Toxic Attraction come to the ring. Jacy Jayne says that, at Vengeance Day, they’ll put the Women’s Tag Team Titles on the line against Persia Pirotta and Indi Hartwell. Mandy Rose goes to speak but out comes Kay Lee Ray and she says it’s time she got her title shot. Mandy says no and Ray says she suspected as much, so how about she bashes their brains in with her bat?

Mandy asks Jacy and Gigi to leave and Ray to drop the bat, which she does. Ray gets in the ring and says she is the longest reigning women’s champion of the modern era and she deserves a shot. Mandy says she doesn’t care about that, she wants to talk about herself. She says she’s been on magazine covers, billboards, bikini world champion, and she is the epitome of what every woman wants to be.

Ray says none of that compares to her dominating a continent while Rose was slipping on the stage at WrestleMania and sucking the face off Otis. Rose says look at her now, she’s the hottest thing in the company. So allow how to be transparent with Ray… all of the talent in the world could never replace her. Ray says she will have her title match by the end of the night. Rose says doubtful, but then Ray slaps her across the face. Ray grabs her baseball bat and Toxic Attraction high-tail it.

Cora Jade is interviewed backstage and she says wants to prove she is tough enough tonight. She goes on about facing Gonzalez tonight and says she might get her ass kicked, but she will give Gonzalez all she has and prove to her she has what it takes to compete with the best here in NXT, and that they can with The Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic after she proves herself. Gonzalez walks up and says Jade can still back out of the match, but Jade is ready to lock up.

*Commercial Break*

We see Toxic Attraction leaving the building and they’re stopped for an interview. Gigi and Jacy get into an SUV while Mandy tells the interviewer that Ray can’t bully her way into a title fight.

Sarray is back. She walked backstage dressed as a schoolgirl, then walked through the curtain and suddenly she was in wrestling gear thanks to a shining necklace. I guess if we can have zombies we can have magical schoolgirls.

North American Champion, Carmelo Hayes, and Trick Williams make their way to the ring. Trick says Tony D’Angelo can’t beat Cameron Grimes and he thinks he can handle the A Champion? Same for Grimes who couldn’t hack it. Hayes says he won’t verbally run Grimes down because he is a true threat to him, even if the fans don’t like him. And that’s why he’s putting more work in in the gym, in the ring, and on OllieJayy.

Hayes says he will always be looking down on Grimes. Cameron Grimes makes his way out and Trick calls him a bum. He says he’s going to take his boot off and kick his slimy ass with it. Cameron says he isn’t slimy, he’s grimy. Grimes says Melo’s hair looks like Spongebob’s house, which must make Trick Squidward. And he saw both men on Instagram looking at OllieJayy’s bikini bottoms.

Trick practically raps at Grimes and he says he didn’t catch a word of that, but he wonders which one of them is the Chmpion. Hayes says that Grimes will find out in two weeks because he’s going to shoot for the moon and take the stars as casualties. Hayes and Trick leave but Grimes says it’s funny he mentioned stars because in two weeks it will be a one star match, and that star is going to the moon.

Enofe asks what Blade would do if she were there right now and before he can answer, Mandy bursts through the door and falls on his lap.
