NXT World Tag Team Championships: SAnitY vs. The Undisputed Era
UE try tp frustrate Dain early with leg kicks and strikes but quickly run tot he ropes or tag out before Dain can give a recipe. They sucker Dain into tagging EY in, as he's the weaker link so once they survive the EY run on offense. Fish kicks EY's knees out from under him on the apron, and they can isolate him. Good control on the UE part, double teams, cutting the ring off, they don't really stick to a body part. Just attack either the mid-section, arm or the knee both parts that hit hard when EY hit the apron. Dain has a fun hot tag, they're still building him up so he does all his wrecking ball offense and it's a good time. He drops Kyle with a nasty spike Michinoku driver onto Fish for two, but he makes the mistake of tagging EY back in. Fish takes Dain out, and as EY goes for the elbow off the top. Cole comes out and crotches EY leading to Kyle hitting the kick/elbow combo for two. CROSS RUNS FROM THE CROWD AND ATTACKS COLE. But refs come out and pull her off and bring her to the back, as Cole remains at ringside. On the floor, Dain tries to attack Cole but Cole shoves him into the apron taking him out, EY then makes the mistake of taking out Cole with a dive. But when he rolls back in UE hit TOTAL ELIMINATION FOR THE WIN! **1/2
In the parking lot, Shakes and Weights find Tino's whip, the short fight one tries to move it with his hands. But Moss and Tino come out and say if they work hard they can to have a car like this, not this exact one maybe the downgraded one but one day. Pork and weights. Otis snaps and they do the guy, chip, friend back and forth bit but as soon as Otis challenges them to a match team NFLosers bail in the car and drive off.
Earlier this week at the PC, Sonya challenges Ember to a title match next week.
Recap of Black/Cole last week airs.
Qualifying Match: Lars Sullivan vs. Roderick Strong
Roddy takes to Roddy approach to start the match, that's hit hard and hit often but LARS MURKS HIM WITH A LARIAT TO PUT A STOP TO ALL OF THAT. Good Lars control, he works the lower back and kidneys, this is one of Roddy's better performances in his time here, he busts out all the big match roddy bumping and selling, he really goes above and beyond to make Larz look like a monster. Roddy's comeback fuckin rules, he goes to the aerial strikes and even does this awesome thing that I've never seen him do, and that ties Lars leg up in the ropes and hit a bunch of running forearms to the back and front of the head softening him up. He then follows up with a superplex off the top. BUT LARS KICKS OUT AT ONE! Roddy is in shock and follows up with the Angle slam for another two. But Lars comes back with Goldberg's popup powerslam and follows up with the freak accident for the win. I fucking love 2017 NXT. **3/4
Next Week: Black/Dain/Gargano/Lars - #1 Contenders match.
Backstage: Christy asks Tyler what's going through his mind with his title match up next, Tyler says this thing between he and Dunne has been almost a year now. And tonight he takes back what's his.
United Kingdom Championship: Tyler Bate vs. Pete Dunne
As soon as the bell rings, Dunne goes into his finger and joint manipulation, but Bate's seen this before and counters it. They get into a good back and forth mat and counter wrestling exchange, lots of British style counters and it ruled. I miss high-level mat wrestling to start a match, we never get it anymore and guys are not really good at it now anyway. Dunne is such a good antagonist dick, so he keeps taking these cheap shots, as he just tries to frustrate Bate, but Bate's been through this before so he doesn't completely fall for the tricks. So, they stop all the one-upmanship and begin just beating the shit out of one another. I really wish they would have made a big deal out of Bate stomping on Dunne's fingers on the steps, instead of glossing it over and immediately going into Dunne hitting a superplex off the steps to the floor. FUCKIN TREMENDOUS Dunne control, he works he head and neck, but goes back to the finger, wrist, and arm. At one point it looks like he LEGIT dislocated Bate's finger when he stomped it into the mat. Fucking nasty. Bate would hit a desperation exploder suplex, to kick-start his comeback, Dunne counters the Tyler Driver into a triangle choke but Bate does something I've never seen before, he hits the big powerbomb spot but Dunne keeps the hold, sp Bate picks him up and carries him to the ropes and catapults him throat first onto the top rope to break the hold. He follows up with a 45-second airplane spin and falls on top for two. Bate then busts out the explorer from the apron, it's not as impressive as Cesaro's deadlift suplex as Dunne has to climb the ropes for him to hit it, but still, it looked great. They just begin stomping one another in the head, but Dunne hits the bitter end out of nowhere for two. THEY DO A FUCKING ROCK EM' SOCK EM' EXCHANGE WITH BATE HITTING THE BIG RIGHT HAND, BUT HIS HAND STILL HURTS FROM ALL THE WORK SO HE CAN'T FOLLOW UP. They end up fighting on the apron, and Bate hits the cannonball kick, but Dunne rolls back in for separation. Bate then tries to follow up with a crossbody off the top but Dunne hits the elbow in mid-air and follows with the explex into the powerbomb for two. They fight on the floor again with Bate faking him out with a dive to hit a big lariat on the floor, he then follows up with a no hands plancha to the floor. He quickly rolls him in and hits the Tyler Driver '97 but this time it's Dunne who kicks out. Bate HITS THE FUCKING SPIRAL TAP, BUT HE DOESN'T HIT ALL OF IT, WHICH ALLOWS DUNNE TO KICK OUT! Bate then goes for the German off the top, but Dunne lands on his feet on the landing and quickly hits the Bitter end for the win. HOLY SHIT! HOW DID I NOT REMEMBER THIS? MOTY! THIS IS BETTER THAN CHICAGO. ****1/2
