- Vignette: Andre Chase hyped up Chase University about how much they’ve accomplished together.
- Video Package: Giulia spoke about how she’s enjoying learning about American culture, but she plans to qualify for the Iron Survivor Challenge next week and will teach all the other women about the “beautiful madness” she is used to inflicting on people from her time in Japan. Backstage, Kelani Jordan asked Stevie Turner and Robert Stone to tell Ava she wants to face Giulia in that qualifier.
- Women’s Iron Survivor Challenge Qualifying Match: Stephanie Vaquer defeated Jaida Parker by pinfall due in part to some interference from Lola Vice distracting Parker.
- Earlier today, Roxanne Perez was at the beach, treating herself to a break. Sol Ruca approached her and reminded her that soon enough, she’s going to be in the Iron Survivor Challenge and then, she’ll be fighting her for the NXT Women’s Championship.
- Tony D’Angelo defeated Brooks Jensen by pinfall. Jensen and Shawn Spears took out D’Angelo after the match.
- Backstage, Karmen Petrovic and Ashante “Thee” Adonis got prepared for their upcoming mixed tag team match and continued awkwardly flirting with one another.
- After the commercial break, Lexis King was pouring his heart out backstage to Yoshiki Inamura, who then admitted to Josh Briggs that he doesn’t understand what that was all about, because “NXT is a crazy place.” The camera panned over and the tag team division was still brawling from earlier.
- Mixed Tag Team Match: Karmen Petrovic & Ashante “Thee” Adonis defeated Brinley Reece & Dion Lennox by pinfall.
- Sarah Schreiber interviewed Ridge Holland ahead of his #1 contender’s match coming up. Holland said Chase has more guts than brains, but after tonight, all of Chase U will be left to flounder on their own, as relationships will be destroyed, and Chase made the wrong gamble.
- Women’s Iron Survivor Challenge Qualifying Match: Zaria defeated Wren Sinclair by pinfall.
- Tony D’Angelo was fired up in the med bay about what happened with Shawn Spears from earlier. He wants to give Spears the title match Spears is after so he can get his hands on him. Ava granted this to him. Eddy Thorpe came over to point out the hypocrisy of Ava giving Tony D the match he wants, but that he doesn’t get another shot to qualify for the Iron Survivor Challenge even after the interference from his match earlier.
- Fatal Influence cut a promo about how everyone should be talking about Fallon Henley retaining the NXT Women’s North American Championship. She plans on having an open challenge next week, because they need time to find an opponent for her. This prompts an interruption from Meta-Four’s Lash Legend and Jakara Jackson, who want to put their name in the hat for the title opportunity. Nikkita Lyons also comes out, but is jumped by Adriana Rizzo. Another brawl then ensues between a bunch of the women, leaving Henley alone in the ring to be attacked by Tatum Paxley.
- Spears, Jensen, and Niko Vance were talking backstage about how Spears is happy to have gotten his North American Championship match. Next to them, Petrovic and Adonis were talking about how they make a good team, when Nikkita Lyons walked by and threw out there about texting Adonis, which upset Petrovic. Adonis denied texting Lyons as Petrovic walked away.
- Ethan Page spoke in a video package about how he’s going to win the Iron Survivor Challenge. As a response in the locker room, Axiom then informed Nathan Frazer that Page isn’t going to even qualify, as he’s going to be his opponent for that qualifying match. They had an awkward moment together with the realization that if they both are int he Iron Survivor Challenge, they’ll be facing each other at NXT Deadline.
- NXT Championship No. 1 Contender’s Match: Ridge Holland defeated Andre Chase by pinfall. As per the stipulation, Holland not only will get a title match against Trick Williams at NXT Deadline, but Chase University has to disband.
