- Promo: No Quarter Catch Crew opened the show with Myles Borne addressing how he is partially deaf and how he could still hear the crowd go crazy when he shocked the world and won the battle royal last week. He doesn’t want to be known by his disability, but be judged by his abilities. Ethan Page interrupted to talk trash about how Borne is pandering. Charlie Dempsey suggested Borne should face Page to silence the doubters by facing a former NXT champion. Ava came out to make it official with the No. 1 contendership on the line.
- Oba Femi defeated Charlie Dempsey by pinfall.
- Backstage, Karmen Petrovic thanked Thea Hail for having her back last week, which sent Tatum Paxley into a tantrum for losing everything (since her husband Javier Bernal and her two teammates Shotzi and Gigi Dolin were released).
- Wes Lee defeated Tony D’Angelo by pinfall due in part to Stacks showing up on the TitanTron to say he knew where Adriana Rizzo’s safehouse is and was going to pay her a visit.
- Promo: Stephanie Vaquer started to speak about Jordynne Grace when she was interrupted by Fatal Influence (Fallon Henley and Jacy Jayne, no Jazmyn Nyx for some reason). Tension is still going on between Henley and Jayne even while they’re badmouthing Vaquer. Grace then came out and everyone kind of took jabs at each other in an awkward segment that just sort of ended. Everybody felt off here.
- The Undertaker and Bubba Ray Dudley talked to Tyra Mae Steele and Zena Sterling backstage about how they earned the right to wrestle in Madison Square Garden this weekend for the finals of LFG. Izzi Dame and Nikkita Lyons interrupted to say “good luck lasting an hour in our locker room” and Lola Vice and Lash Legend as well as others stood around to intimidate them, too. Taker said whoever wins will have their work cut out for them.
- Tony D’Angelo got into a car to head to Rizzo.
- No. 1 Contender’s Match: Myles Borne defeated Ethan Page by pinfall.
- “Super” Sean Legacy put out a challenge for Je’Von Evans on a tweet video. Then, Je’Von was talking to Ashante “Thee” Adonis, who said the indie guys aren’t worth their time and said he’d smoke both of them. Ricky Saints overheard all this and suggested he talks to Ava and the winner between Adonis and Evans could get a title shot for the North American Championship at Battleground.
- Stacks got the jump on D’Angelo and wants to finish The Don at Battleground.
- Thea Hail defeated Tatum Paxley by disqualification as Paxley has just lost it and wasn’t listening to the referee, trying to gouge Hail’s eyes out, even.
- Jaida Parker was watching the feed backstage and is happy that happened to Thea Hail. Kelani Jordan came over to talk to Sol Ruca and ZARIA, so Parker peaced out. Jordan’s upset over ZARIA spearing her through the barricade. Ruca apologized, but ZARIA said there’s no reason to apologize and if they ran it back again, the same result would happen. Jordan suggested a rematch with a title shot at Battleground on the line and it’s on.
- Contract Signing between Joe Hendry and Trick Williams.
- Hank Walker and Tank Ledger talked to Josh Briggs in the locker room, who is feeling down about how Yoshiki Inamura left. Shawn Spears then said you don’t appreciate what you’ve got until its gone, and then said he was talking about Brooks Jensen, calling Briggs a cancer to relationships and they should change that before it consumes him. Briggs has a “really good idea” about how to “clear his head” and Spears snickers and walks off.
- Ava spoke to Kale Dixon and Uriah Connors, who want a tag team match. That’s going to happen next week against OTM.
- Stephanie Vaquer and Jordynne Grace defeated Fatal Influence (Fallon Henley & Jacy Jayne) by pinfall with Grace over Jayne. Grace and Vaquer then had a stare-off inside the ring.
- Backstage, Ethan Page attacked Ricky Saints to prove that he isn’t done yet with him.
