Good evening Fight Fans, and happy Thanksgiving eve! It’s time for NXT from Full Sail Live in Orlando, Florida featuring two huge championship matches! Enjoy the show and be sure to stick with us afterwards for the post-show podcast and I’ll see you back here tomorrow night for a special edition of MLW Fusion live on YouTube on Thanksgiving night!
-We open the show with nearly everyone on the roster celebrating with the NXT Universe to a musical performance before they’re interrupted by the Undisputed Era, Adam saying that NXT only won because of them and that should be thanking them. Adam says that none of them are NXT and that the Undisputed Era are NXT and that they dominated at WarGames and Survivor Series and they’re just getting started. Tommaso Ciampa interrupts Adam and says that WarGames was the beginning of the end for the Undisputed Era and that the collapse will continue tonight when Keith Lee and Dominik Dijakovic take the tag titles. Ciampa then says that Strong’s days are numbered before saying that he wants his NXT Championship back and that there’s no one in Undisputed Era standing in his way before Finn Bálor comes out onto the stage and walks passed UE. Finn says that he’s standing in Ciampa’s way and they set up a match between Finn and Tommaso for later tonight.
