(1) BLAKE MONROE vs. JAIDA PARKER – Street Fight

Parker entered the ring to new, but similar music.  They started slapping the taste out of each other’s mouths.  Dame grabbed one of the many kendo sticks that were hung off the ropes but missed.  They took the action to the floor.  Parker went for a table, but Monroe stopped her.  Parker hurt her with a suplex to the floor, then continued trying to set up the table.  Monroe yanked a fan’s umbrella out of her hand, then used it to beat Parker with.

Monroe went to set up a table of her own, but shoved it back under the ring when the fans began chanting for it.  Back in the ring, Monroe grabbed a chair but Parker glommed her from behind before she could use it.  Monroe set up some homemade contraption with two kendo sticks and a chair, but Parker dumped her on it instead.

Back out on the floor, Parker was a little quicker in setting up a table, but Monroe still thwarted her.  Monroe moved out of the way of a Hipnotic, sending Parker crashing into the steps.  In the ring, Monroe hit a missile dropkick for a two-count.  She wore her out with mean-spirited kendo stick shots, but still only got two.  Monroe retrieved some plunder from the floor and decided on a trash can.  Parker caught her coming in, but Monroe unloaded on her.

Monroe tied her to the tree of woe and sandwiched her between two chairs, then hit a Hipnotic of her own for another near fall.  Monroe wrapped her fist in pearls and decked Parker for two.  She tried rearranging Parker’s dental work with a kendo stick, but Parker got out and smacked the daylights out of Monroe with a stick.  Parker hit a blockbuster, but Monroe rolled out of the ring.  Parker hit a Hipnotic on Monroe while she was holding a trash can.  She finally got the table set up, but Monroe clocked her with a trash can lid.  She found a brick somewhere, but Parker nailed her with a chair.

She laid Monroe on a table and drove her through it with a teardrop.  Parker grabbed her backside in pain but rolled Monroe in the ring.  She nailed a Hipnotic but only got two.  Monroe sent Parker through a couple of kendo sticks that were wedged in the ropes and hit a knee, but still only got a two-count.  Monroe emptied a five-pound bag of diamonds on the mat.  As Parker climbed the turnbuckle, Monroe threw a handful of the diamonds into her face, then did a handstand on the ropes, twisted her legs around Parker’s neck, and flipped her onto the diamond-covered mat.  She nailed a Glamour Shot DDT onto the diamonds for the final count.

WINNER: Blake Monroe at 13:30

(Miller’s Take: This was one hell of a street fight that seemed a lot longer than it actually was, just because they packed so much action into it.  Neither woman held back and everything looked painful.  While it makes sense for Monroe to win by showing more of her dark side, I don’t know why they would job out arguably the most popular female on their roster.)

-In the locker room, Ricky Saints confronted Ethan Page for not being out there for him when Joe Hendry was thumping on him this past Tuesday.  Saints, as usual, made everything about himself.  Page was obviously annoyed but agreed to be there for him.  He muttered under his breath as Saints left.  Saints may be the only character unlikable enough to turn Ethan Page face.

-In the parking lot, cars were parked in a circle while onlookers sat on hoods.  It looked like a scene from Every Which Way But Loose, without the orangutan.  D’Angelo pulled up in his car, and DarkState grabbed him before he could get out.  They pulled the hoodie off his head and realized it wasn’t actually D’Angelo when the real Tony D started whacking them in the backs with a crowbar.  Dion Lennox ducked a crowbar shot but ate a car hood.  D’Angelo threw a beer keg at Lennox, but he moved and it crashed through the windshield.  Lennox dribbled Tony D off the car a few times, but Tony threw him into the garage area and rolled the door down.  He shoved Lennox through a door, then backed him up against another and punched a hole through it after Tony ducked.

-Lennox hit him with a trash can and threw him into a table but got smacked in the gut with a baking pan when he moved in with a chair.  D’Angelo pitched him into another part of the garage, where Osiris Griffin and Saquon Shugars found their way back into.  They attacked Tony, but he fought back.  An official was urging them to take it to the ring, but they ignored him and continued using everything that wasn’t nailed down against each other.  A referee followed them as they left the building.  Shugars and Griffin held Tony against a garage door while Lennox went to hit him with a crowbar.  OTM stopped him and brawled with Shugars and Griffin while Tony continued battering Lennox.  A referee ran to the ring just as Tony and Lennox crashed through the wall and into the arena.  That popped the crowd huge.

(2) DION LENNOX vs. TONY D’ANGELO

I didn’t think this match was going to actually start, but here we are.  When both men slid in the ring and rose to their feet, the referee called for the bell, which seemed to energize both men enough to start slugging it out again.  They gouged and hammered on each other relentlessly.  Lennox hit a spinebuster for a two-count.  The crowd chanted “let’s go Tony”, which must have worked because he started German suplexing him like he was Brock Lesnar and Lennox was John Cena.  He slung him into a torture rack neckbreaker, then tossed him out of the ring.  In a spot that’s become all too common, he missed a big move on the floor and ate the ring steps.  He laid Tony’s leg against the steps and tried to snap it with the other part of the steps, but Tony D. moved.

Lennox threw Tony into the front row of what appeared to be actual fans, judging by their realistically shocked expressions.  In an incredible move, Lennox suplexed Tony from the elevated front row through the announce desk, which splintered.  Back in the ring, he hit a sit-out powerbomb for a very near fall.  Lennox beat some life into him as he fired up, looking remarkably like Hillbilly Jim as he lost his ponytail and his hair frizzed out.  He thumped on Lennox, hit a spear, and followed that up with a Dead to Rights chokeslam for the win.

WINNER: Tony D’Angelo at 7:30

(Miller’s Take: You can add about five minutes to that match time to include the rumble in the parking lot and garage.  Like the women before them, they laid into each other with all they had.  The interference by DarkState (strangely, sans Cutler James) was inevitable, but I honestly didn’t expect OTM to make the save, so that was exciting.  Now I suppose we can find out the second reason D’Angelo returned to NXT.)

-Interim GM Robert Stone stood mid-ring as he introduced Fatal Influence.  They sashayed to the ring to what I believe is one of the best entrance songs in WWE today.  Jacy Jayne took the mic, of course.  She talked about walking into Stand & Deliver as the champion and mocked the crowd for not taking her seriously at the beginning of her first title reign.  She said last year she was happy just to have a preliminary match on the show, but this year is different.  She said next year she’ll main event WrestleMania.  She bragged about beating Sol Ruca in 6 seconds then said she was almost ready to beat Zaria, but Ruca couldn’t move on.

-At this point, Stone interrupted her by saying it was time to find a challenger.  Zaria walked out and begged to differ with her opinion on how their match went.  She called Ruca jealous and Jayne delusional.  Fallon Henley interrupted and belittled Zaria.  Lainey Reid told Zaria the problem was her.  Zaria talked trash to Fatal Influence, then stopped for an awkward several seconds waiting for Ruca’s music to hit.  Yikes, that was bad.  Ruca’s music didn’t hit on time, but Zaria simply froze and couldn’t think of what to say.  Ruca’s music finally hit, and she came out to talk down Jayne.  She turned her attention to Zaria and said she trusted her.  She said she forgot how much she knows about her, including how to break her heart.  That was an obviously heelish thing to say and she got booed.

-Stone announced (surprise) that this week Jayne would defend against Zaria and Sol Ruca in a triple threat match a week from Tuesday in Houston.  Fatal Influence attacked Ruca, but Zaria threw them off her and stared a hole through Ruca, who looked scared.  Fatal Influence whipped Zaria around to beat on her, and Ruca went for another double Sol Snatcher, but Henley and Reid pulled Jayne out of the way and she only got Zaria.  Reid then landed a vicious knee to Ruca’s temple and laid her out.  Fatal Influence gloated over the fallen frenemies before they cut to a commercial break.
