Your host is Sam Roberts and he is joined by Wade Barrett and Brandon Walker.

We see Finn Balor walking into the building and we also see Pete Dunne arriving with Danny Burch and Oney Lorcan.

McKenzie Mitchell says she talked to the Grizzled Young Veterans and they vowed to win.  She says Ember Moon has wanted to make history by winning the Dusty Cup.  Raquel Gonzalez says that they are the favorites and will win the Dusty Cup tonight.

We have a video package for the Dusty Rhodes Women's Tag Team Classic..

Sam asks Wade how much it means for the winner.  Wade says it will be a big moment for the winners and Shayna and Nia are watching to see who they will be facing.  Brandon says he loves Shotzi and Ember as a team but you have to look at Raquel Gonzalez and she will win tonight.

We see Io Shirai, Toni Storm, and Mercedes Martinez arriving at the building earlier today.

We have a video package for the Women's Title Match.

Sam says Io is the best female wrestler today, but there is no champion's advantage.  He says he doesn't see Io leaving with the title as a possibility.  Brandon says that Io has the experience of being champion and she will defend the title.  Wade says he knows how hard it is to defend a title in a Triple Threat match and he says he lost a title in a Triple Threat match.  He says he is going with Mercedes Martinez.

We take a look at the Men's Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic.

Wes Lee and Nash Carter are with McKenzie and she asks them how they feel.  Wes says he hasn't been able to sleep since Wednesday.  He says they have been in the WWE for a short time but they are in the Dusty Finals.  Nash says the Grizzled Young Veterans are going to be the Grizzled Young Losers for the second time because the Cup is theirs.

Wade says MSK have been superb from go and they have exceed expectations.  This is their first Takeover.  Wade says he had his first PPV match . . . 

The Former Eli Drake shows up and sends Sam away.  He says he is not here to suck up to Wade because he will drag Wade out of retirement.  He has a scoop for Barstool.  He says he is L.A. Knight.  You talk about NXT being the premiere place for talent.  What that means is a stacked deck.  While you are playing cards, I am rolling dice.  I have changed the game.  If you are holding a title right now, I am coming for you.  As you see these bewildered cross-eyed half wits, they will be asking whose game is it, it is L.A. Knight's.

We take a look at the North American Title Match with a video package.

Sam mentions that Gargano is Johnny Takeover and KUSHIDA made his name in Japan.  You wouldn't have expected this match two years ago.  Bradon says the Way exists for Johnny Gargano and he will find a way to crawl out of here with the title.  

We take a look at the Men's Title Match with a video package.

Sam says he has been waiting for this match for so long and he says this will be the best match of the year.  Sam asks what is the difference between this Balor and the prior version of Finn.  Brandon says he has a mean streak now.
