WWE NXT REPORT: THE UNDISPUTED ERA IS BACK, IO CONFRONTS SHAYNA, MANSOOR, AND MORE

By Richard Trionfo on 2019-05-22 20:59:00

We start off with a look at what happened last week on NXT with the tag title situation.

William Regal welcomes everyone to NXT.  He mentions last week's Tag Title Match and he says there are no tag team champions.  The Street Profits pinned the Viking Raiders, but it was not a legitimate victory.  At Takeover, the Street Profits will face the Forgotten Sons, Oney Lorcan and Danny Burch, and Kyle O'Reilly and Bobby Fish in a Ladder Match.

We are at Full Sail University and your announcers are Beth Phoenix, Mauro Ranallo, and Nigel McGuinness.

The Undisputed Era makes their way to the ring.

Adam Cole says they have heard the whispers in the locker room.  All of you morons are probably wondering if the rumors are true.  The Undisputed Era is going nowhere.  They are stronger than they have ever been and they are on the same page.  This is a message to everyone in the locker room.  Your contract may say NXT Superstar, but we own you.  We will not stop until we run this place.  We will continue to take what we want, when we want.  We will soon be draped in championship gold.  That begins in just two weeks at Takeover.  Kyle O'Reilly and Bobby Fish will regain the Tag titles.  Adam says he will take the NXT Championship from Johnny Gargano.

NXT Men's Champion Johnny Gargano interrupts and makes his way to the stage.

Johnny says he will save Adam some time.  If you want him to put his title on the line, then he will do it.  Johnny wants Adam to tell the truth.  He wants Adam to admit that he cannot beat Johnny on his own.

Adam wants a time out and he asks what kind of an idiot is Johnny.  Adam reminds Johnny he won the first fall.

Johnny says you keep reminding him about that, but do you understand how math works?  You didn't shock the school system.  Math is hard.  Johnny says he will explain it for Adam very slowly.  In a two out of three falls match, you need to win TWO falls.  You only won ONE fall.  Johnny says he won TWO falls.  That makes him the NXT Champion.  Do you understand?

Adam tells Johnny to shut up.  He says you can be as condescending as you want, but it eats you alive that he pinned Johnny by himself in New York.  In two weeks, Adam Cole is going to do it again.  As far as tonight is concerned, they are celebrating. . . 

Matt Riddle comes from behind and he goes after The Undisputed Era.  They work over Riddle but Gargano makes his way to the ring and Riddle kicks Strong to the floor and Gargano takes care of Cole.

Referees come to the ring to separate everyone.  

We go to commercial.

Match Number One:  Sean Maluta versus Mansoor

They lock up and Maluta with a wrist lock and Mansoor tries for a reversal but Maluta holds on and takes Mansoor to the mat.  Mansoor escapes and hits a head scissors take down followed by a drop kick.  Maluta with a back heel kick and boot to the head and Samoan drop.  Maluta with a boot into the corner and he goes to the turnbuckles.  Maluta with a Codebreaker for a near fall.  Maluta works on the neck.

Mansoor gets out of the hold but Maluta with a forearm.  Mansoor with a back elbow and boot followed by a German suplex.  Mansoor with a running kick in the corner and he goes to the apron and hits a forearm and follows with a slingshot neck breaker.  Mansoor with a swinging reverse suplex for the three count.

Winner:  Mansoor

Cathy Kelley is outside William Regal's office and we hear screaming.  They leave the office and Cathy knocks on the door.  Regal is asked about what happened earlier.  Regal says that he told the Undisputed Era that the way they conducted themselves the last two weeks, Matt Riddle will face Roderick Strong at Takeover.  Tonight, Matt Riddle and Johnny Gargano will face Kyle O'Reilly and Bobby Fish.

We go to commercial.

We are back and the NXT North American Champion, Velveteen Dream makes his way to the ring.  

Dream says you can say the Dream is in high demand.  That means the people want to feel the Dream.  People want to touch The Dream.  People want to hold The Dream.  He is the North American Champion so you cannot just feel or touch the Dream and he is too big to hold.  If you are going to say his name, you better say it correct.

Dream is interrupted by Tyler Breeze who makes his way to the ring.

Tyler says Prince Pretty is home.  He says much like Dream, when he was in NXT, he had everybody talking him.  Ever since the Fashion left NXT, it feels a little lifeless and dull.  There's wannabe impersonators and cheap knockoffs and as flattering as it is, and it is flattering, there can be only one Prince Pretty . . . Tyler Breeze.

Dream says to allow the North American Champion to welcome Tyler back to the Dream's NXT.  The spotlight of the NXT Universe wants a real man, not a boy, especially a boy who plays cops and robbers.  Just because you can't cut it on Monday or Tuesday does not mean you can call for a spotlight here.

Breeze says not to confuse couldn't hack it or couldn't cut it and go with uninspired.  Dream, you inspire him.  That North American Championship inspires him.  An inspired Tyler Breeze is too much and too big for you to handle. 

Dream tells the Dollar Store Detective that maybe he forgot in catering that they do things different in his NXT.  He says the line starts outside so that is where you should go.  The Dream does not want to leave a bad taste in your mouth so how about a selfie with the champ.

Tyler asks if he should take a selfie with the champ?  Tyler says it is a monumental moment.  It is the first time they have been in the ring together.  Dream tells Tyler to make up his mind quick because he doesn't have all day.

Tyler agrees to do it and he has one last piece of advice.  When you put your phone number on your trunks and no one calls, it is because no one is interested.  Tyler punches Dream and leaves the ring.

We go to commercial.

We are back and Tyler Breeze is asked why did he attack Velveteen Dream.  Tyler says he is an NXT OG.  He wanted to introduce Velveteen Dream to an inspired Prince Pretty.
