New WWE Champion Breaks Silence: "I don't have any more tears to cry"

Angle Slam to Myles! Dion sent to the floor!! Hendry plants Myles with the Standing Ovation, and sends Leon Slater onto Dion on the floor!!

Hendry spins Myles around with the fireman's carry spinebuster!! But Dion drags him out of the ring, leading to a brawl up the ramp. Leon takes advantage...Swanton 450 to Myles Borne!!

Leon Slater defeats Myles Borne via pinfall!

Slater drags himself up for the Swanton 450. Dion rolls away to stop the 450, but Slater still hits the Swanton!! As he goes for the Swanton 450, Myles dropkicks him to the floor. Hendry suplexes Myles and takes him down with a series of clotheslines! Fallaway slam sends Myles across the ring, and Dion gets sent overhead as well!!

The fans believe!!

Leon pelts Dion with kicks, but is planted with a big slam by Myles. Dion responds with a spinebuster to Myles and eats a German suplex from Hendry. Leon...picks Hendry up for the deep six!!

Back from the break, Leon has Myles in the drop zone for the Swanton 450! As he gets ready, Dion yanks his leg, crotching him. As Dion goes for a Blackout off the top, Myles cuts him off with a punch...almost to the crotch.

Joe Hendry joins in on the tower of doom, but Leon flips overhead and powerbombs them all down!! Joe Hendry just barely kicks out, as do Myles and Dion.

A high-angle crossbody nearly gives Slater the win, but Dion just barely kicks out.

Hendry spikes Leon with a DDT, but can't secure more than a one-count. Dion rolls in and is almost pinned by Hendry.

Leon rocks Dion with the Shelton Benjamin dragon whip and sends Hendry to the floor for an incredible running 450 Splash off the apron!

Myles Borne and Dion Lennox are the early leaders. Joe Hendry and Leon Slater get tossed to the floor while Borne hits a picture-perfect Randy Orton-esque snap powerslam on Dion. Slater gets back in, but Hendry takes him and Myles out with a pair of clotheslines.

Hendry nearly sends Leon over the ropes with a short POUUUUUUUNCEE!!

"I believe in Joe Hendry!! Oh Joe Hendry!! Uh he's Joe Hendryyyy!" Close enough, Booker T.

Booker T now says he loves Joe Hendry after a year of preferring Trick Williams over him. Now he's trying to sing Hendry's song and...props for trying. C for effort.

Backstage, Shiloh Hill and Skylar Raye are met by Stacks and Arianna Grace, setting up something next week, possibly? The segment bled into DarkState, preparing for the main event.

Dion Lennox will face Joe Hendry, Leon Slater, and Myles Borne for a shot at Oba Femi at New Year's Evil.

KENDAL GREY MAKES THE SPEED CHAMPION TAP

Backstage, Thea Hail is HYPER after her huge victory. She can't believe what's going on. Fallon is met by Jordynne Grace, who admits that she was right in her advice last week.

Blake Monroe shows up in tears, demanding her title back. Grace defends Thea, forcing Blake to step away for now. Thea glomps onto Jordynne, hugging her tight while Jordynne seems...not too pleased.

Wren Sinclair finally fights out of the corner to get to Kendal. The Evolve Champion hits a snap slam on Fallon, but it's broken up by Lainey. Wren plants Lainey with a spinning back suplex, only to eat a superkick from Fallon.

Jacy distracts Kendal, forcing her to break the hold and respond. Wren takes out Jacy and Lainey with a dive, and Kendal forces Fallon to tap out to the cross armbreaker!!

WrenQCC defeat Fatal Influence via submission.

Fatal Influence aims to keep the heat on the WrenQCC

Je'Von Evans will get his moment...at some point

Jacy Jayne distracts Wren long enough for Fallon to hit her on the floor with the turnbuckle tiger feint kick as we cut to break. Fatal Influence struggled a bit early, but have controlled most the match.

Fatal Influence blindsides their opponents before the bell rings and separates Kendal from her corner. Lainey tries to knock Wren back off the apron, but she ducks as Kendal fires up. Kendal takes a shot to the nose and holds it while she kicks the crud out of Reid.

It's time for the next match. Fatal Influence's Fallon Henley and Lainey Reid vs the WrenQCC's Wren Sinclair and Evolve Women's Champion (And Jacy Jayne's #1 contender) Kendal Grey!

Backstage, Ethan Page is in Ava's office, as is ZaRuca. Page says that he's been attacked by a lizard, Tony D, and now there's a Moose loose in the parking lot! Chelsea Green comes in, also worried about the Moose in the parking lot.

In two weeks, Ava confirms that Ethan will defend against Moose. However, Chelsea Green will defend the US Title next week against Sol Ruca since she defeated Bayley.

Je'Von Evans attacks Ricky Saints...from the front! No sneak attacks here! But security pulls Je'Von away and...lets Ricky attack him. Ricky sets up a Roshambo on the floor and security pleads with him not to do it. He puts Je'Von through the table.

I guess it makes sense if they were Ricky's private detail, but then why would they care about him putting Je'Von through the table?

Ricky Saints says that Je'Von Evans will reach the next level...when Ricky says so! The Absolute is the REAL Superstar, the REAL Main Eventer, and there's nobody backstage who can step to him!

"I'm the right guy! Right here, and right now!!"

It's time for the Ricky Saints town hall! We know what he did, but why?

We're told that we're doing a new Men's Speed Tournament because...oh look, Men's Speed Champion Jasper Troy is actually here!! Jasper promises that, no matter who wins, they'll be destroyed.

HONK HONK!! Hank and Tank set up for the finish, but Bronco saves his partner! As they set up their finish, Tank dives onto Bronco, and Hank rolls up Price for the win!!

Hank & Tank defeat OTM via pinfall.

OTM picks Tank up for a swinging double samoan drop!! Tank is then dragged to the table, but he manages to get to the apron!! Tank then takes OTM out with a big bowling ball dive and throws Price back in! SWANTON BOMB!!

Tank traps Bronco with a kimura...but it's broken up when Price chokeslams Hank on top of him!!

Honestly, folks? This is a pretty fun tag match.

Back from the break, Tank dives onto Bronco Nima to take him out on the floor. Lucien Price brings Hank down with a superplex, leaving a fresher Tank against a more worn-down Bronco to tag in.

Hank and Tank hit the double ten punches in opposite corners, allowing OTM to counter with the AOP Super Collider as we cut to break!!

Tank hits a double mule kick to the jaw of Lucien Price, finally getting Hank in the match. As Hank and Tank begin to take over, we see a Chevy pulling up in the parking lot with several security guards near the vehicle.

Booker T says he doesn't know who it is because nobody he knows drives a Chevy.

Tank is getting dominated early on. Bronco and Lucien of OTM hit a kitchen sink knee/leaping stomp combination. This is a MAULING!!

Moose has called out the NXT Men's North American Champion...and the match is official!!

Next up is OTM vs the returning Hank & Tank!

Je'Von Evans is still in the parking lot when Leon Slater tries to bring him inside. He wants Je'Von in his corner for the match tonight, and says that Ricky might not even show up tonight.

I have a sneaking suspicion Ricky shows up during that match...

Moose confirms that it's official!! Ava and Santino Marella have both confirmed it!! Moose challenges Ethan Page in two weeks!!

Moose says that somebody is coming for Stacks... but it's not him, because he wants the NXT Men's North American Title!!!

Stacks and Arianna Grace roll in to brag and demand a shot at the AAA Mixed Tag Titles...when MOOSE shows up!!

Ethan Page is out next. He's appalled that the WWE Universe and champions were upset about John Cena's retirement... and not that Page was attacked last week by Tony D'Angelo!!

We're shown the slow-mo recap of what happened. Blake Monroe kicked out...at 3.1. Thea is the new champion!

We got a backstage short of The Culling, preparing to end Tatum Paxley once and for all. I think. Honestly, I was still kind of shocked by the last match.

It looked like...Blake was supposed to roll Thea over for the pin? Or that she was supposed to kick out. Either way...that didn't seem genuine. They originally played Blake's music before swapping to Thea's.

Regardless of how we got here, Thea Hail is your new NXT Women's NA Champion!!

Thea Hail breaks out of several submission attempts and stuns the champion with a headbutt. She fires up with a series of clotheslines and hits a World's Strongest Slam. She hits a springboard senton and...1-2-3????

Thea Hail defeats Blake Monroe via pinfall.
