Dominik Mysterio and Rhea Ripley make their entrance and get on the mic.
Rhea brags about Dom retaining the title—
Enter Dragon Lee.
He says Rey Mysterio is the greatest luchador of all time, and Dom’s father, and we all know Mysterio is only still champion because of Rhea Ripley, who has Dominik’s cojones in her purse.

Baron tells Thea she peaked on Sunday and should find a different line of work. Chase gets in his face and calls him a piece of shit and Corbin tells him to wrestle him about it.

Back from commercial, Meta-Four are celebrating their win tonight backstage.
Tyler Bate rolls up and says Noam Dar could use a fresh opponent and challenges him to a match for next week.
The Schism are in the ring, completely with legion of hooded, masked goons.
Joe Gacy says they’re here due to unfortunate circumstances and ready to resolve their issues with an open heart, but insubordination and disobedience are toxic to their roots and must be eradicated. There are two people among them who have abandoned their values and pose a direct threat to the sanctity and future of the Schism.
Jagger Reid and Rip Fowler are fired up to root them out but Joe backs them down and passes the baton to Ava Raine. She says the golden masks have been a feature of NXT and two of them put hands on the Dyad and will be punished, and she tells them to step forward one-by-one and remove their masks.
The first two take their masks off and are told to leave and number three reveals himself as Ikemen Jiro and is told to get out because he’s not part of this. Rip tells another one to leave and the last two remaining are brought forward and berated as the Creeds, told they can’t get one over, but when they’re beaten down and masks revealed, they’re some randon guys.
The Creeds appear on the tron from the beach and laugh about all of it and quick change the background while they talk about all the places they’ve been and how the most important part is that they’re definitely not even close to Orlando.
Joe Gacy tells the Schism’s worldwide followers to find the Creeds and bring them to them!
