After the bell, Skylar Raye jumps Kali Armstrong until referees pull them apart.
Grayson Waller is shown running on a treadmill before Sean Legacy tells Dorian Van Dux that Robert Stone has a major announcement coming for NXT’s tag team division. Van Dux says they intend to be involved, prompting BirthRight to stake its claim to the NXT Tag Team Championship. Lexis King tells them to step aside, saying NXT’s top spot is BirthRight’s to claim, but Van Dux says they aren’t backing down.
DarkState head to the ring for the next match, followed by Legacy and Van Dux.

Post-match, BirthRight hits the ring to cut a promo, with Connors taking credit for taking out Zilla Fatu and Stacks putting the locker room on notice. They jump Legacy and Van Dux until Fatu makes the save, closing out the segment with a Triple Z on Dempsey.

They hug before Borne turns on Heights, hitting Borne Again and driving him through the ringside barricade screen. Back in the ring, Borne traps Heights’ ankle in a chair and stomps on the chair.
