Things are even early on until King dropkicks Dragon Lee off the top buckle. King goes for a move but gets caught in the ropes after being distracted by the arrival of Trey Bearhill.

Refs try to hold the big man back. Lee takes advantage, hitting a Tope Con Giro on the outside.

Lyra Valkyria and Tatum Paxley will face Elektra Lopez and Lola Vice in tag action next week.

Booker praises Lexis King for his debut but then asks what is up with the bandana. Keep it consistent, Book!!

Cora Jade just wanted to see what was in the ref's pocket . . .

Backstage, Edris Enofe and Malik Blade talk about the Dusty Classic and how everyone has spoken about Trick and Melo all year. Brinley Reese runs in as a sort of personal trainer.

She tries to get Edris and Malik to do moves that will give them a six-pack, but they show her that they already have those. She agrees but says, 'Hit me up' if they need help.

We head back to the ranch for the third time. Stratton tries to keep herself going as she cleans out the stall. She says she's going to erase it all from her mind. Henley says that she lasted longer than she thought she would.

She tries to move the last shovel of poop but drops it on her face. Stratton says it wasn't work but hell and the worst day of her life. She says something is wrong with Henley if this is how she likes to live.

As she declares that she's done with all the work, she trips on some horse poop before falling into a trough of water.

Axiom makes the tag to Frazer, and he uses his speed to land offense on Tank. He hits a Missile Dropkick off the top, but Hank breaks up the pin. Tank hits a Bubba Bomb but tags Hank in instead. He hits another slam for a two-count.

Axiom jumps up for a move, but Hank catches him (after hitting a blind tag) and sends him into the corner. He bodyslams him twice before tagging Tank in. Tank hits a Pescado splash over the rope for a two-count.

OTM is whining that they lost against the D'Angelo Family even though they initiated the outside interference. They randomly encounter Jaida Parker in the parking lot and she says a lot of stuff that I didn't understand.
I think it boiled down to the fact that the group needs a female star since D'Angelo and Stacks now have Adrianna Rizzo.

Dolin takes advantage after Jade misses a kick. She hits a few strikes and an STO before landing a basement dropkick with Jade in the bottom ropes.
Dolin goes for her finisher, but Jade holds on to the referee. Dolin falls over, and Jade hits her DDT to pick up the win.

Dolin stands up and hits a few strikes, but Jade pulls her into the middle rope. Jade hits an elbow to Gigi's back and a knee in the corner for a two-count.

Backstage, Gallus is complaining about their loss earlier in the night. Ridge Holland walks by, but Joe Coffey calls him out.

He mocks his heartfelt words from his sit-down interview last week. Coffey also says he won't be lasting in NXT very long.

Kelly Kincaid interviews Men's Breakout Tournament winner Oba Femi about when he plans to cash in his contract. Lexis King interrupts and says that Femi is lucky Trey Bearhill interfered in his match because it would have been him and Femi in the finals instead.

King brags that he'll win the North American title match tonight, and Femi will be the next NXT Champ. He walks off, but Femi may have plans for tonight's main event after that interaction.

We then go to an NXT Anonymous shot of Jacy Jayne explaining how they (she and some students) can save Chase University. She shows the students a plan on her phone.

Scrypts tries to interfere with a move off the top, but Adrianna Rizzo pushes him off the top buckle. He hits Lucien Price with a splash instead. Stacks goes outside to take Nima out while D'Angelo hits Price with a Fisherman's Buster for the win.

Result - The D'Angelo Family defeats OTM by pin.

D'Angelo hits Lucien Price with a spinebuster for a near fall. He lines Price up for a Fisherman's Buster, but Stacks hits a move instead. OTM pushes Stacks out of the ring before hitting a tandem slam for a close call. Price hits a Powerslam, but Tony D kicks out.

The Don of NXT fights off both men. Stacks takes Nima out with a clothesline over the top. Tony D then sends Stacks over the top onto both members of OTM. Stacks and Tony D hit Badda Bing Badda Boom, but Nima and Stacks fall onto the pin.

We return to the ranch with Stratton trying to push a wheelbarrow and carry hay in her heels. She wants a break because her heels are killing her. A hand comes up to say that Buttercup, a horse, needs to be cleaned because she had an accident.

Tiffany reluctantly washes the horse before claiming that everything's done. Fallon says, 'You can't put a clean horse in a dirty stall,' meaning that Stratton has to clean up horse poop. At least she got a pink rake to do it with.

Oro gets a few pin attempts, but Briggs shrugs off most of the offense. Mensah slaps him in the face a few times, but Briggs picks him up and slams him down with a thunderous chokeslam.

Despite interference from Dar and Jakara, Briggs recovers to land a Clothesline from Hell for the win.

Result - Josh Briggs defeats Oro Mensah by pin.

Briggs slams Oro right off the bat. He hits a splash in the corner and goes for another move, but Mensah fishhooks him and lands a knee strike. It doesn't do much, as Briggs hits him with a side suplex. Oro runs around the ring after Lash distracts the ref.

Who would have thought, though? Meta-Four interferes in a match!!!!

Luca Crusifino is petitioning for a reversal of his match from the Breakout Tournament. He shows that his leg was under the ropes, constituting a rope break. Ava says she'll talk to HBK. Dragon Lee returns from his VISA issues and says he is ready to return to work.

Lexis King then walks up with a pre-drafted contract for the North American Championship, which Lee signs without reading.

I wonder if there will be a horse with a pink mane and/or saddle for Tiffie . . . .

Meta-Four is backstage mocking how Briggs, Jensen, and Henley went their separate ways last week. Briggs walks up and says that they broke up because they all had different goals. He and Oro have words, leading to the next match.

Lola says everyone loves her because they are sheep and that everyone loves her 'Latina Heat.' The only heat Lyra sees is from Lopez. She compliments Lopez as she holds Legado Del Fantasma together. Lyra also says Vice will never tell Lopez she won't be cashing in her contract for a tag team title shot. Lopez then decks Valkyria, but Tatum Paxley makes the save.

Lola Vice comes out with Elektra Lopez to say Tatum Paxley saved her last week. The champion says she thought Lola was going to turn the division upside down when she got here, but instead, all she's done is talk and shake her b**t on Instagram.

Lyra says despite having a deep division, she will end 2024 as she started it - as champion. She isn't forgetting about Blair Davenport. Valkyria adds that a 20-person battle royal will take place next week, with the final four competitors competing in a fatal four-way, with the winner facing her at Vengeance Day.

Before the commercial hit, Lyra Valkyria was heading to the ring. What's on the champ's mind??

Up next, we get a pre-taped segment from earlier today on Fallon Henley's ranch. Stratton hasn't arrived yet but then shows up in a bikini top skirt and fluffy Pretty Deadly-type jacket. Henley recommends that she change into better clothes suited for the work. Henley says they need to clean the stalls, the horses, the equipment.

Baron makes the tag to Bron and he drops Mark. He does the same with Wolfie, hitting a thunderous Lariat off the ropes. Bron the German Suplexes both members of Gallus as Wolfgang holds Mark.

Bron goes for his Spear, but Corbin tags in. They briefly argue, but Bron pushes him aside to Spear Wolfgang. Corbin then hits End of Days on Mark Coffey for the win.

Result - Bron Breakker and Baron Corbin defeat Gallus (Mark Coffey and Wolfgang) by pin.

Mark is pulled from the ring, and Corbin chases. His hand hits the steel post after Mark ducks. Gallus works on Corbin's hand on the outside.

Corbin lands a clothesline off the top, but Wolfgang breaks the pin. He then slams Bron, but Mark Coffey comes in. Corbin hits him with a Deep Six to leave everyone grounded.

Bron and Corbin keep trying to walk before the other on the way to the ring. Bron catches Wolfgang and slams him. He tags Corbin in and hits a big splash in the corner.

Wolfgang and Mark distract Corbin to get a brief moment of control. Corbin and Bron try to regroup on the outside during the commercial break.

Another backstage brawl on NXT.

Before the next match, Trick and Carmelo discuss how Melo didn't listen to Trick last week. Melo then says he got himself and Trick the last spot in the Dusty Classic since they don't know when Ilja will be officially cleared for his title match.

Trick is hesitant at first because he wants to keep his focus on Ilja. Carmelo talks Trick into becoming "Two Titles Trick," and all is well.

The women trade a few shots before Lyons drops Blair with a kick to the chest. Nikkita adds a brainbuster and a German Suplex. Lyons adds a hip attack and a Samoan Drop for a two-count. Lyons misses a kick, allowing Blair to hit a dropkick to the chest.

Lyons lands a short kick before sending Blair out of the ring. She goes for a spinning heel kick, but Blair ducks, causing Lyons to blast her knee on the ring post. She tries re-entering the ring, but Davenport hits her with a chop block. She adds her knee strike for the win.

Result - Blair Davenport defeats Nikkita Lyons by pin.

Davenport sends Lyons into the ring post, shoulder first. She adds a stomp off the apron for good measure. Blair hits another stomp off the top buckle. Blair tries to keep Lyons grounded with a headlock and a Guillotine Choke, but Lyons reverses it with a short suplex.

We're shown footage of another attack in the NXT Parking Lot, where Blair Davenport blindsided Nikkita Lyons. Nikkita gets the better of Blair by the time they make it inside the building, and it looks like we're starting the night off with these two!

After a recap of last week's episode, we go to a 'moments ago' scenario where Blair Davenport tried to blindside Nikkita Lyons in the dangerous parking lot. The two are fighting on their way to the ring, so the match opens up the show.

Lyons kicks Davenport and slams her twice. She adds a suplex and a jumping forearm in the corner. Davenport goes for a stomp off the top, but Lyons evades it and lands a spinning kick for a near fall.
