Part 1
Before the television tapings really kicked off, Triple H came out and had a very personal message for the Orlando crowd. He talked about how much Orlando meant to them and thanked everyone for coming out after a few awful days of weather.
Trending
When Asuka had to vacate her NXT Women's Title after she broke her collarbone a question that has been on everybody's mind was how NXT was going to fill her spot.
One wrong move ended his WWE career - Watch Now!
To be honest, there's no real filling Asuka's spot because she's irreplaceable. But NXT needed a new Women's Champion and we were about to find out how they planned on going about crowning a new champ.
William Regal came down and announced the new NXT Women's Champion would be determined in a fatal four-way match at NXT TakeOver: Houston.
Regal said the spots in the fatal four-way would be determined by triple threat matches.
Kairi Sane was the only person guaranteed to earn a spot. There were actually only two other spots officially filled during the taping on Thursday. But the rest of the night was interesting as well.
Part 2
Sanity came out and they wanted to talk to The Undisputed Era. One of the more exciting parts of NXT has to be Cole, Fish, and O'Reilly, and Sanity obviously needed to speak to them. After all, the first stones were thrown at NXT TakeOver: Brooklyn III.
A match was booked for later in the show pitting Adam Cole vs Eric Young. That match is something a lot of people had been waiting for.
Lars Sullivan and Oney Lorcan had a match. After a pretty good contest, the 300 pound Sullivan eventually pulled off a victory.
After the contest was over, Sullivan performed a beat down on Lorcan. Thankfully, Danny Burch ran down to make the save.
Heavy Machinery was out next to prove how dangerous they can be. They were out to put away some enhancement talent and did so with ease.
Liv Morgan squared off against Vanessa Bourne. These two had a pretty quick match and in the end, Liv Morgan would come out victorious.
Part 3
Fabian Aichner took on Kassius Ohno next on the show. These guys had a nice little match and got some spots in. But in the end, Kassius Ohno would pull down the victory. It's good to see him winning a match for a change. Ohno is probably one of the most underutilized guys in WWE right now.
Adam Cole vs Eric Young was next and the Full Sail Arena was thrilled to see this match go down. Adam Cole asked people how they survived before The Undisputed Era got there.
After a really fun match between the two, Adam Cole ended up proving his point by winning after a flying knee.
Adam Cole said they are untouchable, unstoppable, and undisputed. He also said this is their era.
Even though it is pretty awesome to have Cole, Fish, and O'Reilly in NXT, reports were their theme song left much to be desired.
Part 4
The next show started taping but before the action started the ring crew had to change the colour of the ropes to signify this episode would air in October.
Ruby Riot was set to face Billie Kay when Peyton Royce showed up to take her best friend's corner. Nikki Cross would soon come down to join Ruby Riot, making it a tag team match.
The four women had a nice tag match where Ruby Riot and Nikki Cross would come out victorious over Kay and Royce.
After that, a pretty big debut happened for NXT. It's been reported for a little while how Lio Rush was headed to WWE. Some were wondering what would happen next for Rush and those questions were answered in a huge way when he debuted in NXT.
Lio Rush was set to face Aleister Black in what promised to be an extremely large challenge. Unfortunately, it didn't go down because The Velveteen Dream decided to get involved.
Part 5
Kairi Sane made her NXT debut when she took on Aliyah. Sane and Aliyah had a short match that was around four-minutes. It ended as expected with The Pirate Princess Kairi Sane emerging victorious.
There was a pretty important contest next when Drew McIntyre put his NXT Title on the line against Roderick Strong.
After a pretty intense encounter, Drew McIntrye was victorious. The two exchanged a respectful handshake in the ring and Roderick walked up the ramp.
The Undisputed Era came out to meet Strong on the entrance ramp and it looked like they were discussing something. Could there be the possibility of adding another Ring Of Honor alum to this stable of NXT newcomers?
Next, there was an NXT Women's Title qualifier match between Peyton Royce, Nikki Cross, and Liv Morgan. In the end, Peyton Royce would win due to outside interference from the Undisputed Era.
Part 6
Lio Rush would finally get his chance to take on the Velveteen Dream. The NXT newcomer Rush wanted to prove himself but in the end, the Velveteen Dream won the encounter.
Next up, there was a match between Lars Sullivan and Danny Burch which ended with Sullivan celebrating in victory.
The Street Profits were out next and the won over some enhancement talent. After that, there was a rather exciting rematch from NXT TakeOver: Brooklyn III featuring Johnny Gargano and Andrade Cien Almas.
Cien Almas won after a pretty good contest. Reports were this is one you shouldn't miss.
Part 7
Sonya Deville, Ember Moon, and Ruby Riot faced off against each other looking to advance to crowd the new NXT Women's Champion match at TakeOver: Houston. Ember Moon won to take the spot.
Therefore, if I'm doing the math correctly here, three of the four competitors for the NXT Women's Title at NXT TakeOver: Houston are Ember Moon, Kairi Sane, and Peyton Royce.
Raul Mendoza vs Aleister Black was next and even though Black won the match he lost his vest in the process. The Velveteen Dream came down to steal Aleister's vest and taunt him the entire time. That might not be someone Dream wants to mess with.
Kassius Ohno took on Cezar Bononi and the former Chris Hero defeated the big Brazilian. It's nice to see Kassius Ohno is getting a little winning streak.
Soon it was time for the main event featuring The Undisputed Era vs SaNITy. The two teams had a pretty good match but The Authors Of Pain got involved. After the match, AOP beat SaNITy to let the NXT Tag Team Champions know they wanted their titles back.
