Stand and Deliver is in the record books and now a new era dawns for NXT.


Alicia Taylor introduces the new NXT Women’s Champion, Roxanne Perez.

The crowd cheers: You deserve it!

She tells them to shut up. She “deserved it” over a year ago.

The crowd chants: Shut the hell up!

Roxanne: I will keep talking because I am the champion!

Roxanne dares anyone to challenge her. She says if she is drafted to Raw or Smackdown she will take the belt with her.

Lyra Valkyria interrupts. The fans chant: You tapped out!

It seems like this whole Roxanne heel switch ain’t working very well.

Lyra: You are too good for NXT now? You can go to Raw and Smackdown but that championship stays here with me! She challenges Roxanne to a title match tonight.

Tatum Paxley comes out. She will challenge Roxanne if Lyra isn’t cleared to go.

Lyra wants to take on Perez. The friends argue. Tatum throws Lyra into a steel post hurting her arm even more. Security removes Tatum.

We head to Chase U.  Kelani Jordan and Fallon Henley are presented with honorary degrees from Chase University. Jacey Jayne ruins the special moment. She came to ask the professor if he will reveal why Chase U was in such trouble to begin with and that was all Thea Hail’s fault. Jayne says it because Chase bet on Hail’s match at the Great American Bash against Tiffany Stratton but he threw the towel in because he cared more about Hail than Chase U.

“Isn’t it ironic that all this time YOU are the problem,” says Jayne to Hail. Chase gets down on one knee to apologize To Hail. An upset Hail scampers out of the classroom.
