* Toxic Attraction {NXT Women's & Tag Team Champions} vs. Io Shirai, Kayden Carter & Kacy Catanzaro

The NXT Women's Champion Mandy Rose and Kayden Carter start the match. Kayden has a little fun with the champ to start, and that angers her so much that she sneak-attacks Io on the apron. Gigi Dolin tags in to bring the serious competitive side of things with a hurricanrana. Jacy Jayne tags in with a cheap shot, trips up on the ropes but still hits a neckbreaker for a 2-count. Jacy hits a step-up enzuigiri, Kayden makes the tag, Io comes in with a kneedrop and gets a 2-count. Io gives Jayne a dragon screw, Kayden tags in, Kacy tags in, Kayden kicks her in the head and Kacy hits a tope atomico for a 2-count. Mandy tags back in, Kacy does a headscissors takedown, hits a corkscrew plancha, Kayden hits a diving crossbody to the NXT Tag Team Champions, but then Mandy hits Shirai with a spinebuster!

This takes us to our first commercial break with picture-in-picture as Io gets some backup in the ring making Toxic Attraction re-group on the outside. Mandy gets back in against Kacy and goes to work on the dimunitive dynamo, but both sides tag and Io takes Dolin down with a crossbody! Io rolls her up for 2, takes her down in her corner, and hits pendulum knees to the chest. Kacy tags in to put her in an armbar, Gigi escapes a headlock, Kacy counters the front facelock with a jackknife pin for 2, and Gigi blasts her from behind off of a distraction. Mandy tags in to put her in the body scissors and that's how we end the picture-in-picture.

When we come back full-screen Kacy has a tough time escaping the body scissors with a chinlock, but she counters with a cover for 1. Mandy delivers a reverse sidewalk slam then puts her back in the body scissors, Kacy fights out with elbows, lands on her feet, kicks her off and both side make the hot tags. Io takes down Dolin with shoulder blocks, a body slam, stomps a mudhole in her, but Gigi breaks free with a jackbreaker. Mandy tags in, Io hits shoulder blocks, a flapjack, a meteora, a cheap shot by Dolin, but Io still hits the DIVING MOONSAULT! The Tag Team Champs break the count, Kacy and Kayden throw them out the ring, Mandy grabs Shirai's leg and tags out, but Gigi misses an elbow drop.

Kayden gets the hot tag, clotheslines Dolin, hits a dropkick, trips Jayne into the ring, sends Dolin into her partner, 2-for-1 attack in the corner, rolls through for a sidekick, then hits a twisting flatliner! Jacy distracts Carter, Kacy wipes her out, and Io drops the women's champ. Gigi took this time to pull Carter off the turnbuckles, hits a rolling abdominal stretch bomb, and gets the 3-count! WINNERS: TOXIC ATTRACTION!

Backstage, McKenzie Mitchell interviews Pete Dunne and asks him about Tony D'Angelo making comments about him. Dunne challenges D'Angelo to find him if he is trying to make a name for himself, then Trick Williams and Carmelo Hayes show up to dispute his "baddest man in NXT" moniker. Trick Williams says, "Trick and Melo here in your face calling you a bum, your momma's a bobblehead, and your daddy's a bootlicker. If you wanna fight we could fight, we can strap with the boots and make the ring talk. And it don't matter, 'cause Trick and Melo is bout it bout it." Dunne has no idea what he just said. Dunne and Carmelo trade verbal shots at each other, and apparently these two will battle tonight.

Toxic Attraction are still at ringside, but here comes Kay Lee Ray walking right past them for her match next! After the commercial break, we get a video of MSK walking the streets, and when they get to their destination they address has moved. Seems like they're going to find a shaman, but they book a flight. No idea where this is going.

* Kay Lee Ray vs. Sarray

Sarray looks for a handshake, and KLR uses that for a quick attack and goes on early offense. Sarray comes back with a springboard armdrag, hits a double stomp, and kicks her in the arm. KLR gets back and goes on fire and sees red in her eeys as bright as her hair. Sarray tries to make a comeback even hitting a hip attack, but KLR hits a rolling DDT for a near-fall. Sarray ducks a couple of clotheslines, rolls her up for 2, and applies a deep half crab making Ray crawl to the ropes to break the hold. Sarray kicks her in the leg, delivers a fisherman's suplex for a near-fall, KLR blocks a suplex, superkicks her, Sarray hits a roundhouse kick, but misses the basement dropkick. Kay Lee Ray hits the KLR Bomb on top of the announce table, hits the KLR Bomb in the middle of the ring, and gets the victory. WINNER: KAY LEE RAY!

Backstage, Joe Gacy gets interviewed about his comments towards Boa, and he doesn't want Boa to hide behind a mask and feel ashamed. Gacy turns his attention to Harland and asks him to reach out to him, so tonight he's doing this match for them. Breaktime, and when we come back they promote WrestleMania for two nights in Dallas in 2022.

We get a video of Bron Breakker feeling excited after his first overseas trip with NXT, Raw and SmackDown superstars. He then vows to meet Tommaso Ciampa again in the ring to beat his ass.

* Joe Gacy vs. Boa

Gacy offers a handshake, Boa kicks it away, Gacy with a side headlock and tosses him over the ropes. Boa comes back with a sunset flip for 1, dropkicks him, and he's ready for a fight. Gacy drops him on the ropes, hits a backbreaker, gets a 1-count, delivers a suplex for 2, and twists his head. Boa throws him off, blocks his attacks, hard kick and knees to the chest, and delivers a double-arm suplex. The lights start to flicker, Boa gets in a trance, and choke Gacy on the ropes! Referee Aja Smith counts up to 5 when Boa wouldn't release him, and when the lights return to normal Boa is staring at his hand as he backs away. WINNER by DQ: JOE GACY.

We see Diamond Mine training with a video of Kushida and Jiro in a promo from last week. Malcolm Bivens speaks on the two as a comedy act, and says The Creed Brothers will finish them because "Diamond Mine is forever!" Breaktime.

After the break, Solo Sikoa was about to get interviewed but Grayson Waller interrupts him. Waller starts to instigate about LA Knight, but Knight shows up to complain. Sikoa speaks up and says that when in the streets you handle your business, so tonight three men will enter and only one walks out. Looks like a triple threat match later!

* The Creed Brothers vs. Jacket Time

Julius Creed's first move is a scoop slam that nearly drops Ikemen Jiro on his head. Brutus Creed tags in and slams him down to the back of his head.

Odyssey Jones shows up to attack Roderick Strong! Jones, Kushida and Jiro hold the ring down while Diamond Mine scatter and leave the ring.

Toxic Attraction are in the parking lot leaving when an interviewer stops them, but they cut him off to gloat about their success and titles. "Toxic Attraction is the attraction." Mandy says that she isn't scared of Kay Lee Ray and she is not next in line. Raquel Gonzalez shows up on her motorcycle telling Mandy that she'll deal with her later and to keep the title warm for her. Raquel enters the arena and doesn't waste any time calling out Dakota Kai. "Get your ass out here ahorita mismo!" Dakota comes out laughing at Raquel saying that it felt good to hit her with the shovel. Suddenly Kai is attacked from behind, by Cora Jade! Dakota and Cora have to be separated by referees, and Raquel tells Cora that she wants a piece of Dakota first. Cora accepts this with mutual respect.

Andre Chase gives another lesson, this time on mental toughness. His student questions him on his mental toughness, another student speaks for him, and Chase kicks out the initial student. After besting Duke Hudson at his own poker game last week, Cameron Grimes will be in action next.

After the break, we see Grizzled Young Veterans working on a ploy to steal a stranger's phone to order food. The lesson is if they can distract a stranger then they can distract a referee.

* Cameron Grimes vs. Ru Feng

Grimes outwrestles Ru Feng and tells him to kiss his grits. Feng hits a roundhouse to the chest, puts him in the abdominal stretch, and out comes Duke Hudson to get a closer look. Grimes counters with a hiptoss, fights back with flying forearms, running boot to the chin, diving crossbody, sees Hudson at ringside, and goes to the moon with The Cave-In for the win. WINNER: CAMERON GRIMES!

Duke Hudson is in the ring, tells Grimes that he came into his poker room, played his chips, used his cards, but somehow Grimes won. "I need to know, was it dumb luck or did you dupe me?" Grimes says WHAT like the crowd was doing, and he reminds everyone that he beat Duke saying it was fun. Hudson: "That wasn't fun for me, you stupid little hick! I lost a lot of money because of you! But that will never happen again, mark my words. Never again will I lose to someone who looks like an ugly filthy rotten troll living under a bridge." Grimes: "What's with the name-calling, huh? First you call me easy money, then you sit here and you call me a hick. But that's OK because Cameron Grimes has been called a hick before. It may be because I'm a little hairy, it may be because I'm a little smelly, or it may just be because I'm a little grimy. But Cameron Grime holds it down. It doesn't matter if it's in this ring. It doesn't matter if it's at your poker table. And it doesn't matter if it's at Wall Street. Cameron Grimes holds it DOWN. Now, I may like to play dumb sometimes. But last week, I played you. Hahahaha." Hudson shouts at Grimes for being out-hustled, and challenges him for a Poker Showdown next week. Grimes accepts.
