Toni Storm: After I lost the NXT UK Women’s Championship, I had to go away for a while because I just didn’t know myself anymore. Kay Lee Ray, she really got in my head and it sent me to a really dark place. And that kind of made me go a little bit crazy. But because of that, I owe someone an apology. Someone I really do consider a real friend. Someone i’ve known for a really long time. So right now, I would like to talk to Piper Niven. I owe you an apology. I was stupid enough to let Kay Lee Ray drive a wedge between us and after everything you’ve done for me, the way I’ve acted just hasn’t been cool and i’m so sorry.
But before we move past this, before we get past this, I need a favor. My personal feelings and issues with Kay Lee Ray, they’re not over. So at TakeOver Blackpool, i’m going to need you step aside from this championship match. But you know what? As soon as I become NXT UK Women’s Champion again, you are the first contender. You have my word. I promise you that, but right now, I’m going to need you to back away.
Piper Niven: Toni, I love you. You know that I love you. We’ve been through so much together. So you know exactly how hard i’ve hard to work and for how long and everything i’ve had to give up just to even be here. I can’t let an opportunity like this slip through my fingers. You’ve had your chance here. I need to take mine. I’m sorry, but the answer is no.
Niven HeadButts Storm. Niven and Storm proceed to brawl to close the segment. Kay Lee Ray is watching the carnage from the stage.
