Meanwhile, backstage…
- We met the new NXT talent, The French Luchador, Elio LeFleur.
- Lola Vice and Kelani Jordan’s war is far from over.
- Joe Hendry asked Ava for a no-DQ match against Dion Lennox next week. Ava had a condition: DarkState will turn the bout into a Handicap one, so Hendry needs friends with him. OTM agreed to support Hendry.
- Fatal Influence reminded Sol Ruca that she is titleless.
- Ethan Page met Myles Borne and EVOLVE talent Tate Wilder. Page asked Borne where he was when he needed him.
"Can you hear me now, Myles?!"
