* Chase Parker vs. Samir Singh

Sunil Singh gets on the apron with his camera, allowing Samir to atttack first off the distraction. Parker hits a one-footed dropkick, Samir dumps him out the ring, Sunil gets in some cheap shots behind the ref's back, and Matt Martel clotheslines Sunil to even the sides. Parker gets back in the ring to go on the offensive, he gets tossed onto the apron, avoids a swing from Sunil, and Samir hits a neckbreaker over the ropes to gain the advantage. Samir hits a diving press from the apron, delivers a suplex on the floor, a suplex in the middle of the ring, floats over to cover for 2, goes up top, connects with a diving back elbow, covers for 2, puts him in a chinlock, clubs him on the back, and drops him with a pendulum backbreaker. Parker sticks a boot up in his face, punches him a couple of times, Samir catches him in a sleeper hold three times, and Parker breaks free each time by backing him into a corner. Parker sends him into the turnbuckles sternum-first, catapults him into the corner, punches him down, jawbreaker, jumping kick to the side of the head, sliding trip, slingshot elbow drop, and Samir rolls out the ring. Samir takes off his jacket, gets in the ring pretending to be Samir, but the referee knows they are completely different and kicks him out. Samir gets in the ring with the Bollywood slate, but accidentally hits his brother when Parker moved out the way! Parker hits a flapjack onto the top turnbuckle and covers for 3. WINNER: Chase Parker.

We get comments from the #1 contender to the Cruierweight Title, Curt Stallion. "I didn't think that it's gonna take until 2021 to get the WWE NXT Cruiserweight Championship match that I earned when I won that fatal 5-way match a few weeks back on 205 Live. Santos Escobar, Campeón de Cruiserweights, dude, congrats on ducking and dodging me for this long. But, you and I both know that each week that passes I'm getting better, and that's not a good thing for you. You've taken something precious from me, and that's time. See, when you and your goons Legado Del Fantasma jumped me from behind and kept me from my Cruiserweight opportunity on NXT, you also stole time from me. And Curt 'The Lone Star' Stallion always collects his debts, and yours is gonna be paid in the NXT Cruiserweight Championship. See you soon."
