Trick Williams, Andre Chase, Ridge Holland SegmentÂ
Trick Williams: What? I like it. Look, man, you already know, Philly went crazy last week. But with Deadline around the corner, just to remind them, last year at Deadline was when I won the Iron Survivor Challenge, and things started to look good for Trick Willy. But that’s not what I’m out here to talk about. Last week, me and Bubba Ray put Ethan Page through a table, but no, that’s not what I’m out here to talk about, either. I’m here to talk about Ridge Holland, who pinned me, and think he got one on Trick Williams. News flash, Ridge, Trick Williams ain’t going out like that. What I’m trying to say is, Ridge, get your punk ass out here.
Andre Chase: Trick, Trick, Trick. I apologize for the interruption. You know I’ve got no beef with you, but I still have beef with Ridge Holland. I’m not done with him, not yet by a long shot.
Trick Williams: Look, look, I can see that Mr. Chase. After everything Ridge has done to you, after everything Ridge did to destroy Chase U, but as I’m thinking about it, after everything that he’s done, you still found out how to get back on your feet, right. Mr. Chase, I haven’t seen you face-to-face, but I think we all need to take a moment and recognize Mr. Chase for everything he’s done here in NXT, and all of the hard work he’s done. Yeah. Look, Mr. Chase, you’re a staple here in NXT, you’ve done everything here in NXT. Well, not everything when I think about it. You ain’t got a chance at this NXT Championship. So, how about for one day, one moment only, forget everything Ridge Holland has done to you.
Ridge Holland: Woah, woah, woah, this needs to stop, right now. Andre Chase getting an NXT Title shot? And you call yourself a champion, Trick? Ducking me for a man that I put in the ambulance two weeks ago. Professor, you need to learn that I moved on. And Trick, I made the famous ECW Arena fall deadly silent when I pinned your ass. And you know that I’m the biggest threat to your NXT Title.
Andre Chase:Â Woah, woah, Ridge, one second. After everything you put me through, everything you put the University through, I want one more match.
Ridge Holland: No.
Andre Chase: I’ll put the university on the line. If you win, Chase U is yours.
Ridge Holland: I don’t care about your precious little university. You’ve already gambled it away, and got it back. The only thing that I care about is the NXT Title.
Trick Williams: Woah, woah, woah, I think I got it. Ridge, you want a chance at the NXT Championship. Mr. Chase, you want a chance to whoop his ass. Okay, I got an idea. I think we go see AVA, we set it up next week. Ridge Holland versus Andre Chase, and the winner gets a match with me at NXT Deadline. But I ain’t gonna lie, I’m pulling for you, Mr. Chase. After everything you’ve been through, after all the hard work you put in over the past few years, after everything you’ve overcome, look, Chase U is out here for you. NXT loves Chase U. And Chase U loves NXT. You hear that, Ridge, that’s a connection, that’s a relationship that he has with the people. A relationship that he has with Duke, a relationship he has with Riley, and a relationship that he has with Thea.
Ridge Holland: I’ll take that.
Andre Chase: You’ll take what?
Ridge Holland: I want that. What he just said. I beat you, your relationship with Riley Osborne is done, you and the MVP Duke Hudson, I done. I beat you, and your relationship with Thea Hail is done. Look, Chase U, it’ll be done, and I’ll walk straight into Deadline, and challenge for the NXT Championship, while you have nothing. For man that can never win the big one, it’s quite a gamble, Mr. Chase. What are you going to do?
Andre Chase:Â You’re on. Ridge Holland, next week, I’m going to give you an Andre Chase University sized ass whipping.
