The NXT Women's Tag Team Champions were celebrating backstage when they ran into The Way's Candice LeRae and Indi Hartwell. Ember Moon and Shotzi Blackheart laughed at the challenge, as they'd already beaten them before. LeRae vowed that they'd do it Their Way, on their time.


Jordan Devlin vs Kushida on NXT

Jordan Devlin got first blood in the final match on NXT this week, spiking him with a uranage and hitting a standing moonsault to follow up. A back elbow rocked Kushida, but he was able to counter a hip toss with one of his own, hitting the NXT Cruiserweight Champion with a basement dropkick.

Kushida wrenched the left arm of Devlin using only his feet, leaving the Irish Ace writhing in pain. On the floor, though, Devlin caught Kushida with a springboard moonsault, regaining control in an exciting fashion.

Throughout the break, Devlin worked over the shoulder of Kushida, hoping to weaken that Hoverboard Lock as much as possible. The Japanese superstar was able to turn things around with the springboard back elbow and the wind-up punch. Devlin was stunned but was able to get to the ropes to avoid the Hoverboard Lock.

Kushida set up for the hammerlock suplex, but Devlin was able to block. A slingshot cutter planted Kushida for the two-count. The NXT Cruiserweight Champion failed to hit the Devlin Side due to his bad arm, forcing him to get creative. They fought to the top, but Devlin was distracted by Legado Del Fantasma.

Kushida hit a rolling double kick and a superplex. Floating over, Kushida went into a cross armbreaker. He made it to the ropes, only to be pulled to the floor by Raul Mendoza and Joaquin Wilde. He made it back inside and sent Kushida into Legado Del Fantasma before rolling him up for the three-count.

Results: Jordan Devlin defeated Kushida via pinfall on NXT.

Grade: A

Kushida took his frustration out on Legado Del Fantasma while Santos Escobar made his way inside the ring. Both NXT Cruiserweight Champions got in each other's faces, but before anything could happen they were interrupted by Shawn Michaels.

Shawn Michaels makes the Cruiserweight title bout at Stand & Deliver a Ladder Match

The Heartbreak Kid pulled a ladder out of the ring, sliding it in and walking away. It looks like, much like HBK's Intercontinental Title Unification Match against Razor Ramon, Escobar vs Devlin at TakeOver: Stand & Deliver will also be a Ladder Match. That's going to be phenomenal, and could be a show stealer.

Shawn Michaels walked into Adam Cole, who was making his way to the ring to confront Kyle O'Reilly.
