Spears says that this is a prime of example of how you’re unable to answer a simple question like, who is Josh Briggs? The only thing that Briggs is showing to the world is his insecurities and misguidance.

The Women’s North American Championship Summit 

Booker T: Yes, yes, yes. There she is, right there in all of her glory, the Women’s North American Championship. And the question is, which one of you talented superstars is going to climb that ladder on Sunday, and grab glory? I’m talking about history, baby. I look at this ring right now, and I see talent, I see the future of this business. Oh, yes, man. And the question is, who is going to be the first? Michin, I ask you, first. What are you going to do on Sunday at Battleground to get it done?

Michin: Booker, ever since AVA announced this new title, I knew I had to be a part, to be the first champion. Now, unlike my opponents, I know what it takes. I’ve had my face shattered, my nose broken, all in NXT, all in a ladder match. And I loved it. And that’s the best part about being at NXT, because I get to be me, The HBIC. And on Sunday, The HBIC is walking out of Las Vegas, the new Women’s North American Champion.

Jaida Parker: You know what, Michin? I find it hilarious how you think you could just come around here and run everything. Now, you came back to NXT, but baby this ain’t no black and gold. It’s Jaida Parker’s time. And if you even come close to my title, I’m going to your ass black and blue. And I’m going to be the first woman to be the first ever NXT Women’s North American Champion.

Fallon Henley: And her name is Fallon Henley. But, you see, this is my kind of match. I don’t have to carry the deadweight of any tag team partners or worry about anybody else’s feelings, because when I look in this ring, I don’t care about a single one of you. So, I will step on and over all of you to get what I want, because that championship, it was created for me.

Kelani Jordan: Hold on, Fallon. Where does the title say your name? It doesn’t. Look, we’re all more than qualified to become the first ever NXT Women’s North American Champion. And you guys say you want it, but nobody wants it like Lani. Nobody is willing to take the risk like Lani. And nobody is willing to put their body on the line like Lani. Because these people, my people, they deserve a champion like Lani.

Booker T: Oh, baby. Now, hold on, let’s reset for a second. Can I get a shucky ducky quack-quack? Oh, yes, man. Let’s go to the one, the one who was number one in the combine, and that is Sol Ruca. Sol, you may be a little bit out of your element, in a match like this. What are you going to do to get it done?

Sol Ruca: You know, I just was going to sit back and let these girls get out all of their insults and jabs to each other, because every single woman here thinks that they’re going to be the one, the one at the top of that ladder at the end of the match, with that championship title. But the fact is, five of them are going to be wrong. Now, I’m not going to say anything to cut you guys down, but I will say this. Five souls will be snatched on Sunday.

Lash Legend: I’m go ahead and let you know that you’re not snatching a damn soul, near this way, thank you. But, look, honestly, it’s been a rough couple of weeks. But on Sunday, it’s about me. Sunday is about Lash Legend going from someone with potential to a woman who calls herself the NXT Women’s North American Champion.

Jaida Parker: Wow, Lash, I never knew you could think of anything other than Big Trick.

Booker T: Oh, no. You know what? I know where this is going. I know where this is going now.

Lash Legend: You’re right, Booker. What are you trying to do, Jaida? You’re talking all of this talk.

– A pier six brawl breaks out in the ring.

Gallus, Oba Femi and Wes Lee Segment 

Joe Coffey: Sorry not sorry. Wrong place. Wrong time, lads.

Mark Coffey: Now that we’re back to being a full squad, not like last week, when Wolfie was banned from ringside.

Wolfgang: But it’s alright for Sexxy Red to be in the corner of Trick and Je’Von.

Joe Coffey: You see that there is the problem.

Mark Coffey: No, that is one of the problems.

Joe Coffey: You see, maybe if we cared about TikTok or if maybe we had a million followers or if we took beach selfies with AVA or if we shook our ass up and down or if we played another sport, the WWE Universe would respect us. And Wolfie, if you were there last week, we would’ve had our starting lineup, and it would’ve been another victory for the Gallus crew.

It means anything goes, and we will do anything to Battleground to make sure I’m leaving with the North American Championship.

Oba Femi: Gents, gents, it would be foolish for me to regard you as anything less than extremely dangerous. But the three of you as a collective, you have caused chaos all across the division. But Mark, Wolfgang, listen to me, you can try to help your brother, Joe, but I’ve said this before, and I’ll say it again. The outcome remains the same.

Wes Lee: Hey, yo, back here. Hey, look, everybody is saying their peace right now, but in order for me to win my championship back, I’m going to have to go three angry Scottish men, hell bent on mayhem, and the most dominant superstar in the game right now. Cardiac Kid is ready to do what he has to do.

Trick Williams, Ethan Page, AVA Segment 

AVA: Alright, Mr. All Ego. You wanted to do this publicly, so here we are. Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome, Ethan Page. Now, Ethan, this is not how I like to handle business, but against my better judgement, I’m making an exception. So, could we please just get this finished?

Ethan Page: Yeah, no, no, no. Honestly. Listen, AVA, I’m sorry, did you get invited to come out here to sign a contract to NXT? No, how about you shut the hell up? But, AVA, I want to thank you.

AVA: Ethan, we really need to get this signed.

Ethan Page: Well, you’re getting Ethan Page, so relax. Look, I want to thank you, but you have to understand one thing. You’re going to have to get used to this Ethan Page calling the shots thing, because if, and that’s a huge if, I sign this contract, I’m going to get a lot of perks that nobody else in the locker room is going to get, and I don’t think they’re going to like that very much. I don’t think you’re going to like that very much. But to be honest, I really don’t give a damn, because I’ve earned that, okay? Because I’m tired of waiting and sitting around for these opportunities. Now I’m going to take them. I’m a little frustrated, but you should have a giant smile on your face because you’re about to sign the wrestler, with the biggest upside in professional wrestling.

AVA: Ethan, those are some very bold claims, but honestly, I’m not signing anyone with these demands.

Ethan Page: No, no, no, you are signing, and you’re signing this contract on live TV, tonight, because you need to sign Ethan Page. Hey, hold on, listen, please. Everybody here knows. Everybody watched the draft. NXT lost, what, eight of its top stars, leaving a giant void, perfectly sized for Ethan Page to fill, and become the face of NXT, and to take this brand to new heights, and to our new home. But you know what, I’m here for the opportunity. I understand there’s a lot of money in this contract, but to be honest with you, I could’ve sat my ass at home for the last two years and collected a check. But I ain’t about that. Ethan Page wants the opportunity, because I hear that, in NXT, talent grants opportunity. And I know when you look at me, AVA, you might hate me with every ounce of you, but you know I’m talented, you know I’m a megastar. Shut the hell up. But more importantly, you know that I’ve earned, and I deserve the ego that I have, because so far in this ring tonight, I haven’t said anything that’s an opinion. No, no, no, I’m only spitting facts. Hey, cut the music. Trick, listen, I don’t know if you know me or not, but I’ve been around the block a couple of times. I’ve seen how these things go. Neither of us are getting put through a table tonight, because Ethan Page only showed up to handle business.

Trick Williams: So, let’s handle business then. AVA, please give this man, Ethan Page, whatever he wants, so Trick Williams and every other person in this building can get exactly what we want, and that’s me to whoop your ass. You see, I know you’re new here, Ethan, so let me help you out, and tell you how things go. You listen to me. I’m Trick Williams. This is my house. I’ve been here for a little minute now, 2.0 to be exact. I got a few boys in the back that were there with me the whole time. And this crowd here, they’ve been here with me this whole time, too. Through the ups, through the downs, through everything in between, they’ve been here. See, my problem with you is, you think you just come to NXT, my house, my home, jump the line, jump me, the NXT Champion. You must be crazy. So, this is how we’re going to do it. I’m going to make an example out of you, Ethan. For every other man in every other business around the world, who thinks you can fly into NXT and get a title opportunity. Because of you, I’m taking you out. Ethan, let me make this crystal clear, make sure you open your ears, so you hear what Trick Williams is telling you. Man-to-man.

Ethan Page: Woah, woah, woah. You’re stepping a little bit too close there. And I think you need to chill out. I said we’re doing business, okay? Calm down. But I understand why you’re so emotional, and you’re angry, because you have every right to be. The last time we crossed paths, I knock you into Lash, I grab that title, held it up for the entire world to see. It was a whole thing, you have every right to be pissed off. But listen to me very clearly, Trick. You and I, whether these people like it or not, have a lot more in common than you think. Oh, I’ve been watching. I saw you with Carmelo Hayes. I saw the spotlight on him, and you in his shadow. And I’ve been in that position a hundred times over in my career. But the only difference is, I wasn’t able to do what you did, and I respect you for that. You broke out. You took that spotlight, and put it where you wanted it, on you. And now you are the NXT Champion. But listen to me, Trick, with that title comes the responsibility of that giant ass target on your back. But more importantly, it comes with that spotlight that Ethan Page, oh, I crave that spotlight. So, it wasn’t anything personal when I attacked you. No, it was me making an opportunity for me. So, AVA, I think I’m ready to sign that contract. And now all we need is the general manager’s signature.

Trick Williams: AVA, please sign the dog-gone contract.

AVA: Trick, I can’t agree to stipulations in this contract.

Trick Williams: So, what’s the problem? Why not?

Ethan Page: Because if she signs the contract, she’s signing on for two things, Trick. One, she’s giving me my first match in this company this Sunday at Battleground, for this NXT Title. And two, she’s signing on the end of the Whoop That Era.

Trick Williams: AVA, you have been here for a long time. We built this place together. Let me make this crystal clear. You can’t end nothing, dog. On come June 9th, at Battleground, you’re going to be hearing one thing. Best believe you’ll be hearing one thing. NXT, tell him what we’re going to do.

– A loud Whoop That Trick chant breaks out. AVA signs the contract and makes the match official as the show goes off the air.
