NXT Women & # 39; s Championship Contenders Ladder Match Qualifier: Mia Yim vs. Dakota Kai (w / Raquel Gonzalez)

Yim started a comeback before Kai hit a Kai-ro-practor for an impending fall. Yim got an electric bomb and stacked Kai for the cover, but Gonzalez grabbed Yim's foot to break the pin. The referee yelled at Gonzalez at the edge of the ring and missed a Kai pin that would have won him the match, but Yim hit a Codebreaker.

Austin Theory interrupted an interview with Tyler Breeze to set up a match between them

NXT female champion Rhea Ripley went out for a promo and said Charlotte Flair would need a better psycher game plan before WrestleMania. Flair interrupts him and says that Ripley has guts, but Flair is too much, too fast and too early for Ripley. Flair said she would take Ripley into the deep waters and drown her. This led to a fight where Flair wrapped Ripley's leg around the pole of the ring and locked Figure Four on the pole.

A video package from UK champion NXT Walter ended with Finn Balor holding his passport.

The undisputed era came out for the main event, but Velveteen Dream broke off from the platform. Dream said that he had always had his eyes on the NXT champion Adam Cole and that he never cared about Roderick Strong and his family. Dream said Strong is just dumber than it looks. Cole said Dream had not won a title hit and that Cole would have a celebration next week to celebrate becoming the longest-standing NXT champion of all time. Undisputed Era moved to attack, but Dream snapped her fingers to bring out the NXT team champions The BroserWeights.

NXT Tag Team Championships: The BroserWeights (c) vs. The Undisputed Era (Kyle O & # 39; Reilly & Bobby Fish) (with Adam Cole & Roderick Strong)

Dunne and O & # 39; Reilly started with a dead end to bring Riddle and Fish. The BroserWeights erased the ring with gutwrench suplexes before the commercials. Riddle almost fell on O & # 39; Reilly after the break, but a distraction from Fish caused Riddle to fall from the deck and the ground. Riddle was beaten by Fish and O & # 39; Reilly for a long part of the match. Riddle dodged under the keystrokes of Fish to land a Pelé kick and get the hot tag at Dunne. Dunne cleaned the house and got a triangular choke. Riddle jumped from Dunne to take a dip in the uncontested era outside. Riddle threw Adam Cole into the ring and Dunne clapped hands and sold a superkick, causing the referee to be ejected before another break.

Dunne isolated herself during the commercials, but got the hot tag for Riddle after the break. Riddle boots and kicks started the comeback. Dunne and a strike exchange with O & # 39; Reilly saw the challenger drop a clothesline. Fish and Riddle scored and O & # 39; Reilly slipped a label for a flying knee drop that almost won the game. Chasing the dragon over an isolated puzzle has done almost the same thing. Riddle dropped the EU and it brought Grizzled Young Veterans out. Zack Gibson cut Riddle's throat and almost cost the champions dearly, but Dunne eliminated them. O & # 39; Reilly was left for the Bro to Sleep and enzugiri combo.
