Pyro goes off all throughout the arena and the camera zooms around, showing numerous fans all showing their support for the return of NXT, We then go ringside where Corey Graves and Tom Phillips are standing by.
Tom Phillips: Hello ladies and gentlemen and welcome to NXT! I'm Tom Phillips and with me is my broadcast partner, former International Champion, Corey Graves.
Corey Graves: And speaking of International Champions, what a main event we got tonight when the International Champion Kevin Steen goes one on one with little Spike Dudley. It's going to be a blood bath!
Tom Phillips: I wouldn't count out the heart and fight of Spike though Corey, he's been dying for a shot and he won't go away quietly.
Corey Graves: Who cares about heart when you're a destroyer. Speaking of which, two massive giants go up against the men who have been causing havoc for Rey Mysterio, Bulletproof.
Tom Phillips: And the feud between the Wyatt Family and the Bloodline continues when Harper and Rowan take on the Usos.
Corey Graves: Plus, Daniel Bryan goes up against up and comer Teddy Hart. The contrast in styles is certainly going to make for an interesting match.
Tom Phillips: And lastly, Dolph Ziggler gets revenge for an attack that took place over a month ago. The Lethal Weapon may be thinking about more than just winning this match however.
Corey Graves: But first the match we spoke about earlier. Bulletproof vs Mark Henry and Big Show and it's up next!
Fans give a huge pop for Big Show and Mark Henry as the two giant men come to the ring. The two men look angry, and there boss Rey Mysterio is not with them the two giant men get in the ring.
Tony Chimel: The following tag team contest is scheduled for one fall! Introducing first, at a combined weight of 883 pounds, the team of Mark Henry and the Big Show!
Henry and Show wait in the ring for their opponents.
"Bulletproof by Five Finger Death Punch" begins blasting throughout the PA System as CM Punk and FInn Balor emerges from behind the curtain, the crowd disapproval tonight is stronger than ever. CM Punk and Finn Balor ignores the crowd as they makes their way to the ring.
Tony Chimel: And their opponents, at a combined weight of 408 pounds, CM Punk and Finn Balor, they are...Bulletproof!
The two men enter the ring and size up Show and Henry. Punk just laughs in their face and tells Balor he's got this. Balor heads to the apron and Show tells Henry he'll start off the match. The two men stare at each other laughing while the ref calls for the bell.
DING DING DING
Punk and Show meet up in the center of the ring. They both jack jaws with one another until Big Show goes for the Knockout Punch right away. Punk dodges it and kicks the leg of Show multiple times but Show just shoves him away. Punk comes running back at him with a forearm to the face. Punk continues to attack Show, hitting a barrage of strikes all over Big Show's body. Big Show however just grabs Punk's head and headbutts him and Punk goes flying backwards.
Balor tags himself into the match and runs at Show with a dropkick. Show gets knocked to his own corner and Mark Henry tags himself in. Henry enters the ring and motions for Balor to bring it. Balor throws kicks, much like Punk did, trying to chop down the big man. Henry is unable to get his hands on Finn and the strikes seem to be working. Finn then hits the ropes and comes back but Henry takes him out with a big clothesline!
Corey Graves: Wow! I have been in plenty of matches in my career and seeing a vicious clothesline like that makes me not want to step foot back in that ring.
Tom Phillips: This is what happens when you mess with two giants.
Henry grabs Balor and throws him into the corner. He then takes a couple of steps back before running forwards and hitting a big body splash in the corner. Finn falls to his knees but Henry is there to pick him right back up. He has him in position for the World's Strongest Slam, looking to end things right away but when he throws Balor up, Finn falls behind him and lands on his feet. Mark turns around and gets hit with an eziguri. It's not enough to take the big man down but he is clearly off balance. Finn gets up and runs at him with the Slingblade, taking down the big man! He hops on top of him for the cover.
1 . . .
And right away, Mark powers out, throwing Balor overhead. Balor looks surprised and tag in Punk. Punk rushes into the ring, kicking the downed Henry over and over again. Henry is able to power through most of the hits though and get back up to a knee but that's when Punk starts throwing knees. He's able to back Henry into the corner with a bunch of knee strikes. Punk walks to the opposite corner and mimes aiming a gun at Henry. He then runs at him and connects with a running knee. He grabs Henry's head and looks to follow up with a bulldog but Henry just shoves him away. Henry stumbles over to his corner and Big Show tags himself in.
Tom Phillips: And here we go, the giant is back in! Now Punk should be worried!
Corey Graves: You really want Punk to hate you don't you?
Show comes in and starts throwing jabs to Punk's midsection, knocking him back into the corner. From there, Show pushes Punk's chin up and open hand chops Punk right across the chest, the sound being heard all across the arena! Punk stumbles out of the corner but Show grabs him, drapes his leg over his chest and falls down with the Showstopper! He stays on top of Punk as the ref drops down to count the cover.
1 . . .
2 . . .
But Balor enters the ring and kicks Show in the back of his head. Big Show is angry and he gets up and tries to attack Finn but Balor drops down to the mat, not wanting anything to do with the World's Largest Athlete. Punk uses this to his advantage though and jumps on Big Show's back, locking in a sleeper hold. Big Show tries to throw him off his back but it isn't working. Instead, he grabs Punk's legs and just falls back putting all of his weight on top of Punk.
Both men lie in the ring and slowly come to. They're able to get to their respective corner and tag in their partners. Henry comes in and starts to once again get chopped down by Balor. Once Finn thinks he's done enough damage he hits the ropes and comes back with a crossbody. Henry catches him though and shakes his head. He lfits him up, looking for the World's Strongest Slam again but this time, Finn turns it into a DDT!
Corey Graves: And there's the smarts of Bulletproof. They can counter any move at any stage.
Finn goes straight to the top, wanting to end this quick Big Show comes back into the ring though, looking out for his partner but Punk comes in and tackles Show's leg, nearly bending it backwards. Finn jumps off the top rope and lands right on top of Henry with the Coup De Grace! He lays on top of him and the ref counts the cover.
1 . . .
2 . . .
3 . . .
Tony Chimel: Here are your winners, CM Punk and Finn Balor, Bulletproof!
Seth Rollins and Joey Ryan run out from the back to celebrate with the other members in the ring. All four men raise their arms high and just like last week, they begin to attack. Balor and Ryan target Big Show's knee while Punk attacks Henry and Rollins goes outside to grab a steel chair. Joey Ryan follows his lead and grabs a chair of his own. They place the chair around the leg of Show's and have Finn go to the top. Finn looks down as the crowd boos and jumps off with a double foot stomp right on the chair! Show grabs his leg, nearly crying from the pain.
Punk and Rollins set up the chair in the middle of the ring. They put Mark Henry's face over the steel chair. Seth now goes up to the top rope. His smile sets the crowd off before he jumps off, hitting Henry with the Blackout through the chair! Bulletproof stands tall amongst the slain giants and raise their arms once more, signifying that they're the ultimate threat as the live feed goes elsewhere.
Teddy stands there as a backstage interviewer walks up only for him to snatch away the mic as he points in the other direction as the interviewer sulks away
Teddy Hart
Here's the thing I got myself in trouble with EC3 last week and he sends his little hairy chihuahua ankle biter after me.
Teddy smirks and shakes his head as he brings the mic back up.
Teddy Hart
Well little bearded dragon tonight's going to be a long night tonight as I plan to come out here and make you look foolish. I'm going to ring circles around you, take you out by air and then just for shits and giggles I'm going to super kick you into another concussion stuper. Cuz all you player hating sons of bitches wanna be me, all your women wanna be with me, and when your kids come to see me I greet em with a smile cuz Ted Hart goes the extra mile
Teddy tosses the mic to the side as he walks off as the show continues on.
THE FOLLOWING IS AN EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW WITH THE "AMERICAN DRAGON" DANIEL BRYAN
Interviewer: So....What do you really think about Kevin Steen?
Daniel Bryan: How much time do you have? In short, I think Kevin Steen is a piece of shit.
We are then shown footage of Steen doing many nefarious acts from the past couple of months.
Daniel Bryan: Look, I'm no saint by any means, but I have respect for this business. Kevin Steen and his band of dumbasses don't. They're leeches on this sport, trying to stretch out their 15 minutes of fame. I'll admit Kevin is good, but as long as he associating himself with those pathetic wastes of space The Young Bucks, he'll never live up to his own hype. Surround yourself by mediocrity and you become mediocre. Notice what happened when you tried to have your "boys" jump me from behind.
Flashback to last week on NXT when The Young Bucks and Dave Meltzer tried to sneak attack Bryan. They get a few shots in but Daniel manages to fight back and eventually, after the Bucks leave, Meltzer is left all alone in the ring with Bryan. With the 3 of them looking on, Bryan crashes right into Meltzer with a Dragon's Bite and hospitalizes him.
Daniel Bryan: I broke their precious miserable dipshit Meltzer right in front of their faces. And I took great pleasure in doing it. If you wanna take me out, you're gonna have to do a lot better than that. That's one down. If The Young Fucks have any brains at all, they'll take their noses far away from our business. At No Mercy, Kevin....I want it to just be you and me because I don't want any excuses. I'm going to beat you just like I've done before....only this time, I'm going to become the UWF International Heavyweight Champion.
Interviewer: What's the strategy heading into No Mercy?
Daniel Bryan: Win. By any means necessary. And I do mean...
By any......means......necessary.
We are then shown Bryan and Steen staring each other down as the fans chant "YES!" The screen then fades into the next segment.
10....9....8....7....6....5....4....3....2....1....
The fans explode as "The Final Countdown" by Europe begins playing over the loudspeakers. After the countdown, Daniel Bryan emerges, pointing upwards and leading the crowd in screaming "YES!" He makes his way down the ramp.
Tony Chimel: The following contest is scheduled for one fall! Introducing first, from Aberdeen, Washington, weighing in at 190 pounds, Daniel Bryan!
The former Intercontinental Champion enters the ring and goes to the turnbuckle to start another "YES!" chant until...
When The Music Stops by Eminem feat. D12 blasts through the arena as the crowd who were excited to see Bryan change there tune when Teddy comes walking out as he smirks to the boos as he walks up towards the ring.
Tony Chimel: And his opponent, from Calgary, Alberta, Canada, weighing in at 195 pounds, Teddy Hart!
Teddy hops on the apron with a big shit eating grin, ready to prove himself against a multi time world champion. He enters the ring and the ref calls for the bell.
DING DING DING
Bryan walks right up to Teddy but the Hart backs up into the ropes and tells the ref to get Daniel back. The ref does and Teddy proceeds to stretch. He puts his leg on the top turnbuckle, wasting time before limbering up enough to continue with the match. Bryan again walks up to him but Teddy backs away again and tells the ref he needs to do the other leg now. Bryan is visibly annoyed with this but lets him finish stretching his other leg. Teddy says now he's ready and Brayn is about to move up again but Teddy puts out his hands and tells him to stop. He then proceeds to do jumping jacks, telling Bryan he needs to make sure his heart rate is good.
Corey Graves: That's Teddy Hart for you, a master of getting on people's nerves.
Tom Phillips: I don't care how talented you are, Daniel Bryan is one person you should never make mad.
Corey Graves: You're just saying that because Teddy hates your guts. Real professional Tom.
Bryan is tired of Teddy's stalling tactics so he just delivers a kick right to the chest of Teddy's. Teddy grabs at his chest in pain and Bryan buckles his knee with a kick, sending him on his knees. Bryan then proceeds to do his signature three kicks to the chest, the fans chanting "YES!" in unison with each kick. He takes a step back for the big kick to the head but Teddy falls back and rolls out of the ring.
The fans cheer, knowing Bryan has a feel for suicide dives to the outside. Bryan looks back before hitting the ropes, he dives to the outside but Teddy quickly hops on the apron and kicks Bryan in the face as he's about to come through the ropes. Bryan falls backwards into the ring and grabs his face. Teddy springboards into the ring with a shooting star press landing right on top of Bryan. He hooks the leg for the quick cover.
1 . . .
2 . . .
But Bryan kicks out!
Corey Graves: Oh! I almost thought he had him right there!
Tom Phillips: This man went through 29 other men to win Aztec Warfare, while I'm sure he's still feeling the effects, I don't think one miscalculation will be the end of him.
Corey Graves: A miscalculation? Teddy Hart can capitalize on a miscalculation like no one ever could. Blatant favoritism, I'd expect more from you Tom.
Teddy gets back to his feet and kicks Bryan a few times. He then turns around and hits a standing corkscrew moonsault. He hooks the leg for another quick cover.
1 . . .
2 . . .
Bryan kicks out again! Teddy isn't too worried, knowing he just needs to continue to taking it to Bryan with an aerial assault. He exits to the apron and goes up to the top rope. Bryan is still laying face up in the ring. Teddy leaps off with another shooting star press but Bryan gets his feet up. Teddy however is able to land on his feet and grabs Bryan's feet. He shakes his head and smiles before rolling Bryan back, getting him on his feet and going for a big superkick. Bryan catches his foot however and turns him over, bringing him down to the mat. He steps through and catches Teddy in the Regal Stretch!
Teddy is trying to scramble to the ropes but Bryan's got him in the center of the ring. With the leverage from the stretch, Teddy is ablwe to free his other arm out from under him and use it to punch Bryan in the face multiple times until the hold is finally released. Teddy crawls over to the ropes and uses them to get back on his feet as he holds his back. He sees Bryan is up as well and he runs at with with a wild swing but Bryan ducks behind him and hits a dragon suplex with a bridge for the pin.
1 . . .
2 . . .
And Teddy kicks out this time! The young Hart rolls out of the ring to catch a breather and Brayns knows he has a better chance to land his signature dive this time. He hits the ropes and comes back in a full sprint, diving to the outside, hitting Teddt so hard that he hits the barricade with a loud THUD! Bryan picks him up and rolls him back into the ring. Bryan heads straight for the top and Teddy lies right in the middle of the ring. Bryan leaps off the top and connects with a big flying headubtt! He grabs at his head and still manages to cover Teddy.
1 . . .
2 . . .
Another kick out from Teddy Hart! Bryan tries to immediately follow up by grabbing Teddy's arm and flipping him over, trying to get him in the YES! Lock but Teddy rolls through and gets back to his feet. Bryan is still crouching from trying to get Teddy in the YES! Lock so Teddy wraps his legs around Bryan's head and spikes him head first into the mat with a hurricanrana.
Corey Graves: There you go Teddy! Time to show why you're the most gifted Hart of them all!
Tom Phillips: And you accused me of blatant favoritism?
Corey Graves: I'm not taking away anything form Daniel Bryan. This could be the biggest win of Teddy Hart's career. I want to see new blood succeed Tom, that's what NXT's all about!
Bryan rolls over and Teddy sees and opportunity. He jumps straight to the top rope and turns around. Bryan hasn't moved and after that headbutt and the spike hurrincanrana, Teddy knows Bryan's head is probably swirling so he jumps off with the Shooting Star Leg Drop! Bryan rolls out of the way however and Teddy lands right square on his ass! He sits there, pain seething from his face. Bryan gets up and runs straight at, taking his head clean off with the Dragon Bite! He falls on top of him for the cover.
1 . . .
2 . . .
3 . . .
Tony Chimel: Here is your winner, Daniel Bryan!
Bryan celebrates in the ring as the cameras go elsewhere.
The scene opens up on Bray Wyatt seated backstage.
Bray Wyatt: Roman Reigns. The proud Samoan warrior that would do anything for his family's well being. The self-appointed leader of The Bloodline. Well right now you aren't doing a very good job of either one, friend. A good leader wouldn't lead his family into a can't win situation. Someone that was truly interested in the well being of others wouldn't continually put them in harm's way. Because make no mistake about it, as long as you're looking for a fight with the Wyatts, harm's way is exactly where you'll be and a can't win situation is exactly what you'll be in.
Continually you've tried to prove that you still have fighting spirit, that losing the International Championship hasn't made you lose a step but all you've proven is the opposite. I almost feel sorry for you at this point, Roman, but I'll never pity you to the point that I start taking it easy on you. As long as you and The Bloodline continue to trouble us, we'll continue to oblige your want for a fight.
Though eventually you're going to have to realize that victory isn't possible. In time you're going to be forced to come to your senses and that's when you'll either look for your fights elsewhere or leave the UWF and never fight again. Whether that happens tonight or not remains to be seen, all I know is I'm going to enjoy once again leaving your family at my family's feet. But I won't be the only one smiling, because Sister Abigail will also be pleased. And you can believe that, man.
As soon we hear the intro, the bass kicks into the Tron, we see Blackman walking down to the ring with the fans giving him mixed reactions as he walk down to the ring.
Tony Chimel: The following contest is scheduled for one fall! Introducing first, from Annville, Pennsylvania, weighing it at 246 pounds, Steve Blackman!
Blackman walks down to the ring with his signature kendo stick. Once inside, he places it in the corner and waits for his opponent.
IT'S TIME TO WIN!
Fans in the stands aren't perplexed about who's coming out, and they're just as receptive as the Down With Webster classic begins to play over the speakers in advance of the arrival of the UWF Intercontinental Champion. Dolph Ziggler emerges from the back without his title, clearly unconcerned with its security as he jogs on the spot before performing his signature taunt.
Ziggy heads down the ramp slapping the palms of every fan there before sliding into the ring, standing up, and sizing up Blackman. The ref gets between them and calls for the bell.
DING DING DING
Blackman starts off the match by running at Dolph, trying to quickly end him with a Bicycle Kick! Ziggler side steps however and hits a superkick right to the jaw! Steve falls to the mat and immediately rolls out of the ring, holding his face. He stares up at the ring, looking at Dolph who just shrugs his shoulders and smiles. All this does is piss off Blackman who kicks the steel steps. He then walks up them and gets back into the ring.
The two men lock up in the center of the ring with Dolph transitioning to a side headlock right away. Blackman shoves him away but holds onto his arm and brings him back to throw on his own side headlock. Instead of keeping him in it though, he just straight punches Dolph in the face mutliple times, bringing the Show Off to his knees. Blackman just picks him right back up and hits a snap suplex and floats over for the cover.
1 . . .
Ziggler kicks out right away but Blackman grabs the arm he kicked out with and locks in the cross armbreaker.
Corey Graves: Here we go, Blackman has scouted Ziggler and knows that arm might still not be fully healed after Aztec Warfare.
Tom Phillips: It's certainly a smart strategy but I'm not so sure this match is going end right here.
Dolph tries to lock his hands together but Blackman keeps knocking it away with his own hands, unable to fully get the hold locked in. The Intercontinental Champion is able to get to enough of a vertical base to roll away and breaks Blackman's grip on his arm. Blackman stands back up and the two men circle the ring staring at one another.
Tom Phillips: And it's back to square one in this match. Tell me something Graves, who do you think will come out on top.
Corey Graves: Who will win the match or who'll come out on top? Regardless, I don't think Ziggler's coming out of this match 100%.
Once again, both men lock up in the center of the ring. Dolph pushes Blackman back into the ropes where Blackman goes under the middle of the rope to force the ref to give them some separation. The ref does and backs up Ziggler. Blackman then comes out and feigns a clothesline which Dolph tires to duck under but Blackman didn't actually go for it and now he moves forward and hits the unsuspecting Dolph with a thrust kick to the stomach. Ziggler bends over holding his stomach and that's when Blackman follows up with a scissors kick to the back of his head! Ziggler falls face first and Blackman turns him over for the cover.
1 . . .
2 . . .
And Ziggler kicks out! Blackman looks a little irritated but just turns Dolph over and tries to put him in the Darkside Sleeper. Dolph is able to crawl backwards in between Blackman's legs. Steve turns around and Ziggler leaps up at him and plants him with the jumping DDT! Dolph doesn't follow up, instead laying there to catch his breath. After a few seconds, Blackman starts to make is way over to the ropes. Ziggler grabs his foot to keep him from getting away but Steve just kicks his foot back, kicking Dolph in the face.
Blackman gets back to his feet with help from the ropes. He turns back to see Dolph starting to get back up himself so runs at him and kicks him hard in the chest. Dolph doesn't go down, instead he just stays on his knees and Blackman throws a back kick right to the back of Ziggler's head. Dolph falls face first and Blackman goes for yet another pin.
1 . . .
2 . . .
But Dolph kicks out again! Blackman wants to put Ziggler away so he grabs him by the head and brings him back to his feet. He drapes his arm over his neck and tries to lift him up for a Brainbuster but Dolph hooks his leg on the inside of Blackman's. Blackman tries to overpower him but to no avail. Instead, Ziggler places his head under Blackman's jaw and sits out for the jawbreaker! Blackman stumbles backwards and Dolph gets back up and clotheslines Blackman out of the ring! Dolph wants to follow up so he heads to the outside.
Tom Phillips: And now they're headed back to the outside once again.
Corey Graves: I get why you would do that, but not a smart move by Ziggler. Blackman is way more adept at fighting outside of a ring than Dolph. If someone like Blackman threatened to take me out, the last thing I'd do is walk into his element.
Ziggler goes over to grab Blackman but Steve cuts him off with a big knee to the gut. He then grabs Dolph's head and slams him face first into the announce table. Blackman then throws Dolph back into the ring. Ziggler is getting back to his feet when Blackman slides into the ring. The Lethal Weapon right away goes for a Bicycle Kick but again Dolph moves out of the way. Dolph then feigns a superkick and Blackman turns away from it, remembering the same thing happened in the beginning of the match. Blackman turns back around but walks right into the waiting arms of Dolph who executes a scoop powerslam! He stays on him for the pin.
1 . . .
2 . . .
And Blackman kicks out! This doesn't deter the Show Off though, he gets right up and drops an elbow to the chest of Blackman's. He sticks with the plan of attack and drops another elbow drop on him followed by another, then another. He does this 9 whole times before he gets up a final time, shows off for the crowd and then jumps up high and drops the 10th elbow on Blackman, completing the Heart Stopper. The force of the blow causes Blackman to sit up. He turns over and tries to get up but Ziggler follows up with a Famouser! He turns him over and goes for the cover.
1 . . .
2 . . .
Another kickout from Blackman!
Corey Graves: People like to talk about the heart of Dolph Ziggler, but let's not ignore the heart of Blackman's, both figuratively and literally after those series of elbows.
Dolph back away to the other side of the ring. He stomps his foot, signifying that he's looking for a superkick. Blackman is slowly getting up in the corner but he grabs his kendo stick and starts to walk over but the ref gets between him and Dolph and tries to take the weapon away from Blackman.
While this is going on, there is a commotion heard throughout the arena. Dolph just assumes it's from the weapon attack but suddenly, Teddy Hart hops onto the apron and kicks Dolph in the back of his head. Ziggler stumbles out of the corner and Blackman let's the ref take away his weapon. He sees a prone Ziggler and just runs up and hits him with the Bicycle Kick! Ziggler goes down and the Lethal Weapon covers him.
1 . . .
2 . . .
3 . . .
Tony Chimel: Here is your winner, Steve Blackman!
Blackman grabs his kendo stick and heads straight up the ramp. Dolph is helped sit up in the corner and he looks over to see Teddy smiling as he too makes his way up the ramp. Ziggler now realizes what just happened and he slaps the mat in anger as the cameras go elsewhere.
We head backstage where Renee Young is standing by
Renee Young: My guest at this time, Roman Reigns.
Reigns appears on camera as you hear the Roman Empire cheer him on
Renee Young: Roman, tonight your cousins, the Usos will take on Luke Harper and Eric Rowan. You will be at ringside, as will the other two members of the Wyatt Family, Braun Strowman and Bray Wyatt. This whole Wyatt Family battle with the Bloodline has taken on a whole other level the last few weeks. What are your thoughts on the way between these two families.
Roman Reigns: Families? Nah, Renee, I don't see families. I see the Bloodline, a true family engaged in a war with four goons that think they are a family. More importantly, I see three stooges that bow down to the smallest man in the goons pack. How that makes sense, I will never know, but that's how they are and for some reason, they don't see it that way.
Bray, he has been a thorn in my side since before WrestleMania. He ran his mouth and got his ass kicked. That's what started this war between us. Bray decided to continue to run his mouth after WrestleMania and got my family involved in this. So that's where we are, Renee.
Last week, was last week. The Wyatt Family did what they do best and that is attack you from behind and try to gain any advantage that they can because they know that when they face us straight up, they can't beat the Bloodline. Three on four, we don't need a fourth unlike they do, I like our odds any day of the week.
All of a sudden a producer shows up on camera
Producer: Roman, you need to go to your locker room, now!
Reigns looks at Renee and then walks off. As Roman gets to his locker room, he opens the door and it is pitch black, with the exception of the back of the room. Reigns walks in and sees candles lit on a table and on the wall the saying "ANYONE BUT YOU" with pictures around the words
Roman picks up a chair that is in the room and throws it at the wall as it barrels through the wall. Reigns then walks off in frustration as NXT moves on
UWF NXT keeps rolling as the camera switched to back stage where Xavier Woods is in the "positivity box" trying to get their positivity back after assault from BulletProof last week but it doesn't stop there because Renee Young walks in for an interview
Renee Young: Kofi, we all saw what happened last week with Social Outcast, BulletProof where try attacked both Big E, Xavier Woods, Adam Rose and Heath Slater, along with yourself. How does it feel to be one of the first targets of one of the fastest rising factions in UWF history?
Kofi Kingston looks at Renee Young Trying to hold in his and as he OK the microphone towards him to speak
Kofi Kingston: Renee, we are angry, but I'm trying not to yell at you Renee. Bulletproof wants to come around here and attack people. They nearly gave Big E a concussion. But you come in here asking questions, but you didnt ask any of us if we are okay.
Kofi Kingston takes a pause before speaking again
Kofi Kingston: But no this is not over. When we get our hands on any member of Bulletproof its going to be horrible. They chose the wrong day to mess with the New Day. We got a special surprise for you
Big E began to speak as the positivity box did a "ding" sound as Xavier Woods left it with a smile and Kofi Kingston entered
Big E: When Cm Punk smashed me with that microphone last week, and on the ground, I thought revenge so now this positivity box will have to become the revenge box. So Xavier turn the dial to revenge.
Big E points to the top of the positivity box as Xavier Woods refuses to do as Big E commanded him to do.
Xavier Woods: Big E I can't do it we are suppose to spread positivity. Not to seek revenge on our enemy's.
Big E switches the dial himself, as Renee Young
Big E: Either you are with me or against me. If your not with me you can leave but remember that they attacked you also so it's not like we are seeking revenge for no reason. They nearly gave me a concussion, so Xavier if your not with us , then forget about coming to my birthday party next week.
Xavier Woods thinks hard before answering Big E as Xavier stroked his chin before answering.
Xavier Woods: Oh yeah we were going to the Bahamas for your birthday. Well I already packed and bought might my ticket which is not refundable. So I will be with you. But Bulletproof are the only people we are targeting right?
The bell dinged again as Kofi Kingston came out with an evil grin on his face as he walked out the locker room with a mind set to revenge on the members of Bulletproof.As the scene faded the next [segment/match].
We're brought back from commercial break, and we see both of The Uso brothers standing in the center of the ring, bumping fists, or otherwise wishing each other the best of luck. Then Suddenly, the titantron screen comes alive with the image of the Wyatt Family standing backstage.
Bray Wyatt: "We're here."
Bray blows out the lantern as the arena is now completely dark as, "Live In Fear" begins to play.
Bray makes his way out from the backstage with the rest of the Wyatt Family in tow.
Luke Harper and Erick Rowan both enter the ring, while Strowman fixates Wyatt's rocking chair for him on the outside. Once this is done, Wyatt sits down, and places his hands together with inquisitive poise.
DING DING DING!
Just before the bell had rung, both teams had garnered in their corners to decide who's starting out the match. With that out of the way, it appears Harper and Jey will start out the match. Likewise, they both begin to circle each other in typical fashion, either looking for a lock-up or a double-leg. Regardless of speculation, they lock up in a collarbone-elbow tie-up, with the bigger man, Harper, using his added reach to convert the hold into a front-facelock on Jey. Even further so, Harper attempts to get a quick, snap suplex onto Jey, but just as it appears Jey's about to float-over, Jey shows great abdominal strength by tilting his body off to the right, which disorients Harper, and allows for Jey to engage him in a headlock.
Tom Phillips: "Can't say I expected another kind of offense from The Usos here tonight, Corey."
Corey Graves: "I did, partly. They've just recently came off of a loss from The Wyatt Family. But, if you still doubt that, lemme' ask you something. Do two hillbillies both standing at least six-foot-five or more, sound like the duo to be the most acrobatically coordinated in the UWF?"
Tom Phillips: "I see your point."
Instinctively, Harper leans back whilst in the headlock from Jey, against the ropes. Harper then launches Jey off the ropes for an irish whip, in which, Jey complies by being sent to the opposite rope across the ring for the rebound. As Jey comes running back, he's met by a running shoulder block from Harper, which sends Jey down to the canvas. Harper then paces over to the rope perpendicular to himself for another running attack, but Jey ducks under the assault , in which Harper jumps over him to run across from the opposite rope.
Tom Phillips: "Man, I know what you mean't earlier, Corey. But, boy, can that guy, Harper, move around the ring like no-other big man that's entered the ring before him. We've seen moonsaults from likes of Vader, and standing backflips from the top-turnbuckle, from the feats of Sean O'Haire. But, Harper's realm and hasteful prowess lies in his maneuverability, and cardiovascular stamina."
Corey Graves: "I whole heartedly agree, Tom."
Just as it appears Jey is about to counter-act Harper's momentum with a hip-toss, Harper doesn't move, and instead, uses the implied armlock to his advantage, as he scoops Jey up into the air for a cardilage-crushing front-backbreaker! Harper rushes for the cover.

But, it's only a two-count!
Bray's subtly chuckling in his chair, after the count. But nevertheless, Harper doesn't waste anymore time, as he grabs Jey's hair despite the official's wishes, and uses it to his advantage to pull Jey into his corner with Rowan. Rowan tags himself in, while Harper holds Jey in place, which allows for Rowan to connect well-placed kick to the stomach of Jey. Rowan's clearly of Norweigan-descent, as he connects with several beserking, viking-inspired rights and lefts onto the crumbling mass of Jey. Rowan just about gets his team disqualified, before the referee decides to get involved after almost counting to a five-count. Rowan just barely manages to calm himself down, but as a shooting-rage comes inside him, Rowan lashes out against the audience with a rage-inspired roar, "God is dead, while I'm in this ring!"
Tom Phillips: "And I'm sure he means it too."
Corey Graves: "...Yup."
Erik's just about done with his verbal tantrum, but as he turns around, he's met with a double-leg takedown from Jey, where he unleashes a flurry of fists of his own! The crowd pops for Jey's tenacity, and it takes an official that's only hungry for a good match to pry Jey off of Rowan. Noteably, at this point, Jey was restrained by the official away from his corner, so he can't tag in Jimmy. Seemingly, Harper realizes this, as he decks Jey with a vicious clothesline from Harper's basis on the ring apron! The crowd boos the living shit out of Harper, and the official isn't too happy neither.
Tom Phillips: "Absolutely disgusting. Not only that, all I just witnessed was just an anti-climax from the fire spurred in Jey. "
Corey Graves: "Relax, Tom."
Rowan drags Jey away from the ropes by his right leg, as he quickly falls on top of him for the cover...
1...
2...
But, it's just another two count!
Rowan's getting mad, once again. He drags Jey up by his long hair, but as he does so, Jey places his cranium under the jaw of Rowan, and connects with a jaw-jacking jawbreaker which sends him reeling backwards against the ropes, and for a rebound against them. As Rowan rebounds, Jey connects with a kick to the gut of Rowan, which in response, calls for a kick to the nose of Rowan, that sends him back up to a vertical basis. Rowan's stunned, and Jey definitively follows through with one-last kick, in the form of a jaw-crushing superkick to the jaw of Rowan. Jey falls on top of Rowan for the cover...
1...
2...
But, it's only a two count on Rowan!
Jey and Rowan are both seemingly down for the count, as the crowd attempts to rally Jey to his feet to tag in Jimbo. Meanwhile, Bray has risen from his rocking chair, and is screaming for Rowan to get up to his feet. Subsequently, both men get to their feet at the same time, and as Jey attempts to dive for his corner, his foot gets caught by Rowan, which inhibits him from getting closer to Jimmy. Then suddenly, Jey turns around and connects with an enziguri that sends Rowan back into his corner. And thus, Jimmy is tagged into the match, and is looking like a house of fire, and the recently-tagged in Harper is looking to extinguish him!
Tom Phillips: "Oh my god! get ready to watch this, Corey!"
Jimmy sprints across the ring to Harper, in which he connects with a flying clothesline that sends him back down to the canvas. Harper tries to run at him again-and-again, but nevertheless, is met with the same treatment. One last time, Harper attempts another clothesline, but Jimmy has other plans, as he ducks under this time, and lifts Harper up for a brief, Standing Fireman's Carry, and drops him back down for a samoan drop! Jimmy lands on top of him for the cover!
1...
2...
But, it's only a two count on Harper!
Jimmy doesn't seem too surprised, and as such, lifts Harper up by his hair to position him for some kind of running attack from off the ropes. However, as Jimmy attempts for the previously acclaimed running attack, Harper uses Jimmy's momentum against him, in which he lets Jimmy pass by for another rebound off of the ropes, and as such, spins around for a massive, discus clothesline that sends The Uso brother that was at the mercy of momentum, head-over-heels! Harper flips Jey over for the cover...

Ding Ding Ding!
Tony Chimel: "And here are your winners..."
HARPER AND ROWAN!
But, it doesn't look like The Wyatt Family are finished yet, as Harper continues to rain down fury-inspired fists onto the cranium of the helpless Jimmy Uso. Like moral clockwork, the relatively-exhausted Jey Uso attempts to run in to save his brother, but is ultimately caught by a big boot from Rowan, and thus, the beatdown begins. At this point, Strowman and Wyatt have both entered the ring to admire the work Rowan and Harper have done, and are still doing to the Usos. Until...
It's Roman Reigns, and it looks like he's taking no prisoners! He bolts into the ring with a full-head of steam, and immediately connects with a Superman Punch to the Jaw of Rowan, that sends him clean under the bottom rope, in an attempt to escape from a further onslaught. However, in this time, Harper, Strowman, and Wyatt have both evacuated the ring, and have gathered Rowan so that they may leave the arena. Bray Wyatt has a big smile on his face for Roman's irony, as he waves a large, meaty finger to Roman, which is basically saying there'll be another time for this to happen. As such, Nitro rolls on...
The titantron switches from the UWF NXT graphic to a live feed from backstage, where Kevin Steen is shown getting ready in his locker room. His UWF International Championship belt is resting on the bench beside him. "Mr. Wrestling" is just finishing lacing his boots when The Young Bucks walk in.
Steen: What's up?
Nick: Just checking in on ya big guy, making sure you're all ready to go.
Kevin nods, but then notices something...
Steen: Where's Dave?
Matt: Just got off the phone with Mrs. Meltzer. Dave is still recovering after the attack from Bryan last week. Doc says he had a fractured nose, cracked orbital bone and a concussion.
Nick: Which is nothing compared to what Bryan is going to have when we get our hands on him...
Steen: No. He's mine. You let me worry about Daniel Bryan. I can handle it. He thinks he can rip us apart and take what belongs to me. He thinks that by taking out Dave we'll fall apart. It's not gonna happen. We need to be stronger than ever now that we finally a platform worthy of our talent. NXT is our show. It is the property of Team Meltzer, just like these titles. We need to focus on keeping what's ours'. That means you two need to keep your eyes on The Dudleyz, especially tonight. God only knows they're going to try and get involved when they see just how badly I'm beating up their little brother.
Nick: Hey, no worries man. We've got those tubby doofuses covered. They don't even know how to beat us. They're under our thumb.
Matt: And if they try and stick their nose in your business tonight... BOOM, those noses are getting superkicked.
Steen: That's right. Heads up all night. I wouldn't be surprised if Bryan decided to show his face, too. That's the thing about being champions, suddenly everybody wants a piece of you. Me? I've got Daniel Bryan, the self-righteous, self-proclaimed prick just begging me to kicks his ass. Reigns is just chomping at the bit to get humbled all over again. Mysterio has that Money in the Bank briefcase, there's a half dozen other guys on their way to the main event who would trade an arm and a leg for a shot at my gold. Not to mention all the guys on Raw who must be looking over and wondering how they'd fare against a real champion while their two fake ones crush cans.
I've got a target on my back at all times. But I'm still here... reigning, defending champion. I've been tricked out of titles before. Outwitted because I was only looking ahead of me, not behind or beside. But my eyes are wide open now, and I've got you two with me. Nobody is going to sneak this belt out of my hands. They're just going to have to take it the good old fashioned way - by beating me fair and square. To be honest with you, I don't think there's a man on this show... our show... that can.
We're all champions for a reason, and we're going to stay champions as long as we stick tight. So make sure nobody gets in between and Spike Dudley tonight. I've had to listen to that little piece of trash run his mouth and entertain his delusions of grandeur. He's got a real need to get his mouth shut for good, and it's been a few weeks since I got to beat somebody up. I wanna take my time. I wanna make it hurt. And I want the world to see it... Daniel Bryan, The Dudleyz, and anyone else who thinks that they can stop Team Meltzer... let's show them why this is our show.
The Bucks smile as Kevin stands up with his title belt. They head out of the locker room, ready to go for the main event. NXT continues elsewhere.

The General Manager of NXT makes his way down to the ring in a tailor made suit, looking as smug as ever. He enters the ring where there is already a podium set up for him.
EC3: Ladies and gentlemen, as I'm sure you're all well aware, No Mercy is coming up on June 18th and so far only two matches have been announced. Well I'm out here to officially announce the other four matches that will be taking place at No Mercy. First of all, Teddy Hart has been sneak attacking Dolph Ziggler for the past two weeks. It's obvious he's trying to take a short cut to the Intercontinental Championship and I will not allow that. I'm all about earning opportunities. Maybe if he beat Daniel Bryan earlier tonight, it would be a different story. Dolph however begged me to give him this match to teach Teddy a lesson. No Mercy needs an Intercontinental title match so I figured, what the hell. If Teddy can beat Dolph, then he's proven he's worthy of the Intercontinental Championship.
One man who did beat Dolph though was Steve Blackman. Sure Teddy got involved but a wins and win and I can't stop Rhino and Blackman from tearing each other apart forever. That's why I'm giving them a match to settle this once and for all. Rhino vs Blackman for the Hardcore Championship in a Last Man Standing Match.
The fans cheer, knowing that's going to be a hell of a match.
There's also two more rivalrys that have gotten out of hand. There's some bad blood stemming from Aztec Warfare and maybe none more bad than CM Punk and Rey Mysterio. So at No Mercy, they're going to settle their differences when they go one on one and Bulletproof is banned form ringside. I would ban Henry and Show as well but, well, I don't think they'll be a problem after what went down tonight.
A smile comes across EC3's face wihich angers the crowd.
And last but not least, we have the problems between the Bloodline and the Wyatt Family. Things have gotten a bit out of hand so I figured why not let all these men duke it out. So at No Mercy, it's the entire Wyatt Family vs the Bloodline and a mystery partner in an 8 man tag team match. And to make sure we have a definite winner, there will be no disqualifications. Enjoy the rest of the show.
The events of the match just ended, and Rey Mysterio is sitting there on his couch at home, and he is holding his ribs. The former hero of Thunder and Nitro looks on sad as he sees Big Show, and Henry down, and Bulletproof beating them down.
Rey Mysterio: No Show....
Henry...
A replay of the assualt is being shown the damage that the men did, and Rey turns away he can't look and he turns to the camera and he speaks
Rey Mysterio: Bulletproof what you did to my sidekicks.... no not just my sidekicks my amigos... You'll will face redemption. You see Big Show and Mark told me I shouldn't go tonight. I wanted to be out there with them, but they told me to relax, and not injure myself any further... Well injury or, I am not going to sit down here, and let you guys keep doing this. You villains need to be stopped. I have dealt with worse injuries before. This isn't my first injury, and it won't be my last. It doesn't matter what pain I go through I will always come back better then before.
Rey gets up, and you can see the former champion is limping. The Hero now of the NXT brand is not walking well either. He is walking but it isn't stopping him the camera is following him, and Rey goes to his closet and he puts on a jacket Rey keeps walking, and he goes by his door, and he continues to talk.
I have gone through steel cage doors, I have gone through ladders, ambulances, and even death and I have come back better then ever. So Bulletproof just know if you think you have won... You haven't this isn't the end, because I will be back on NXT, and I am going to save the brand from the tyranny that you're trying to spread on the brand.
Fans cheer as Rey exits his house, and he is outside and he stands there as the camera follow him from behind, and turns and looks at him.
Remember who you guys are dealing with. You're dealing with the hero of Thunder, Nitro, and now NXT Rey Mysterio the longest reigning world champion in the UWF's history. You're not dealing with some average joe you're dealing with a real threat. A hero who knows how to outsmart every single villain on that roster... You men are no different you're just like every other men who I have faced... So be ready because I am coming for revenge.
NXT continues, the camera switches to the backstage area Ethan Carter III is seen walking pass as he says these words passing The New Day's locker room as they were listening
Ethan Carter III: I've gotta find a way to take care of Bulletproof before this thing get out of control.
The New Day quickly ran out of their locker room and get Ethan Carter III's attention as he turned around to say what dumb thing they were gonna say.
Xavier Woods: We heard that you are looking for someway to get the bulletproof out of here. Well its a good thing you got us because we got business to settle with them . So we want the bulletproof in a 3 on 4 handicap match next week.
Big E smiles funny as he began to speak
Big E: You know what I want to do to them? I want to fold them up and put them in a box and mail them far away like Egypt. Then that's how we will get rid of them.Or maybe we can leave them where ever we have our next live show.
Ethan Carter looked on a bit scared at what Big E said but he strongly thought about what Xavier Woods Said and replied
Ethan Carter III: Big E I think you should go back into the positivity box and turn it up to the higher it can go. But as for what you said Xavier it can not be a 4 on 3. I like you guys and I don't want to be the one responsible for what happens to you. I know what punk can do I just don't want it to be on me for what punk did so I'll do this. Kofi Kingston and Big E vs Finn Balor and Joey Ryan next week on NXT
Kofi Kingston and Big E smiles as Xavier looks pissed that he is not in another match and hasnt been in any yet but Ethan Carter III walks off because he is busy
The unmistakable thumping of "Godzilla" blasts through the PA - it's volume is immediately matched by the screaming boos of the crowd. The UWF International Champion walks out from behind the screen and on to the stage, his eyes fixed on the ring. From behind him emerge the UWF Tag Team Champions, and the trio head down to the ring as the fans continue to boo the collective "Team Meltzer."
Steen climbs up onto the apron and into the ring while the Jacksons circle it to stand by his corner at ringside, and the trio await their opponents for the evening. The crowd are still booing Steen but that doesn't last long as fireworks shoot from the ceiling down onto the stage as an unfamiliar theme song plays out of the PA System with a new video being played on the Titantron.
The crowd rise to their feet as a superstar comes out to the public eye. Cheers fill the arena as only Spike Dudley comes onto the stage. Spike looks out into the crowd, pointing out to the them, whilst putting the 3D sign in the air. He goes to walk down the ramp, stopping himself and pointing back towards the curtains. The crowd aren't left waiting as Spike's brothers burst through and onto the stage with him. The cheers continue as the trio head down to the ring, Bubba and Devon immediately heading around it to Spike's corner at ringside while Spike slides in and climbs a turnbuckle to throw his arms up defiantly for another huge pop!
Spike then climbs down and the referee performs some quick pre-match checks before calling for the starting bell.
DING DING DING!
The fans are still cheering for Spike as the starting bell rings, but Kevin Steen puts an immediate stop to that as he charges the smaller man and shoulder blocks him to the canvas. When Spike stands up, he does so into a brutal lariat, and when he stands up again it's to be shoved into a corner where Steen begins to unload on him with a series of alternating shoulder and knee thrusts. There's little that the Littlest Dudley can do while Steen has him cornered, but the fans kick up a "SPIKE!" chant anyway.
Tom Phillips: Spike Dudley may be quite literally backed into a corner here but the fans are rallying behind him.
Corey Graves: I have a feeling that what you're watching now is going to be the extent of the match tonight, Tom. Spike is completely outmatched by the much larger Kevin Steen.
Steen allows a brief lull in the assault to grab Spike by the hair and shout into his face. "You're nobody, Spike! And you'll never be anything more!" But as he runs his mouth, he gives the Dudley Runt enough time to catch a breath. Steen, oblivious to this fact, heads to the opposite corner while running his mouth to the crowd (who are booing the shit out of him), and then takes off full charge at Spike, but eats a boot when Dudley gets his foot up! Steen doesn't fall, but is stopped suddenly in his tracks and then staggers backwards. Spike capitalizes by hopping up onto the second rope and as Steen turns around, he leaps off, catches Steen in a head clutch and hits him with a spinning tornado DDT! The fans pop as Spike hooks the leg but doesn't even get a one-count.
Tom Phillips: I guess this match isn't going to be as one-sided as you thought, Corey.
Corey Graves: Shut up, Tom.
Spike heads for the ropes as Steen gets to his feet, and immediately grounds him again with a running crossbody. When Steen stands up once more, Spike puts him on the canvas all over again with a bulldog. This continues for the better part of a minute - Steen standing back up, Spike putting him back down, before Kevin rolls out of the ring to regroup with the Young Bucks, clearly red-faced and angry that the runt of the Dudley litter is giving him any difficulty at all.
Corey Graves: I could only imagine how frustrating Spike Dudley has been for Kevin Steen.
Tom Phillips: He requested this match, Corey.
Steen climbs back onto the apron and in to the ring, Spike paying him the courtesy of letting him enter before charging him. Steen sees the charge coming and bends down to toss Spike over the ropes to the outside, but the Dudley brother lands on the apron and as Steen walks away, Spike springboards back in with a dropkick to his upper back that sends Steen sprawling into the ropes on the other side before rebounding into a trip and a hasty pin!
1...
...NO!
Tom Phillips: A one-count! Spike Dudley is bringing more of a fight tonight than many would have wagered.
Corey Graves: But it's not going to be enough. He needs the official to count to three, not to one.
Dudley is up first, and then Steen, and Spike immediately looks to press the advantage by setting in on Steen with a series of lefts and rights but Mr. Wrestling literally no-sells all of the blows before kicking Spike in the gut and planting him with a DDT so ugly it belongs in a slasher flick. Steen then pulls Spike back to his feet before Irish whipping him so hard into a corner that Spike rebounds right back out of it and into Mr. Wrestling's waiting grips for a brutal belly-to-belly suplex. Spike slowly works back to his feet, but as he does he's grounded once more by a sickening lariat and Steen falls in for the pin.
Corey Graves: Told you. It was only a matter of time.
1...
2...
...NO!
The fans explode as Spike somehow finds it in himself to get the shoulder up! The Dudleyz pound on the apron and shout discouraging words at Kevin Steen, who glares icily at them before standing up and going to take a strip out of the official's hide. When Steen is done with that verbal assault, he turns back around to find Spike crawling for the ropes. Steen grabs him by the ankle to drag him back to the center of the ring, then pulls him up, puts him in position and unceremoniously executes a package piledriver!
Tom Phillips: My God...
Corey Graves: This one is over.
Steen hooks the leg.

...
Kevin breaks the pin.
Corey Graves: Oh, no, no, no - what are you doing Steen! Win the damn match!
Steen stands up, then pulls Spike to his feet and smacks him on the face. "What're you gonna do now, jackass? Huh? Look at you! You're a pathetic excuse for a wrestler!" Steen shouts at him. He then positions Spike for another package piledriver as the fans boo the living shit out of him.
Tom Phillips: Despicable. Just end the match!
The Dudley Boyz have seen enough and climb up onto the apron. Steen stands there, holding Spike and shouting at both of the Dudley Boyz, daring them to enter the squared circle and get theirs. Just before they do, the Young Bucks pull them down from the apron and a brawl ensues on the outside! Steen laughs maniacally, but his laughter is cut short as Spike Dudley reverses out of the clutch and into an inside cradle!
1...
2...
...3!
DING DING DING!
Here is your winner,
SPIKE DUDLEY!
Corey Graves: I don't believe it. This is ridiculous!
Tom Phillips: Kevin Steen said there would be no Cinderella story but he was just proven wrong by a never-say-quit Spike Dudley here tonight, Corey!
Spike - and the fans - are in stunned disbelief, but the bewilderment doesn't last long as Steen comes crashing in with some blows from behind. Mr. Wrestling looks to throw Spike into a corner but the Dudley Runt changes direction and instead slides out of the ring under the bottom rope, where he finds his back-up waiting, having momentarily dispatched the Bucks. The Dudley trio regroup on the outside and Devon and Bubba raise spike's arm in the air as Steen is left to watch on, fuming, from inside the ring, but this momentary respite doesn't last long as Steen comes lurching at the ropes and leaps clear over them with a suicide dive that brings all three men to the floor!
Tom Phillips: Things are about to get more violent here, but is this really even necessary?
Corey Graves: You should never stay to celebrate when you steal a win!
Steen gets back up, grabs Spike and pulls him to his feet before throwing him mercilessly into the ring steps! The fans start to boo Mr. Wrestling again as the Young Bucks recover and assault the Dudley Boyz, the four trading blows before the Bucks get the upper hand, bounce the Dudleyz' faces off the aprons, and then - on either side of them - launch synchronized superkicks that connect flush with Bubba and Devon's respective jaws. Steen then hauls Spike up and positions him for a powerbomb, turning toward the ring apron when...
10....9....8....7....6....5....4....3....2....1....
...as soon as the music starts, Steen turns toward the stage and slams Spike down on the floor, leaving him writhing. From the back comes the Absolute Best, and Bryan runs straight down the ramp before launching off his feet to hit Steen point blank with a Dragon's Bite! Bryan gets to his feet and tells Steen to get up, but while he's waiting for Kevin to stand he finds himself on the receiving end of a 2-on-1 assault at the hands of the Young Bucks! In the chaos, the Dudleyz get the hell outta dodge, grabbing Spike and retreating to the back.
Tom Phillips: The Dudleyz now abandoning the man who came out to save their third man!
Corey Graves: They haven't forgotten all the hell Daniel Bryan did with his boys way back when on Nitro. Daniel Bryan stuck his nose where it didn't belong and now he's paying for it.
Matt and Nick back Bryan up to the barricade and start launching alternating shoot kicks at his stomach and chest as Steen gets back to his feet, then toss him into the ring. Steen follows in and hauls Bryan to his feet before picking him up in package piledriver position and unceremoniously planting him right there, the fans booing as Matt and Nick slide into the ring and the trio begin to celebrate their moral - if not literal - victory as the show concludes.
