Von, you couldn’t put one foot in front of the other if it wasn’t for Mr. Stone, so what makes you think in his absence that you can hang with The King? Because you can’t, and it’s going to be the same old song and dance, and everyone is going to be happy when they look up and see The King’s hand raised up in victory.

The Supernova Sessions With Special Guest: Roxanne Perez & Lyra Valkyria
Noam Dar: Hello, hello, hello. Hear me now, live from the moon, welcome to another edition of Supernova Sessions: Live In The USA. We are four days away from Stand & Deliver, Mensah, please remind me, who will be standing and delivering all over that show?
Oro Mensah: Meta Four, my brother.
Noam Dar: Because that’s us. Now, onto tonight’s business, ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the first guest, Roxanne Perez. Bring her out. Roxanne, do you like how the couches are on separate parts of the ring?
Roxanne Perez: Yeah, I don’t care, just bring her out here.
Noam Dar: Okay, ladies and gentlemen, our other guest, The NXT Women’s Champion, Lyra Valkyria. Let’s just take a moment now, ladies. Now, onto Saturday night.
Roxanne Perez: I can’t wait for Saturday. That’s the day that I get back the title I never lost.
Lyra Valkyria: Oh, here we go, just stop, okay. Just stop. I am so sick of this. I am so sick of hearing you say the same damn thing, over and over again. Do you want to know why you’re not the NXT Women’s Champion?
Roxanne Perez: Why, Lyra, because the title was taken away from me?
Lyra Valkyria: Indi Hartwell climbed a ladder faster than you. Last year, at Stand & Deliver, you had the opportunity to regain your title, and you failed. Oh, that wasn’t your fault, you didn’t blame yourself for that, Roxanne. You blamed Indi. Oh, how about Vengeance Day, our match? Oh, you lost that one, but that wasn’t your fault either. No, no, no, you blamed Lola Vice for that one because she cashed in her breakout tournament contract. No, no, no, that was all Lola’s fault, and that was so sudden and shocking, kind of like when you won the title to begin with. Sudden, unexpected, and shocking, but it’s not okay when Lola does it, but it’s fine for Roxanne, am I right? Do I have to keep going?
Roxanne Perez: Lyra, stop talking like you know me because you don’t. You’ve been riding high as the number one women in NXT for the past six months, you don’t know what it’s like to lose that championship. But come Saturday, I’ll make sure you do. I’m going to knock you off your high horse, and watch you fall all the way down. And then we’ll see how good your moral compass really is. You’re going to find out that a champion is a made, not after you win a title, but after you lose it. I’m a whole new Roxanne Perez, Lyra. And at Vengeance Day, I probably couldn’t snatch your arm off the way I did a few weeks ago. I didn’t have it in me. But now, now I do. And the funny thing is that you think all of this broke me. You think losing the championship broke me, but no, it only made me dangerous.
Lyra Valkyria: Dangerous? Okay, I’m still hearing, your title. Your title? I don’t remember it being your title when Tiffany Stratton was wearing it. You sure as hell wasn’t calling it your title when Becky Lynch was champion. Oh, but I’m sure you got plenty of excuses lined up for those, let’s hear some. Actually, no, save it, because Stand & Deliver is going to be a fight. The biggest show of the year. And you want to know the difference between me and you? While I win, all you do is bitch. And after Stand & Deliver, Roxanne, you’re going to have a lot to bitch about.
Roxanne Perez: Lyra, you want to be seen as the perfect champion, but trust me, there is no perfect champion, not even the great Lyra Valkyria. I’ve got a full year of rage built up inside of me. And at Stand & Deliver, I’m going to let it all out.
Perez slaps Valkyria in the face. Valkyria responds with The Spinning Heel Kick. Valkyria delivers The Attitude Adjustment through the table to close the segment.

Ilja Dragunov & Tony D’Angelo Segment

Ilja Dragunov: Tony, I have to admit, the depths of how far you will take things, to get a mental edge, it’s impressive.
Tony D’Angelo: Ilja, you understand where you’re sitting right now? What this means for you? What this place is symbolic of?
Ilja Dragunov: Tony, last week, when your consigliere, Mr. Crusifino, dropped your invite, I was shocked by the location, surely. But I did my homework, and in your world, this is a very scary place.
Tony D’Angelo: You damn right it is. You see, this place, this doesn’t represent the end of you, Ilja, not yet. This place, this dinner, represents the end of your title reign.
Ilja Dragunov: Tony, Tony, Tony, many men have said this before. But no one so far has been able to do it.
Tony D’Angelo: Well, I’m not anybody. I’m The Don of NXT. And if you think what I’ve done so far is impressive, this Saturday, I’m going to make you look like.
Ilja Dragunov: Look like what? You said it yourself, I’m unbreakable. I’ll give you your respect. You’re a force in NXT. You’re The Don, but I am Ilja Dragunov, and nothing will stop me from leaving Stand & Deliver as the NXT Champion.
Tony D’Angelo: You see the faces of these wolves looking at you? You see their eyes, just waiting to pounce. I could’ve taken you out at any point, hell, I can do it right now. But, no, I’m going to do it while the entire world watches this Saturday. I’m going to beat the unbreakable. And The Don is going to leave Stand & Deliver, the NXT Champion.

Carmelo Hayes & Trick Williams Segment
Trick Williams: Here we are, face-to-face, I guess we both should be happy. We are main eventing the biggest show of the year, but it wasn’t supposed to be like this. Trick Melo Gang built a bond so strong that the whole world had to take notice. Trick Melo Gang built a bond so strong, you and me, the first two black men to main event a PLE, WrestleMania Weekend, ever. And as much as I want to be excited for that, happy about that, I’m having a hard time because I’m going to war with the man I used to call my brother.
Carmelo Hayes: Well, when you put it like that, Trick, I got to admit, you came along way. You came along way from that dark match at SmackDown when we had in Virginia.
Trick Williams: That was my third match, ever. Look, I was nervous, I won’t lie, I was nervous. I didn’t know if I belong in this business. But I looked at my side, and you, my brother, was there for me.
Carmelo Hayes: Yeah, I remember that. It was like that, Trick. But one thing you got to realize, at one point, it was me and you against the world. Now, at Stand & Deliver, it’s me against you.
Trick Williams: And the world is going to be watching.
Carmelo Hayes: They will be watching, just like they watched you ruin everything for everybody.
Trick Williams: No, dog, you ruin it.
Carmelo Hayes: Oh, I ruin it? Of course, I ruin it, when the hero gets to tell the story, Trick. Let me put this into perspective for everybody here. Imagine these championships were like our girlfriends, right. I lost the NXT Title, you lost the North American Title. And you said you were going to get your North American Title back, and we agreed on that, but you went behind my back and tried to take my girl, the NXT Championship, knowing damn well I was trying to get her back. Is that what brothers do, Trick? Make that makes sense, Trick. Because the look of shock on my face when you got entered into that number one contendership match, you know what that look really was? That was a look of me realizing that, at a drop of beat, you went from my brother to my enemy.
Trick Williams: Look, dog, if that’s how you want to tell your story, that’s cool, but we both know that’s now how it went down. I started to blow up. You knew it, I knew it. I came to you, I asked you, I saw you face-to-face, and said I wanted to take a chance on myself. And you said, yes, you said you was happy for me. As a matter of fact, you even said you did the same thing to get your career jumping. And you want to come out here and pull this on me?
Carmelo Hayes: I did say that, Trick. I said that and I meant that, okay. I was paving a way for you the whole time. But you, man, you wanted to believe in all the hype, you stared to listen to all these people, telling you that you were ready for a position that wasn’t open to you yet, Trick. Because that whole time, that position was mine, and it’s still mine, Trick. It doesn’t matter if I have a championship or if I don’t, at the end of the day, you are always going to take a backseat to me. Everybody here knows it, and I need you to know it, right at this moment.
Trick Williams: No, dog, my days of taking a backseat are long gone.
Carmelo Hayes: Oh, Trick, man, you used to be so humble, what happened to you? Look, I get it, no, no, no, I get it. You’ve been hot for six months. Congratulations. Wow, you did it. I’ve been hot for three years. And I’m going to break it to you like this, Trick, really listen to me here. They love when you’re shining, they love you on the raise, but when it’s the next guy’s turn, they’ll switch on you like Nintendo, quote that.
Trick Williams: Oh, it’s making sense now. This is what the whole thing has been about. This is what you’re mad about. Melo, I know you more than anybody else knows you, and you’re envious me. You’re envious because the people love Trick Willy, and it’s written all over your face.
Carmelo Hayes: Man, it could be so simple. Envious of what, Trick? You think I care what these people think? Hey, at Stand & Deliver, these people are not going to be in the ring with you, I am. These people won’t be there to help you, you’re going to be standing across the ring from me. And you’re going to learn the hard way, the truth is why I have been on top for so long, why I’ve been the man for so long, why they call me HIM, and why it is that when I shoot, I don’t miss.
Trick Williams: No, dog, you’re going to learn the hard way. You already had to learn that I’m going to be the one that knocks you off that hill. You’re going to learn that I’m the man here at NXT. And if you haven’t learned by now, you’re going to learn by Saturday in Philly at Stand & Deliver. Everybody is going to be chanting, whoop that Trick, and then I’m going to whoop that ass.
Melo and Trick gets into a massive pull apart brawl as the show goes off the air.
