In-Ring: Velveteen Dream, Adam Cole, Bobby Fish

Velveteen Dream makes his way to the ring. Dream says if you didn’t realize he has a little sparkle in his eyes. Dream has something special in his sights. Dream says you all know better than anybody that Dream waits for no man. If you really knew him, you would know that the sparkle in his eye is a sparkle of championship gold. More specifically the North American Championship. It is high time . . .

Dream is interrupted by Adam Cole and Bobby Fish… Cole tells Dream to pump the brakes. Everybody knows that 2019 will be the year of the Undisputed Era. They will capture all championship gold. Kyle and Roderick are getting ready for another title defense. Him and Bobby don’t have any gold to speak of. They don’t like arriving empty handed and they will have gold around their waists. You can continue to dream on.

Bobby says Dream is making a mistake getting the hopes of the crowd raised. You need to learn to live in reality because 2019 will continue to be our era. That is undisputed.

Dream tells Bobby he is ready to dispute that claim but only if it is okay with Adam.

Fish comes into the ring and Dream sends him over the top rope to the floor. Cole is sent to the floor as well and Dream escapes.

Video: Shayna Baszler, Bianca Belair

We have a video package for Shayna Baszler and BIanca Belair. Shayna says she has spent the year winning and defending the title. They cannot stand that she has the title because there is nothing that they can do about it. Belair says she is the strongest, toughest, and fastest. Shayna will learn that Belair is the best. Shayna had a great year being a two time champion and that means Shayna has lost. Guess who hasn’t lost. Belair says she will take the title from Shayna. Shayna says that she knows how Belair feels because she was there last year. Look what she did. People fear the champion and that is what it should.

Belair says if she has to take care of three people to get the title, she will do it. Shayna says it does not matter how strong you are or how fast you are, you need air to breathe. Belair says she has always thrived under pressure and it takes a lot of pressure to form a diamond and this diamond will shine the best.

Video: Tommaso Ciampa, Aleister Black

We are back with a look at the NXT Men’s Championship Match. Ciampa says that the title makes the man. Ever since he has put his hands around Goldie, the man makes the title. Why can’t anyone dethrone him? It is because he wants it more than anybody. It takes a different man to build his nest at the top of the mountain and call it home. Black says he was down in an abyss and he had to climb out of it. It made him very angry.

You showed that you are a liar and you are deceitful. You showed that you only care about yourself. In 2018, Ricochet says he showed his true colors when he won this title. He showed that he is the one and only. He showed that he is something that Johnny Gargano is not . . . a champion.
