Asuka and Bayley contract signing
The show kicks off with a contract signing segment between Bayley and NXT Women’s Champion Asuka. William Regal is in the ring at the beginning of the segment to introduce the signees and to make sure that order was maintained. Bayley came out to the usual warm reception that she is used to. Bayley came out looking more determined than we’ve ever seen her. She had a steely resilience behind her smile. She was followed out by the still undefeated NXT Women’s Champion Asuka.
Bayley started with a promo saying how she’s beaten every top woman in NXT’s history from Sasha Banks, Charlotte, and Paige to Nia Jax. She said that even after those wins she was seen as an underdog, till a year ago at Brooklyn when she defeated Sasha Banks to achieve her dream of winning her first NXT Women’s Championship. However, she says that her dream turned into a nightmare in Dallas when Asuka beat her for the Championship. Bayley said that she wasn’t prepared, in hindsight, but now she is. She also said that she’ll beat Asuka at Brooklyn on August 20th to reclaim her championship.
Asuka just replied that Bayley didn’t have it and she extends her hand as a gesture of respect. Bayley refused to shake Asuka’s hand and told her to take her hand and sign the contract for the match.
Following the signing of the contract, Bayley slapped Asuka’s hand away and left the ring. She then turned around and gave Asuka a stare before running back into the ring and going nose to nose with Asuka. A determined Bayley showed us a new fire that we haven’t seen from her before. Will she have what it takes to beat the Empress of Tomorrow at NXT TakeOver: Back 2 Brooklyn?
