During the show, Dunne was seen seated in a room backstage. Dunne talked about how he has been wrestling for eighteen years and sees grown men who can not handle not being able to get it done. Dunne stated that the first time he went to someone for advice, he got a horrible nickname. This led to footage of Dunne as “Butch” being shown. Dunne then stated that he was put in front of the Sheamus show and talked about how he is no longer with the Brawling Brutes. Dunne then stated that Tyler Bate is resting at home, which led to footage shown of Bate recovering from his torn pec injury. Bate then turned his attention towards Trick and stated “Trick, you can’t figure it out.” Dunne talked about being robbed on a bus and no one came to his help. Dunne stated that he knew he had to do it on his own and he will figure it out. Dunne stated “Trick, you say you are the face of NXT” and brought up his victories over Ilja Dragunov and Carmelo Hayes. Dunne stated that you should be able to know what to do.

During the show, Hendry was seen holding a guitar and seated in the ring. Hendry welcomes everyone to his first ever Joe Hendry Concert in WWE and stated he knew hew had to create something special for this crowd. Hendry stated that this would be a song that almost everyone will love.

Hendry started to sing and first talked about making things better for everyone in NXT and Booker T being the President of his fan club. Hendry then turned his attention towards Gallus and proceeded to ridicule the group and saying that Joe Coffey is the son of Dutch Mantel and Gallus got deported for having awful facial hair.

After he was done with his song, Hendry stated that it was time for an encore. Before anything else could happen, Gallus interrupted and made their way out to the ring. Joe Coffey stated that there will be no encore and called Hendry a flash in the pan and a one trick pony. Coffey stated that if he hears that song one more time, someone is getting dead. After some more words by Coffey, Hendry attacked Gallus only for Gallus to quickly regain the advantage due to their numbers. Wolfgang and Mark Coffey held up Hendry as Joe grabbed a guitar and whacked Hendry in the back laying him out.
