Dante Chen Promo 

Last week was the greatest night of my life. For over two years, I have waited for my opportunity. I’ve watched other superstars get their chance. But instead of being jealous or envious, I’ve always been happy for them and their success. I’ve been telling myself, Dante, stay ready. One day it will be your chance. A chance to represent my family, my culture, with me being the first Singapore WWE Superstar. And the response I received when I walked out, I will remember, forever. It’s those members in the NXT Universe, who watched me, week in and week out on Level Up, giving my heart and soul to them. But I’m all about discipline and my work ethic. And as much as I would like to bask in this victory, forever, I’m hungry for another and another. Dante Chen is ready for whoever is next.

Roxanne Perez, AVA, Jordynne Grace Segment 

Roxanne Perez: Can we all just acknowledge the fact that I’m the only women in the WWE that has actually appreciated this championship from the very beginning. I mean, seriously, from the moment that I won this NXT Women’s Championship in 2.0, to when I finally regained it in the biggest Stand and Deliver of all-time, I’ve seen this title jump from waist to waist. And it’s been continuously held by women that used it as some sort of vehicle or steppingstone to something bigger and better. I am the only one who has shown true commitment to this championship. It’s true. Don’t believe me, at 13 years old, I began training, creating myself into a prodigy for this NXT Women’s Championship. No one else can say that they’ve been working towards this title for nine years. I never cared about Raw or SmackDown, all I ever cared about was my NXT Women’s Championship.

Because to everyone else, this title represents the future greatness instead of the present greatness. And trust me when I say, all of you are in the presence of true greatness, right now. Which I say I find it really, really, really disrespectful that I have to come out here and find out who my Battleground opponent is, like this. I mean, come on, AVA, where the hell is the respect for the NXT Women’s Championship? As the face of the NXT Women’s Division, the best women’s division in all of wrestling, the only thing that me and AVA can actually agree on, I deserve to be treated better. But, okay, okay, AVA, you don’t want to give me the respect I deserve, that’s okay because I can play that game, too. So, who the hell is it going to be, AVA?

AVA: Roxanne, I don’t know why you created this whole, woah is me, Roxanne against the world thing when I never said you were a bad champ. I think you’re a great champ. But it’s not a matter of if you’re a bad champ, it’s a matter of if you’re still going to be champ after your next title defense at Battleground. Roxanne, you will be defending that Women’s Championship at Battleground against.

Roxanne Perez: Who? Who is it?

– Jordynne Grace makes her way down to the ring.

Jordynne Grace: Some of you may remember me from the Royal Rumble, earlier this year. But if you don’t, let me officially introduce myself. I’m the TNA Knockouts Champion, Jordynne Grace. Now, Roxanne, you are a great champion, a two-time champion. You built your name here in NXT, the same way I have in TNA. But I’m curious, who do you think has built the stronger foundation? I want to find out. So, at Battleground, I’m going to be challenging you for your NXT Women’s Championship. And I’m fully prepared to leave Las Vegas, a double champion.

– Riley Osborne tells Andre Chase that he’s not okay and Ridge Holland can’t be trusted. Duke Hudson understands where Riley is coming from.

– Kelly Kincaid had a backstage interview with Shawn Spears. Shawn says that it’s a real shame that there’s another lost soul on the NXT roster. He’s very troubled by the youth in NXT. They’re so talented, impressionable, but yet so misguided. There are few that are wondering down a path of uncertainty, and there’s one particular talent he thinks has great potential, but he doesn’t have it yet. He’s been down that path before, it could be daunting. He will help the youth reach their maximum potential. He’ll be the answer.

– The Heritage Cup is starting to grow on Tony D’Angelo. The Don says that they are going to beat The No Quarter Catch Crew at their own game.

Josh Briggs Promo 

Who is Josh Briggs? Signed to NXT in 2020, and had big dreams of becoming a superstar, and breaking out on my own. But my goals were a little too big, too quick, so I got myself a little brother, and then a little sister. It wasn’t about me; it was about us. And there’s no I in team, but there is an I in win, and that’s exactly what we did. We found success, and I thought I found who I was. And then it was time to break away and find success on my own. I got my hand raised a couple of times. And I was betting on myself, but when I think about it, what am I betting on? Am I man of mayhem in the ring or in my damn mind? I might not know who Josh Briggs is now, but best believe, I’m going to find out.

– Kelly Kincaid had a backstage interview with Wes Lee. He knows that Gallus is on another level right now, but they won’t reach the second level because he needs to get his North American Title back. Now, he would love to face Oba Femi, one-on-one, but he’s been in triple threat matches before, and the only big difference is Oba. Oba commends Wes brave nature. And whether or not Joe Coffey is focused, the number of opponents Oba will have to face will not matter, because the result will remain the same. This title will stay with Oba Femi.
