TONIGHT ON NXT: After being viciously attacked by Jaxson Ryker before their scheduled match two weeks ago on NXT, “The Original Bro” Matt Riddle looks to get payback!

SHOW OPENER PROMO

Trent Seven is grateful to be challenging fellow British Strong Style member, Pete Dunne, for the WWE United Kingdom Championship at NXT UK TakeOver and he is also grateful for the respect both men have for each other in the lead-up to their title match. However, Seven can't help but wonder how he'd fare against the ruthless and vicious side of Pete Dunne.

“The Bruiserweight” explains that he doesn't think Trent Seven has what it takes to beat Pete as it is. Trent surely doesn't have what it takes to defeat the Pete Dunne that he's referring to. This comment sets off Trent Seven who now more than ever is out to prove Pete otherwise.

MIDDLE CARD PROMO

Adam Cole brags about beating Akira Tozawa at NXT TakeOver for the NXT Championship before placing himself as the NXT Mount Rushmore four times over and painting a prophecy of The entire Undisputed ERA draped in gold.

Buzz from Monday Night RAW interrupts fresh off of his victory last week that put him as the #1 contender for the NXT Championship. Cole gives Buzz a stern warning that challenging him “will only further harm Buzz's already downward-facing career”. However, Buzz remains undeterred.
