I've got to jet my friends... got an early flight to Vegas to hopefully catch that press conference tomorrow. But thank you for following along. I hope you enjoyed yourselves - I know I did. Be sure to come on back for our SmackDown Live commentary and I'LL see you guys on Monday.

So... lots of good matches. No major surprises other than the new Crusiserweight Champion... and hold on a minute...

Next week, Tomasso Ciampa and Angel Garza have a match, as well as North American Champion Roderick Strong and Velveteen Dream.

Next week is going to be, as the kids say, lit.

RESULT: UK Champion WALTER defeats Kushida

Short clothesline lariat and WALTER finally picks up the win.

But what a match.

Not this Full Sail crowd, that's for sure.

Shotgun dropkick by WALTER and a HUGE powerbomb and KUSHIDA STILL KICKS OUT!

SOME OF US WANT TO GO TO BED, YOU TWO!!!

WALTER bites his way out of the hold, but - as they say- the damage is done.

This match is great.

WALTER goes to the top turnbuckle, probably going for a Frog Splash, but Kushida is all "nah son"

Kushida goes for the hoverboard lock off the top rope

He's got it locked in!

Don't underestimate @KUSHIDA_0904...

This match is INTENSE as @WalterAUT and @KUSHIDA_0904 CLASH on #WWENXT! pic.twitter.com/xs4czz5rDj

Half nelson pumphandle suplex by WALTER and Kushida STILL kicks out.

WALTER picks up Kushida, but Kushida rolls him up and gets a 2.

A little back and forth and KUSHIDA NEARLY HAS HIM IN THE CROSS ARMBREAKER

Kushida has WALTER in a ,,, nearly has him... in the Hoverboard Lock.

WALTER gets free and now Kushida is in a sleeper!

Kushida gets to the ropes.

Both men beat the count and are back in the ring.

WALTER and Kushida on the ring apron, trading chops and kicks until the UK Champ runs RIGHT INTO THE RING POST!

And Kushida with a rolling DDT to the ring floor on WALTER!

We're back and I'm starting to think Kushida wishes we weren't.

A little catch as catch can and Kushida is on his feet and patting WALTER patronizingly on the head. WALTER is not happy.

Good thing we're going to a commercial.

WALTER tosses Kushida around to start, so Kushida goes for some kicks to the legs.

That doesn't work.

Remember to type WALTER's name like you're making an angry post on YouTube - all caps.

And here is WALTER, standing in front of the loading screen from Destiny 2.

Kushida! It's time!

Speaking of time... really, what's the Back to the Future thing? I like those movies, too, but geez.

Everybody backstage congratulating Lio Rush on his Crusierweight Championship win.

Well, not everybody. But, like, three or four people.

Hey, that's more people than came to my high school graduation, so that's not bad.

Now, we get some words from Pete Dunne.

Basically, he gets why Damian Priest did what he did, attacking him, but Dunne's gonna beat him up anyway.

Peep those deets. 👀

Backstage is intense. @WalterAUT and @KUSHIDA_0904 are about to tear the roof off this joint. #WWENXT

KUSHIDA VS WALTER IS NEXT! Get your snacks and go to the bathroom now while you still can.

I sure am.

We get another video package about Finn Balor.

Hey! That Velasquez/Lesnar/Strowman/Fury press conference in Las Vegas on Friday will be LIVE on the WWE Network.

Bianca grabs a mic and takes offense at Rhea Ripley claiming that SHE'LL be the one to beat Shayna Baszler.

Don't you be callin' out my girl, Bianca. OHNOYOUDIINT

Belair nails the KOD and gets the win.

RESULT: Bianca Belair defeats Dakota Kai

Belair goes for a powerbomb, but Kai punches her way out and hits the sunset flip. 2 count.

Belair manages a spear into the corner and a standing shooting star press! Belair only gets a 2! Belair is... really not happy about that.

Kai with another pin attempt and Belair STILL kicks out.

Well, we just had an ad break and we return to Dakota Kai with the upper hand. Belair keeps trying to fight back and Kai keeps kicking her really hard.

Running dropkick into the corner. Kai goes for the pin. Only gets a 2.

The fastEST.
The strongEST.
The smartEST.
The most confident...EST.#WWENXT @BiancaBelairWWE pic.twitter.com/DlGYR41HAW

Belair launches Kai high... sorry... in the air and into the turnbuckle and DANG. Kai's head came inches from slamming into the ring post.

#TeamKick vs #EST . Im torn. #WWENXT

We're not sure what @AngelGarzaWwe said to @NXTCiampa...

...but we know what happened after he said it. #WWENXT pic.twitter.com/u5x2KRrLJH

Ready for our next match? You better be, because it's happening!

Dakota Kai vs Bianca Belair

What happened during the commercial? Let's find out.

Angel Garza just tried to step to Tomasso Ciampa. He says something to him in Spanish. Ciampa lays him out with one punch.

Cathy Kelley: "Tomasso, what did he just say?"
Ciamapa: "I have no idea"

This is @roderickstrong's future according to @VelveteenWWE... #WWENXT pic.twitter.com/VMfAzgQLXp

Giant German Dominik Mysterio and Japanese Marty McFly are fighting tonight.

"Goldie? Daddy's home!"

Ciampa opens a folding chair, sits down, and prepares to talk.

Velveteen Dream shows a photo of a naked Strong with the NA title draped over his waist. Then one without the belt (it's censored, America, settle down)

As The UE freaks out, here comes Tomasso Ciampa with his trademark crutch!

That's a really weird thing to have as a trademark. No weirder than a 2X4 piece of wood, I guess.

Cole is in the ring with his buddies, letting everybody know that there's no dethroning the Undisputed ERA.

"Excuse me? Did someone say 'Dream'?"

After a nice little distraction from the Undisputed Batting Average, Stong gets a bunch of backbreakers and a submission on Scott and wins.

RESULT: Roderick Strong defeats Isaiah "Swerve" Scott
