Hayes says there are levels to this game.  That trophy puts you on a high level, but this title puts me on the highest level.  You can't beat me once.

Dar stops Trick from saying his catchphrase and Dar says the adults are talking.  Dar says that almost sounds like a challenge.  That would be the biggest mistake of your life.  Step up to me and put the NXT Title on the line tonight.

Trick slows things down and he says he knows that Dar is trying to take advantage of Melo because of Battleground.

Dar says that is obviously what he is trying to do.  Dar says Hayes is doing what Lash told him to do.  You are counting your minutes because you cannot do it night after night at the highest level.  

Dar asks Lash what it is she was talking about and Lash says it is Load Management.

Carmelo says if Dar wants a title match, he is getting it tonight.
