⭐️Kayhan: Maybe they could have emphasized this a bit more. A lot going on but the initial backstage attack seemed a little staged. They can also do some close ups on who the hell got attacked, maybe an interview with some pissed off wrestlers....

-Backstage, Andre Chase is mad that Connors & Dixon made the challenge on his behalf, but was pissed to hear Thorpe run down Chase U. For a moment we got a flash of the old Andre Chase.
-Match: Eddy Thorpe defeats Andre Chase. Chase was distracted by Connors & Dixon who showed up to support Chase in Chase U gear, but incidentally cost him the match.

⭐️Kayhan: I am loving this so much. At first I was critical of Andre Chase’s Chase U storyline, but ever since it ended, this has been so amazing. I would go back and retroactively take back anything bad I said about Chase U if I knew this was the type of TV we’d be getting from it…
⭐️Robert:

➡️COMMENTS⬅️
⭐️Kayhan: Getting Jordynne Grace into the picture. Nice… Fatal Influence trying to be heels. They just look hilarious every time they get their asses kicked and lay there all angry and beaten up… I’ll give this a positive. The ending to the match was predictable and ate up a chunk of show at the end. So only 1/2 from me.
⭐️Robert:

⭐️Kayhan: Seeing Izzi Dame come out with Shawn Spears. smh 😆. Wasn’t he “stalking” her a few weeks ago? I guess it was all a ruse. Ok. The stable sure has a better look with Izzi in it.

Participants:
Peripheral Participants:
Tyson & Tyreke

-Ava and Ricky Starks are in ring to sign the contract with NXT when Ethan Page enters to chop it up with Starks. Page & Starks' discussion is cut short by a furious Je'Von Evans who storms the ring and fights off with Ethan Page. Starks' attempt to sign is once again interrupted by Wes Lee, who feels disrespected from what happened backstage. This ends in a physical confrontation where Lee is clotheslined over the top rope and held back by security as Starks signs the contract. But a camera close up of the contract reveals Starks is now "Ricky Saints."
-Backstage, Ava & Saints are chit chatting when Ethan Page enters to tell Ava he thought he was done with Je'Von. Wes Lee comes over to confront Saints & Je'Von also to confront Page. Ava keeps them apart and makes a tag match for next week.

⭐️Kayhan: It's more like, if Trick is going up, he's taking Thorpe with him. Nice. I thought Trick was gonna get called up but they're really using Trick to elevate Thorpe. I think this is good.
