In the ring, Baron Corbin said while he was main-eventing PPVs, NXT talent was getting called up and they were filled with talent and hunger and then something changed. Now they come up with ego and attitude on their cell phone acting like they have nowhere better to be. Then he walked through these doors talking about their legacy or complaining about how they haven’t been called up yet. They walk through these doors on to a championship team with guaranteed contracts living in a house he built along with the other OGs who started in FCW who took it all the way to Barclay’s Center. He came through the doors tonight and the Superstars can’t look him in the eye and show him the respect he deserves. He can’t control the last batch that came up, but we will have control over the next because he’s going to make every one of these Superstars regret signing a WWE contract. Every one of them is soft and weak and they are not as good as they think they are. This starts with the champion Carmelo Hayes because Hayes walks around like his stuff doesn’t think, but Hayes got a taste of main roster reality last week when he laid him out. Ilja Dragunov came out and said he can look Corbin in the eyes and say that he’s not weak. Corbin said there’s that NXT arrogance. Dragunov challenged Corbin a match for tonight and Corbin accepted. As Dragunov left the ring, Trick Williams attacked Corbin from behind and clothesline him over the top rope.
Earlier today, Thea Hail was shown saying she could barely feel her legs. Charlie Dempsey opened the door and said he will see her back here tomorrow. Duke Hudson asked Hail what is going on? Hail said Dempsey is teaching her how to crunch people, toughen her up, and showing her grappling holds. Hudson reminded Hail that she didn’t like Dempsey and Drew Gulak as they made here cry. Hail said you just have to give it right back to them.
Backstage, Dragunov was shown on the floor holding his arm with Bron Breakker standing over him asking him how that feels.
The Dyad (Jagger Reid & Rip Fowler) & Ava vs Diamond Mine (Julius & Brutus Creed & Ivy Nile)
Ivy Nile and Ava were brawling before Nile caught Ava in a dragon sleeper. Reid tried to break it up, but Nile caught him in the same hold. Ava headbutted Nile while wearing her steel mask while the referee was distracted. Ava threw the mask out of the ring, the referee turned around, and counted the fall on Nile.
===Winners: The Dyad & Ava
In a pre-tape segment, Channing “Stacks” Lorenzo visited Tony D’Angelo in jail. D’Angelo asked Lorenzo if he found out who the rat is. Lorenzo said it’s probably Gallus. D’Angelo told Lorenzo that he can’t take on all three alone, so Lorenzo needs to figure it out.
Earlier today, Vaughn Wagner & Mr. Stone were at the psychologist office. They showed a flashback of them visiting other psychologists that did not end well. Wagner was getting ready to leave when a female psychologist opened the door. Vaughn said he will give her a shot.
Dani Palmer vs Blair Davenport

Ali gave Gacy a knee strike and a neckbreaker. Ali went to the top rope and Gacy followed him up there to try to give him a superplex. Ali blocked it and gave Gacy a powerbomb off the top rope.
