WWE NXT RESULTS AND LIVE BLOG FOR SEPT. 19
On the news at night, they talk about the disappearances. They interview the people who were witnesses. Most are shocked, some don’t care, but me? I’m just here to liveblog this here pro wrestling show for you, folks.
The show opens with a recap of Becky Lynch winning the NXT Women’s Championship last week.
Becky Lynch makes her entrance and gets on the mic.
She talks about coming back to NXT and says she’ll bring the fight every damn night and it doesn’t matter the name, the game is the same. She calls Gigi Dolin, Elektra Lopez, Thea Hail, Roxanne Perez, Ivy Nile, Natalya, and Jacy Jayne out in rhyme.
Tiffy Time is over, she continues, but Stratton hung with her and pushed her to her limit, and for that she gets her rematch whenever she wants it. She may be an idiot and an asshole, but she is—
Enter Tiffany Stratton.
She says she’s heard enough and she appreciates the flowers but did she really think the rematch was going to be optional? She’s getting a rematch, she deserves a rematch, and she knows Becky is the number one girl, but she’s Tiffany Stratton and she’s going to win her title back.
Big Time vs. Tiffy Time round two, tonight! Except it’s not happening because she wants her rematch on a bigger stage, and she says she wants it at No Mercy! Lynch says she can have it, but the result will be the same, and not because Tiffany isn’t good enough, but because she’s not hungry enough.
It comes down to who wants it more, and even now after ten years, Becky says she wants it more. Stratton says she should be thanking her because if her name never came out of her mouth, she’d be driving to the nearest retirement home to find another Hall of Famer to beat for more clout.
Lynch says she’s a better fighter than a talker so how about they go punch for punch right now? Becky attacks, Kiana James has Tiffany’s back and they put boots to the Man! Lynch gets hands on a chair and fights them off!
The D’Angelo Family are chatting about who should be their next challengers. They say they’re gonna offer all the worthy contenders a seat at the table and they’ll have some of Uncle Cesare’s tortellini.
They decide to invite the Creed Brothers, Garza and Carrillo, but there’s only one seat left at the table so they decide to let Nima and Price and Walker and Ledger fight it out for it.
Ilja Dragunov is interviewed backstage.
He says he’s gonna beat Carmelo Hayes, but in the meantime he’ll be watching the champion vs. champion match tonight.
Becky Lynch rolls up and challenges Stratton and James to a handicap match in the main event, tonight.
Meta-Four are doing a Matrix bit for some reason, in long black coats, and Noam Dar, in a gravelly American voice, says red pill or blue, it doesn’t matter, he’ll still be champion.
(Sidebar, remember that Premarin is a red pill and was the main prescribed form of estrogen in the 90s when the Wachowskis— two at-the-time closeted trans women— wrote the Matrix. It’s all part of the allegory, baby!)
And so we go to break.
Back from commercial, Dominik Mysterio rolls up on Trick Williams.
Williams tells him he sucks all the positive energy out of the room, but Dom says he’s glad he ran into him and he knows how he feels, living in a shadow. Trick says he doesn’t live in a shadow, Mysterio tries to sell him on what he can do for himself, and Williams says they’re not from the same place.
Nothing and no one will drive a wedge between Trick-Melo Gang, and Dom laughs and says he used to say the same thing about his deadbeat dad.

Gacy gives a parting shot and they leave Trick to think.

Dominik is a criminal, Dragon is a liar, and he’s gonna deal with both of them, next week on Raw.
