Roxanne Perez, AVA, Tatum Paxley Segment
Roxanne Perez: Last week is exactly what happens when you get sick and tired of trying to play by all the rules. That sweet, innocent, Roxanne Perez that was just happy to be here is no longer here. And it’s on your hands, because let’s be honest, this isn’t something that happened overnight. No, this has been boiling up inside of me for months and months. This is a culmination of an entire year. You guys remember Roadblock, one year ago. After defeating a living legend in Meiko Satomura, and giving everything I had, I collapsed inside this ring. And yeah, of course I collapsed after four months of me carrying this entire women’s division on the back of my shoulders. The pressure, the anxiety, the exhaustion I had to deal with after having the best rookie year in WWE history. And how was I was rewarded? My title was taken from me, and no one cared. Don’t worry, Roxanne, your time will come again. You’re so young, it will swing back around. 12 months of me busting my ass in Steel Cage matches, Weapon’s Wild matches, Devil’s Playground matches, while everyone else was too busy drooling over Tiffy Time or Becky Lynch winning a championship she could never win.
Okay, you know what, let’s talk about Becky, because I want to talk about that. Me and Becky Lynch, face-to-face, inside this ring, and you guys acted like I didn’t even exist. You guys want to know something? I went home crying that night because how everyone made me feel. How pathetic, right? So, screw you guys, screw all of you guys for booing me, and making me feel like I’m worthless. But now, I don’t care what you guys think. I don’t care about anyone’s stupid opinions. I am the most decorated woman in WWE NXT History. At the age of only 22, Breakout Tournament Winner, Iron Survivor Winner, Women’s Tag Champion, Women’s Champion. I’ve won everything, which brings me to Lyra Valkyria. You know, after Vengeance Day, I expected Lyra to come to me and say, hey, I’m sorry Roxanne, I’m so sorry that Latina Dancing Idiot, and my weird friend that I pretend to like screwed up our match. So, let’s run it back, let me give you the rematch that you deserve.
My name never came out of Lyra’s mouth. You know what she did? She went after the tag titles. That was when I realized, the only way I was going to get what I deserved, was by breaking rules, and doing it my way. And now everyone wants to cheer me, right? Now everyone wants to support me, but where the hell were all of you guys when Indi Hartwell was holding my championship? No one cared then. The NXT Universe reminds me of little Roxanne Perez, naive, confused, you don’t know what you want, but guess what? I know exactly what I want now. And I don’t need anyone’s support or anyone’s approval. It’s funny the way history repeats itself, right, Lyra? One year later, you’re the one taking that ride on the ambulance. And that pain you’re feeling right now, isn’t the pain from your arm, no, that’s the pain of your title being ripped away from you and being awarded to me. So now, thanks to the prodigy, you all have witnessed the rise and fall of Lyra Valkyria. So, AVA, you can go ahead and come out here, and vacate the title from Lyra and award it to the woman who deserves it, the woman who never lost it in the first place. Me.
AVA: Roxanne, you have so much to say. You talked about all of your accomplishments. But somehow you must have forgotten how you completely stepped out of line last week and put Lyra Valkyria in the ambulance for absolutely no good reason.
Roxanne Perez: Yeah, yeah, poor Lyra, I’m the worst. Let’s just skip to the part where you wish Lyra a speedy recovery, and you name me the new NXT Women’s Champion.
AVA: Roxanne, I wasn’t finished talking yet. Please don’t interrupt, again. Now, as I was saying, we didn’t just immediately strip you of your championship last year, we waited until we saw the full extent of your injuries. And while I may not have been the GM at the time, I do think…
Roxanne got into a quick brawl with Tatum Paxley to close the segment.

Trick Williams & Meta Four Segment
Trick Williams: Yo, yo, yo, cut the music. Now, usually I step into here, I get into this ring, I grab the microphone and I do my thing. But today, I’m struggling to find the words to say what I really need to say. I’m not going to lie, man. I’m pissed off. I’m angry. I feel betrayed. Family means something to me. When I say that you’re my brother, that means I got your back. When I say that you’re my brother, that means I take food off my plate to make sure you eat, too. And that’s what I did for two years, Melo. I had your back. For two years, I watched you succeed, I watched you get every single accolade that NXT has to offer, with a smile on my face because that’s what brothers do. Melo, why? I’m not going to lie. Melo, watching you succeed made me want to step up my game. It made me put the extra work in. I went into Shawn Michaels office, and I asked him, what do I need to do to take my game to the next level? And Melo you said, yes, you said that you were happy for me. I had no idea what was going to be on the other side of me taking a chance on myself, but that’s when Trick Willy was born.
I saw it, the fans saw it, and Melo, you saw it, too. Melo, I wanted you to be happy for me, the same way I was happy for you. But that’s when I heard the whispers. People saying Melo ain’t really happy for you. Melo making faces after your victories. No, man, I don’t believe that. And then John Cena told me himself, John Cena said, Trick, Melo is hating on you. I said, no, Melo is my boy, and Trick N Melo Gang, we always going to be here. And Melo that’s when I needed to see you, face-to-face, and I asked you, Melo, did you attack me? And you looked me in the eyes, and you lied to my face. Come to think about it, you’ve been lying for a long time. You lied about attacking me from behind. You lied about what was going on with Dragunov.
And the part that hurts the most is, you lied about being my brother. But it’s cool. Without all those lies; you found the one time to tell the truth. You told the truth about one thing, Melo. You stepped into this ring, and you told everybody, the reason why you did what you did is because we’re not on the same level. And I have to agree with you, Melo. We’re not on the same level. We’ve never been on the same level. I don’t care if you put on some Timberland boots, you on a step stool with a Ludacris afro, you still will never be on the same level as Trick Williams with your little punk ass. Melo, I had your back, and you stabbed me in mine. So, this is how we’re going to do it. At Stand & Deliver, we’re going to have a match, and I’m going to pay you back for everything that you did to me, and I’m going to put a little bit more on it. And I guarantee the whole crowd is going to chant, Whoop That Trick.
Noam Dar: Hello, hello, hello. Trick Williams, hear me now. Your rise has been epic, but let’s be real, we are sick and tired of hearing you complain about Melo, and how he smashed you up. Because the reality is, you deserved it.
Trick Williams: Noam, this ain’t the same man you used to know. I suggest you say what you need to say or you go ahead and mind your business and leave me alone.
Noam Dar: Trickster, calm. You and I are not that different. At Vengeance Day, you lost your best friend. Two weeks ago, I lost what mattered the most to me, the Heritage Cup. But the difference is, I didn’t run home, put my head in a pillow and cry about it. I made the big boy decision to move on to bigger and better things.
Trick Williams: Noam, I told you once, and I’m going to say it again. I’m really not in the mood, mind your business, and leave me alone.
Noam Dar: Okay, Tricky, I’ll make it really simple. I’m here to steal all that hype. Because let’s be serious, there’s nobody hotter than you right now.
Trick Williams: Looking the way Lash looking at me, I think everybody agrees.
Lash Legend: Now, Trick, don’t even play because you already know what’s up. You need to be listening to what Noam is trying to tell you, boo.
Noam Dar: You listen to Lash, and you listen to me. Supernova 11 is ready to blast off. And I can’t think of a better way to do it than by knocking you out. The one trick pony Williams. Next week, we’re not going to talk about it, we’re going to fight about it.
