karmen Petrovic, and much more tonight, so it’ll be a good time!

If you already subscribe to the 411MANIA Wrestling Newsletter, earlier today you received some of my thoughts on Sami Zayn becoming Undisputed WWE Champion, AAA & NXT running against AEW & changes behind the scenes at TNA. If you don’t already subscribe, do so right now! Yes, before we get to the show because if you’re like me you won’t remember to do this a minute from now.

If you’d like to chime in with your own thoughts on tonight’s show, feel free to join your fellow 411 Maniacs down in the comment section! As the legendary Larry Csonka always said: Have fun and don’t be a dick. When I’m not here you can catch me on social media from time to time. To be honest, e-mail is a better option and you can reach me at [email protected]. I’ll be more likely to respond there.

Then. Now. Forever. Together!

We open by looking back at Sunday’s Great American Bash event. Saquon Shugars beat Dion Lennox but still got beat up by DarkState. Shiloh Hill used some under the ring shenanigans to defeat Tristian Angels. Tony D’Angelo overcame a bad eye to beat Naraku. Kendal Grey won the NXT Women’s Championship from Lola Vice, I’m sure she cheated somehow.

We’re in Orlando! Wren Sinclair tells Kendal Grey it’s her moment, so she won’t accompany her to the ring. Kendal makes her way into the arena. Vic Joseph & Booker T are our hosts tonight. Kendal says she’s going to be honest with us: she’s more nervous coming out and talking to the people than she was main eventing on Sunday. She was never good at talking, not even in elementary school. Ever since John Cena chose her to be in Iron Survivor, her life has been crazy. She’s received a lot of opportunities she wasn’t sure she was ready for. Nobody puts more pressure on her than her. Before coming to NXT she was never used to losing. She was dominant in high school wrestling & EVOLVE. Once getting to NXT, she kept coming up short in championship matches. She wasn’t sure if she belonged. This Sunday she got her answer and the title proves it. She might not look like the normal champion. Lola had her designer dresses & was all glammed up, that’s what a champion looks like. That’s not her style. She doesn’t last long in a makeup chair. She won’t be comfortable dressing like a Barbie, she won’t always sound like a champion. She will wrestle like a champion and take the division to a level no one has seen before. She welcomes the target on her back, she thrives in competition. It’s her match, tempo and pace. All the girls will find out that they can’t keep up with Kendal.

Wren Sinclair comes out with a cake! Wren wanted Kendal to have her moment out here because she deserves it. Last week, Kendal’s vision came true and they both walked out of the Bash as champions. A two layer cake for the two champs bringing gold home for the NQCC.

Kelani Jordan comes out and is outraged. She wants the chance she deserves at the NXT Women’s Championship. She didn’t even get a match on the Bash, she was attacked by a lunatic instead. Tatum Paxley attacks Kelani from behind! Wren & Kendal eat the cake while Kelani & Tatum fight off.

We go backstage and see Keanu Carver with a big pole standing over El Hijo del Vikingo! Robert Stone screams for medical as we go to commercial.
