April Week 2
The show starts with GM William Regal in the ring. He talks about how there will be an influx of talent coming to NXT over the next few weeks and that fans should be excited because there will be two debuts tonight. Just then Sami Zayn's music hits and he comes to the ring very animated.
Sami: Mr. Regal sir! I know you saw what happened to me last week to end the show. You know why I'm out here, you know what I want! Give me Kevin Owens tonight!! Better yet, since he took me out, I want to take his prized possession....the NXT Championship!
Regal: Sami, lad I understand you are frustrated but I cannot have you coming out here demanding matches. It's not fair to the other competitors (Kevin Owens' music hits and he comes to the ring.)
Kevin: Mr. Regal if Sami wants a match against me tonight, I say let him do it. However, if you think I'm going to put my title on the line tonight....that will not happen.
Both guys get in each others face until Regal makes an announcement.
Regal: Alright boys fine, tonight the main event will be Sami Zayn vs. Kevin Owens in a non-title match. Sami, I just hope you know what you are doing.
The Hit Squad logo shows on the tron but now the message is different. It now says “the wreckage begins now” and out they come to the ring. Both wearing red and white attire. Mr. Black in pants and Kid Dynamite in shorts. Both also have sunglasses on their way down to the ring.
Match 1: The Hit Squad vs. Dash & Dawson
Kid Dynamite and Dash Wilder started the match and Dynamite got in the first strike and landed an impressive suplex. He then tagged in the taller Mr. Black and he went to work using his surprising quickness to come at Dash with a Thez Press. Wilder is forced to make a tag to Dawson but Dawson is greeted with a Spear by Mr. Black! The match was over pretty quickly once Mr. Black whipped Dawson in the corner, tagged in Dynamite and they hit a variation of the G9 they call Black Dynamite.
Winners by pinfall: The Hit Squad
Match 2: Simon Gotch vs. Enzo Amore
The match starts off with a lockup in which Gotch comes out on top. Simon is in control all throughout pretty much. Even hitting a Rolling Fireman's Carry on Enzo but only getting a two count. But the end came pretty quickly after that once Gotch put Enzo to the mat with a Gentleman's Clutch and earned the win. Giving him and his team some momentum.
Winner by pinfall: Simon Gotch
Match 3: Sasha Banks vs. Becky Lynch
Before the match starts Sasha asks Becky why she continues to do this to herself. She knows she can't beat the boss of NXT so why even try? Becky says she's going to shut Sasha's mouth and it's going to start tonight, and end with her eventually taking the NXT Women's Title from her.
The two lock up a few times and the fans can tell just how evenly matched these ladies are. Becky finds her groove early peppering Banks with chops, punches and kicks. Sasha fights back working Lynch's face and back. Banks then surprises the crowd by throwing Becky outside the ring and diving over the top rope and connecting with a cross body! Banks then throws Becky back inside the ring, plants Lynch with the Bank Statement and gets the win by submission! After the match Sasha continues to attack Becky by having
the Bank Statement still locked in till the ref pulls her off.
Winner by submission: Sasha Banks
The scene cuts to Devin Taylor interviewing The Hit Squad
Devin: Guys first off welcome to NXT. You two won your first match in impressive fashion. How does it feel to be here?
Mr. Black: It feels good for us to finally be here in NXT. We worked so hard to get here, and now we only have one goal now that we are here...
Kid Dynamite: One goal indeed my brother. And that goal is the NXT Tag Team Championship! So to all the teams here we only have one message for you.... (In unison) Prepare to get wrecked!! Squad out!
Baron Corbin is standing in the ring as we return from break.
Baron: Look I've rolled through every single person thrown at me so far and honestly I'm bored. So is there ANYONE who can give me a challenge?
Gore! Gore! Gore! Oh my God it's Rhyno!! Rhyno is back in the WWE!!!
Match 4: Baron Corbin vs. Rhyno
The two big men lock up and come out even in the exchange. Chants of ECW fill the arena as the fans are still in shock at this return. The match is really back and forth and it looks like Corbin has finally met his match. After some explosive offense by both men Rhyno plants Baron with a Death Valley Driver but he kicks out at two. Rhyno then goes outside and Baron follows, the two battle on the outside. Slamming each other into the table and barricade. Corbin gets back in the ring and plants Rhyno with the End of Days but no Rhyno is able to kick out at two!!!! Corbin is frustrated now and hits another End of Days but once again Rhyno kicks out at two! Rhyno battles back and calls for the Gore, it connects and that's the match!! An impressive debut for “The Man Beast”!
Winner by pinfall: Rhyno
Main Event: Sami Zayn vs. Kevin Owens
As Sami was making his way to the ring Owens attacked him from behind hitting Sami with the NXT title in the head. KO wasted no time after the vicious assault beating down Zayn on the outside. Throwing him into the barricade and slamming him into it repeatadly. Owens hits a Package Powerbomb on the outside and then throws Sami in the ring and hits not one but two Pop Up Powerbombs on Zayn to pick up the pinfall victory. After the match Kevin was not done. He went to the outside, grabbed a chair and pelted Sami with chair shots to loud boos from the NXT crowd. Kevin could be heard saying “You asked for this Sami”. The show goes off with Kevin gloating over Zayn's downed body, arms stretched out with the title in his left hand.
Winner by pinfall Kevin Owens
