WWE NXT Results: Jaida Parker vs. Michin - Street Fight match

Walker and Bate kicked off the match, and Dunne was tagged in early before going for the small joints in Tank's arm. Dunne stomped on Tank's fingers before Hank came back and cleared the ring with lariats.

Brinley Reece sent Dame outside early on, and the two fought on the apron before heading back into the ring, where Dame sent her into the corner. A distraction from Tatum Paxley, who came out of nowhere, allowed Reece to get a near fall off a roll-up.

Dame came back with a big suplex and got the win before Paxley stepped into the ring, causing Izzi to make a hasty retreat.

Chase U was in the classroom, and Duke Hudson admitted they hadn't beaten The O.C. clean. Duke grabbed the envelope from last week and showed Andre and the class the picture. Ridge apologized for helping Duke and Andre win the match.

Andre said everyone makes mistakes but told Ridge to stay back for the match tonight.

Lola Vice was out next and called out Roxanne Perez, who arrived with two security guards.

Vice said that the champ was scared of her, and Perez replied that she was trying to ensure the former MMA star didn't try anything funny before Heatwave.

The two argued about who was more capable in the ring before Vice said that her mother took her black belt test while pregnant with her.

The 25-year-old cried and added that she was training for the Olympics when she was 18 but had to start her career in MMA to provide for her family when her mom got sick.

Roxanne admitted that Vice had a tough upbringing but said that she wouldn't be able to beat her on Sunday regardless. Lola retorted that she would go on to be the greatest crossover talent from MMA to WWE and become the first Cuban-American NXT Women's Champion.

Roxanne's security stepped in to prevent a brawl, and Vice knocked one of them out with a fist before walking out.

Damon Kemp showed up with some brass knuckles to assist the No Quarter Catch Crew in tonight's match, but Charlie Dempsey was not happy with the suggestion and walked off with Heights and Borne.

WWE NXT Results: Oro Mensah vs. Myles Borne

Borne got a waist lock in early on and traded holds with Mensah before taking him down to the mat with an arm wringer. Oro came back with some kicks and a big clothesline before getting a near fall.

Myles got the advantage off a big dropkick before Kemp yelled at him from the corner and offered him the brass knuckles from earlier. Myles was annoyed and refused to use the weapon before Oro used the distraction to get a big kick in the corner and pick up the win.

Results: Oro Mensah def. Myles Borne

Grade: B

Backstage on NXT, Gallus started a big brawl with Tyriek Igwe and Tyson Dupont and took them out.

Malik Blade and Edris Enofe parted ways with Brinley Reece due to their recent string of bad luck before The O.C. showed up and called out OTM, challenging them to a future match.

WWE NXT Results: Wendy Choo vs. Carlee Bright

Choo no-sold the early offense and took Bright down before locking in a side headlock on the mat. Bright tried for a roll-up counter, but Choo broke out and got a kick before smashing her face on the mat.

Wendy hit a knee to the back of her head before stomping on it and getting a heel kick to the spine. Choo beat Bright back down onto the mat before setting her up in the Tree of Woe and hitting a big double dropkick for a near fall.

Bright came back with a clothesline and a cartwheel kick in the corner, but her standing shooting star was met with knees from Choo. Choo got a takedown and a headlock before Bright tapped out.

We learned from HBK that Brooks Jensen, who interfered with the main event last week, was on a sabbatical due to spiraling into alcoholism after splitting up with his tag partner, Josh Briggs.

Shawn Michaels said that he was let go after refusing to cooperate but decided to give him a second chance. He asked Brooks to meet him next week on NXT.

WWE NXT Results: Jazmyn Nyx vs. Karmen Petrovic

Petrovic was in control early on, but Nyx came back with a neckbreaker before locking in a stretch muffler on the mat. Fallon Henley watched from backstage as Petrovic turned it into a pin and broke the hold.

Karmen got some big kicks and took Nyx down before Jacy interfered and got her hand stomped on. The distraction allowed Nyx to get a Pele Kick from behind and pick up the win.

Result: Jazmyn Nyx def. Karmen Petrovic

Backstage on NXT, Petrovic approached Ava to ask for a tag match against Jacy and Jazmyn. Ava told her that someone had already approached her for the match, and it wasn't Karmen's mentor Natalya but fellow Canadian Arianna Grace.

Trick Williams, Ethan Page, Shawn Spears, and Je'Von Evans were out for the NXT Heatwave contract signing.

Williams said he was at the top of his game and heading into Toronto hoping to defend the NXT Title. Page noted that Trick may be impressive but stood no change in a Fatal-Four Way.

Page added that he wouldn't even have to pin the champ for the win before Shawn Spears got on the mic and made fun of Je'Von since it was the first PLE of his career.

Evans said that he was nervous about his first PLE but was getting sick of everyone using his age against him.

The challengers signed the contract individually, and Trick said that he knew all three of them were capable competition, but none could beat the champ.

All four men started trash-talking, and a brawl broke out. Williams and Evans put Page and Spears through the two tables as NXT went off the air.
