The NXT Champion ran into The Undisputed Era's locker room, looking to bring in Kyle O'Reilly as his tag team partner. It was a tense moment, as Finn Balor asked if he was still sucking his meals through a straw.
Roddy Strong almost attacked him at that moment, but Adam Cole held him back. O'Reilly accepted Balor's proposal. They'll face the NXT Tag Team Champs next week.

NXT Cruiserweight Champion Santos Escobar explains what a champion is
Santos Escobar called himself the "Champion of Champions" in NXT. He said a real champion doesn't have a curse like Johnny Gargano or a glass jaw like Finn Balor. Karrion Kross had the look, the ability, and the woman on his arm, but couldn't even defend the title according to Escobar. Maybe the belt was too heavy for him.
Santos Escobar has stayed strong, knocking down every challenger that has come his way. The NXT Cruiserweight Champion is now looking to Legado Del Fantasma to become the NXT Tag Team Champions once they win the Dusty Cup. They were interrupted by LHP, who rushed Raul Mendoza and Joaquin Wilde.
They couldn't fend off the two-on-three beat down. However, they didn't need to as Curt Stallion, the real No. 1 contender to the NXT Cruiserweight Championship, made the save. Stallion had LHP's back tonight, and it looks like Legado Del Fantasma's days could be numbered.
McKenzie interviewed Killian Dain and Drake Maverick, who will face MSK on NXT next week in the Dusty Cup. Dain was asked what he expected out of Lee and Carter, but Maverick took over the interview. He said that MSK is a great team, and he knows just how impressive they are. However, only one team can hold the Dusty Cup at the end of all this, and that will be he and Killian Dain.
The Beast of Belfast was happy with that, telling Drake that he did a great job.
