- In the locker room, Je’Von Evans once again tried to get Trick Williams on his side regarding Darkstate, and Williams once again talked about the differences between Evans having potential and Trick being a former champion who is focused on getting that title back. [It’s been the same basic promo for like 3 weeks]
- Interview: Vic Joseph sat down with Ricky Saints and asked him about the people saying he doesn’t belong. Saints talks about how he believes in himself and he’s gotten where he’s at because of his confidence. Shawn Spears interrupted and started grilling Saints over his overconfidence and how he didn’t ask him to be in The Culling because of that. Saints makes it clear he’s coming for the North American title. Spears threatens Saints that he’s burnt every bridge.
- Tyriek Igwe, Tyson Dupont, and Wes Lee were watching the interview. In the background were Ethan Page, Andre Chase, Uriah Connors, and Kale Dixon, setting up Chase against Page.
- Elsewhere backstage, Hank Walker and Tank Ledger talked to The Motor City Machine Guns to get hyped for a tag team match.
- Tyriek Igwe & Tyson Dupont defeated Tank Ledger & Hank Walker by pinfall with some help from Wes Lee’s interference.
- Backstage, Ava asks Stephanie Vaquer (who is being taped up) if she’s still able to defend her other title tonight. Vaquer wants to keep her word about being a fighting double champion.
- Sarah Schreiber interviewed Fraxiom. Axiom spoke about facing Gunther on SmackDown, saying it’s a moment he’ll never forget. Nathan Frazer was upset for not getting an invite and suggested that if he had been there, maybe Axiom could have beaten Gunther. Axiom pointed out on the monitor that Oba Femi looked pissed and left the area while Frazer was busy looking at the screen.
- NXT Heritage Cup Match: Lexis King (c) defeated Je’Von Evans by count-out. Oba Femi attacked Evans to get back at him for last week, which caused the count out scenario. Darkstate then approached the ring, but stopped while still in the crowd, as Trick Williams came out to go after Oba Femi.
- Tatum Paxley & Gigi Dolin defeated The Meta-Girls (Jakara Jackson & Lash Legend) by pinfall.
- At the restaurant, Tony D’Angelo was informed by two random dudes that “the streets are talking a lot.” The rest of The Family walked into the room and he talks about how they need to sort out what Darkstate is all about. Strangely, Tony asked Stacks if he’s good and talks about how he can always trust him, which Stacks reassures him, but D’Angelo looks concerned.
- Alex Shelley and Chris Sabin gave Hank and Tank a pep talk about how it’s “short term pain for long term gain” and how it takes a long time to get to their level, so they shouldn’t give up.
- Ethan Page defeated Andre Chase by pinfall. Ricky Saints was ringside for the match and got jumped by The Culling after the bell.
- NXT Women’s North American Championship Match: Stephanie Vaquer (c) defeated Fallon Henley by pinfall. Jordynne Grace helped Vaquer fight off Fatal Influence after the match, and Jaida Parker also went on the attack, but not being able to get one over on Grace.
