Ethan Page & Trick Williams Contract Signing 

AVA: Two of the biggest nights in NXT history are quickly approaching, when NXT goes on the road to Chicago and St. Louis, for our debut on the CW Network. Now, in St. Louis, on October 8th, a very special someone will be making her NXT return, Sexy Red. Also, in St. Louis, WWE Superstar Randy Orton will compete in an NXT ring for the first time ever. But, with all that said, now let’s talk about Chicago. On October 1st, when NXT heads to Chicago, CM Punk, who is here tonight, will also be there. Wes Lee and Zach Wentz will battle it out in a Street Fight. Now, there will also be a very special edition of Miz TV. Roxanne Perez will take on Giulia for the NXT Women’s Championship. And finally, Ethan Page will defend his NXT Title against Trick Williams. And that match is why I’m standing out here, right now. So, gentlemen, if we could come get this contract signed, starting with the challenger, Trick Williams.

Trick Williams: Hey, yo, check it, let’s get straight to business. Don’t let the shiny vest fool you, I’m in pain, I’m hurting. I went through war last week, but that don’t change one very important thing. And I think everybody out here is going to agree, Pete Dunne is still a Butch. No, for real, me and Pete, we went to work last week. Ethan Page, he came out here trying to hold a brother down, but somehow, someway, still, I am the Last Man Standing. And in two weeks, October 1st, on the CW, in Chicago, where history is always being made, we’ll make some more history. Once I beat Ethan Page for that title, the people are going to be chanting something, NXT, tell them what we’re going to do?

Ethan Page: Woah, woah, woah, woah. Why did you guys stop? Come on, keep going. Whoop That Trick. Hey, why aren’t you doing the Trick Willy Dance? No, no, let’s have fun. I’ll be Booker T, and you guys keep doing the chant.

Trick Williams: We don’t like it.

Ethan Page: You don’t like it? Okay, when I’m done talking to Trick, I’m going to have to send you guys to the eye doctor, because I’m dressed like a million bucks. Now, Trick, listen, I will compliment you, where compliments are due. You have every right to be a confident man. You are Trick Williams, but I’m not Pete Dunne, Trick, I’m “All Ego” Ethan Page, just so happens to be Trick Williams kryptonite. Yeah, right, how dare you say that? I have the receipts to back that up. The biggest receipt I have is this, right here, the NXT Championship.

Trick Williams: You know what, Page, since you stole that title from me, you’ve been hiding from me. And come October 1st, all that running is going to stop when it’s me and you, face to face.

Ethan Page: Did you say that I stole this championship? You think I stole this? This, right here, I stole this? Trick, I didn’t steal anything, I earned this, I won this. You want to know what I remember the most from the night that I won this? It was everybody’s facial expressions when the referee counted the 1-2-3, it was shock and surprise on everyone’s face, including yours. Trick, I didn’t steal nothing, and on October 1st, you’re going to have a little different expression on your face. You’re going to the expression of disappointment, because you think you got Ethan Page figured out, you sure as hell don’t. October 1st, I will beat you, and put an end to this, finally. But you know what won’t end? The Era of Ego. And we will still be saying, N-X-Me.

Trick Williams: What the hell dog, are you crazy? Ain’t nobody with that N-X-Me. What is that? We ain’t feeling that. The only thing we do know is, when I see you in Chicago, for that title, the N-X-Me Era will be over, and the people is going to be chanting, NXT.

Zachary Wentz Promo 

Sorry for interrupting, but I have something I need to show everyone. Last week, Trey and I were supposed to challenge for the NXT Tag Team Titles. And this is why we didn’t. Evan in the truck, please roll the footage I present to you. Now, I don’t know how long Trey is going to be out for, but what I know is this. Wes, you are an absolute piece of garbage. You went to Trey’s hometown. How many rides did we take in that car? Can you not handle the fact that Trey and I moved on without you or maybe Mr. Big Solo star is still bitter that I got my hand raised at No Mercy? You deserve everything that’s going to happen to you in Chicago. You thought losing to me at No Mercy was embarrassing, well, on October 1st, the pain that I’m going to put you in our street fight is going to be ten times worse. This ends in Chicago.

CM Punk, Roxanne Perez, Giulia Segment 

CM Punk: I may be in a little different mood than I was last night. Did you guys see Monday Night Raw? Alright, I want to get the business out of the way on Monday Night Raw, because I knew I was coming down here, and I didn’t want to be in a bad mood, I wanted to have some fun. Do you guys want to have some fun? I watch NXT on the USA Network, and I see all of you beautiful people that I’ve never been in the ring, in this building, surrounded by the NXT fanatics, so this is pretty cool. Now, a few of you I recognize, you’re here almost every week, and while I was rehabbing my triceps, I tried to sneak and watch the shows and hide behind there. And some of you would call me out, that’s okay. You did. I saw you, see me, that’s not really a chant that’s going to work, but I appreciate all of you, but sometimes it’s hard to hide and watch the show.

I do enjoy watching the show. I appreciate the blood, sweat, and tears that every man and women that comes out here, because they’re on National Television, in an early stage, and I enjoy watching the development of the men and the women to become superstars of the future. Now, selfishly, there’s a little bit of scouting going on, you know, because I know, one day, they’re rubbing elbows with CM Punk, the next day, they’re throwing elbows at CM Punk. So, I know sometime in the future I’m going to butt heads with superstars like Lexis King, come on, did you so that beard, it’s fantastic. Carmelo Hayes is tearing it up on SmackDown, right now. Ethan Page.

And hey, not to start any rumors, but I’m sure sooner or later, I’m going to be standing across the ring from Bron Breakker. Let’s keep it light, let’s keep it moving. You know, I was talking to Je’Von Evans before I came out here. I have t-shirts that are older than Je’Von Evans. I love you, too. And I love NXT. Shawn Michaels called me up, because he knew I loved NXT. And he said, hey, listen, kid, he told me that the NXT debut on the CW Network was going to be on October 1st, and he told me that it was going to be in my hometown of Chicago, Illinois. So, I went ahead and asked, okay, I begged Shawn to be a part of it, because I love Chicago, and I love NXT. And not only did he agree to let me to be a part of it, that Reckless 1995 Shawn came out, and he said, kid, you can do whatever you want on the show. Very dangerous, Shawn, very dangerous. So, I came up with an idea that, in my opinion, is pretty special, and you’ve got to be kidding me.

Roxanne Perez: Look, I’m sorry to interrupt you, Punk. I promise, I’ll let you get back to your big announcement, that’s probably about Giulia, because everybody just can’t seem to get enough of Giulia. But all of that aside, 13-year-old me would be freaking out right now, sharing the ring with The Best In The World, my favorite wrestler of all-time, CM Punk. You know, you’re one of the main reasons why I’m in the WWE. I always looked up to you. I followed in your footsteps. I mean, the voice of the voiceless, you were my voice. But I always did prefer your wife. Seriously, like, you do not understand how happy I was when you finally returned at Survivor Series, like, 10 years, 10 years of me impatiently waiting for you to come back, and now you’re here.

And I’ll let you get back to it, but before you do, I just wanted to tell you that, I finally realized that I should’ve been a Drew McIntyre fan. And I know why you’re here, Punk. I know exactly why you want to show up in Chicago, that’s because you want one last moment of glory before Drew McIntyre ends your career at Hell In A Cell. But you know what, just stay home, Punk, just stay home with Larry, because I don’t want you there. I don’t need you there. Yeah, maybe everyone else wants CM Punk there, but I don’t. Because, when I beat Giulia, Chicago is not going to be your town anymore, it’s going to be mine. What you need to realize is that this isn’t about you, this isn’t about Giulia, it’s about one person and one person only, and that’s me. Shut up.

CM Punk: Can I retort?

Roxanne Perez: No, I wasn’t done yet. Look, I don’t care how big Giulia is in Japan, I’m bigger all around the globe, I am untouchable. Tell me when I’m telling lies, because a wiseman once said, I rather be hated for who I am than loved for who I’m not.

CM Punk: Well, you’re certainly on your way to being hated, aren’t you? I think you assume that I’m upset that you came out here, and stepped all over my big announcement, but I kind of love it. The balls on Roxanne. I love it, kid, maximize your minutes. If anybody can appreciate an overconfident champion, it’s me. And that chip on your shoulder, man, I used to have one just like it. In fact, it was the size of you. Yeah. That chip is what made me the best in the world. This chip is what makes you the best, maybe not just in NXT, maybe in WWE. Because, ladies and gentlemen, I was in Portland last night, I watched Bianca BelAir and Iyo Sky absolutely go toe-to-toe and tear the house down. And the entire time, I was thinking, wow, you know who would fit in, right here, with these two bad ass ladies? Roxanne. You know who might be better than these two women, Roxanne. But none of that is going to matter when you get your ass handed to you in Chicago by Giulia. I don’t know Giulia. I didn’t come out here to talk about Giulia. I do know you, but I also didn’t come out here to talk about you. We can talk about Giulia if you want. It seems to annoy a certain someone.

Giulia: Roxanne, the countdown is on. You have two weeks left.

Punk prevents Roxanne from hitting Giulia with the NXT Women’s Championship. Roxanne had a huge standoff with Giulia to close this segment.

– Sarah Schreiber had a backstage interview with Kelani Jordan. She brings up the fact that, earlier in the night, Fallon Henley claimed that Kelani was ducking Fatal Influence. When it comes to Fatal Influence, no one is off limits, they’ll verbally and physically attack anyone they want. Kelani is well aware that she has a target on her back, but she’s going to defend this title against women who excel in the ring, not women who excel at their own insults. Kelani gives major props to Jordynne Grace. In fact, Kelani wants to issue her very own open challenge one day. When that happens, she better see one of the Fatal Influence girls step up to the plate and put their money where their mouth is. Wren Sinclair joins the conversation. Wren says that she wants to create an opportunity for herself. Wren proceeds to slap Kelani in the face. Kelani starts running after Wren.

– Back from the commercial break, The Family confronts The DON. He says that he’s fine. He’s just afraid. He’s supposed to be the Don of the NXT, afraid of no-one, but it’s different with Oba Femi. He’s not human, he’s a machine, and The DON can’t beat him.

Ethan Page, Trick Williams, Tyrese Halliburton, CM Punk Segment  

Tyrese Halliburton: Alright, yo. AVA tried to do this earlier, and it didn’t work, so I’m here to make sure that Ethan Page and Trick Williams signs this contract. But I didn’t come alone. He brought some reinforcements of his own. And I get it, I’d boo too if I had to be an Orlando Magic fan, I get it. But we’re not out here to talk about that. Let’s bring out my brother, the challenger, Trick Williams.

Trick Williams: Yo, yo. Hey, first things first, man, this must be a big deal if we brought out 2x NBA All-Star, and an Olympic Gold Medalist like Tyrese. Don’t hate, he’s doing his thing. And I’m going to be real with you, dog, just like you and Team USA went out there in Paris, and you came back with that gold, Trick Willy is going to Chicago, and I’m bringing that gold home, too. You did your thing, dog, best believe that. But I need to get serious right now. Ethan Page, bring your ass out here, and sign this contract, before I sign your forehead with the bottom of this Gucci Loffer. Let’s talk about it.

Tyrese Halliburton: With that being said, let’s bring out our NXT Champion, “All Ego” Ethan Page.

Ethan Page: This is absolutely ridiculous. Trick, Trick, I gave you an out earlier, but you decided to come out here and start anyways. But that’s absolutely fine with me. If you want to force me to sign this contract, I’ll do it. But let me put this in a way that you, and your pal here will understand. When it comes to this championship, Ethan Page is the Boston Celtics. And on October 1st, when I beat you in Chicago, you will be like the Indiana Pacers, and the rest of the NBA, because you’re going to have to watch me be victorious. Carrying this championship, this entire company and brand. And the era of EGO will continue to make history. Now, hold that open, so that I can sign it.

Tyrese Halliburton: Well, there you have it. Two weeks from now, we’re going to have my brother, Trick Williams challenging Ethan Page for the NXT Championship. And Trick, you know what time it is. It’s time to Whoop That Trick. That’s all we got. Wait, I forgot one more thing, hit the music.

CM Punk: Thank you, Tyrese Halliburton. Thank you so much, you beautiful people, you have such lovely voices. But earlier before, calm down, it’s going to be okay. Earlier before I was so rudely interrupted by who I can only assume is soon to be the former NXT Women’s Champion, this was the match that I wanted to talk about. This was my announcement, because this match isn’t just about the NXT Title, a match this big determines the direction in which the entire brand goes. Two very special athletes. Two very different men, with completely different visions. A match that big, doesn’t deserve, it needs something special. The people have spoken, this match needs a special guest referee. Ladies and gentlemen, I happen to be that man. On October 1st, live on the CW for the very first time, NXT, the title will be determined in the match, and the referee making the 1-2-3 is CM Punk. And the only rule is, you will listen to the official. And boys, I’m the official. And honestly, since I’m the official, y’all can start fighting right now.

Trick and Ethan gets into a massive pull apart brawl as the show goes off the air.
