May Week 2
Orlando,FL
The show starts with The Undisputed Era running into Roderick Strong backstage. Cole asks him if he's thought about his offer yet. Strong says that he's not happy with how they are going about their business. Adam gets up in Roderick's face and says he's going to give him till the first Takeover event to think about things. “If you're not with us, you're against us”. The Era head to the ring for the first match.
Match 1: Street Profits vs. The Undisputed Era (Fish & O'Reilly)
The Street Profits give Fish and O'Reilly a run for their money but in the end The Undisputed Era pick up a win after hitting Chasing the Dragon.
Winners by pinfall: The Undisputed Era
After the match the trio attack Dawkins and Ford continuing to assault them while down then send them over the top rope to the floor. You can bet this won't be the last time we see these two teams square off!
Backstage Aliyah runs into Lacey Evans. She runs Lacey down telling her that she's not going to become new NXT Women's Champion at Takeover in two months. Lacey says that she's up to prove her skills tonight in a match. Aliyah says bring it.
Match 2: Sawyer Fulton vs. No Way Jose
Jose wins in a very competitive match after hitting Fulton with the Fastball Punch.
Winner by pinfall: No Way Jose
After the match Jose takes a moment to dance before getting serious and sending a message to Hideo Itami that he cannot wait till Takeover to finally get a piece of him and that he's going to dance circles around him all the way to victory.
We cut backstage to see NXT Champion Bobby Roode in an interview. He says last week he wasn't feeling well so that's why he backed out of his match. Tonight he feels well enough to watch Kassius Ohno in the main event so he'll be at ringside.
Match 3: Aliyah vs. Lacey Evans
Aliyah gets the surprising win after rolling up Lacey and grabbing the pants preventing Evans from kicking out. She scampers away before Lacey can properly react.
Winner by pinfall: Aliyah
Match 4: Sanity (Young & Wolfe) vs. The Authors of Pain
Sanity continues to roll taking their third win a row as Young tags in after Wolfe plants Rezar with his Sit-Out Powerbomb then takes out Akam on the apron with a clothesline that sends Alexander over the top as well.
Winners by pinfall: Sanity
Akam and Rezar begin yelling at each other but Paul Ellering steps in and calms the two down. He appears to get them back on the same page as they all head to the back together after a few moments.
Main Event: Kassius Ohno vs. Adam Cole
Adam Cole gets the win after Bobby Roode gets up on the apron and distracts Kassius. He turns around into Cole's Shining Wizard!
Winner by pinfall: Adam Cole
As Cole celebrates he makes it a point to show his interest in Bobby Roode and the NXT Championship by pointing at Roode as he yells out “Adam Cole BAY BAY!” This is how the show goes off the air.
