00:00If Bo Dallas wins this match,
00:03he will receive a future NXT Championship match.
00:07If Bo Dallas loses, he must leave NXT.
00:27Introducing first from Brooksville,
00:29Florida weighing 230 pounds,
00:32Bo Dallas!
00:35Oh guys, last week, JBL set this match for Bo Dallas
00:39after he begged for one more shot at the NXT title.
00:44Oh, Dallas has that chance if he wins tonight,
00:47he gets the opportunity.
00:48If he doesn't, goodbye Bo.
00:50And I don't understand these people.
00:51I mean, I love Bo Dallas.
00:52He comes out here with such a positive attitude,
00:54such a positive energy.
00:55Reminds me of Tim Tebow.
00:56How can you not root for Tim Tebow?
00:58How can you not root for Bo Dallas?
00:59Nobody likes Tim Tebow.
01:00Tim Tebow is the most hated player to once play in the NFL.
01:04Renee, Renee, I'm gonna ask you again.
01:06You don't like Tim Tebow?
01:07I do not like Tim Tebow a little bit.
01:09He's a ridiculous person.
01:10Well, I love Bo Dallas, and that's all that matters.
01:13Bo Dallas is like a walking self-help book.
01:15My believers, I've always taught you to never give up and to follow your dreams.
01:30And tonight we get to do both of those together.
01:34NXT was built on bo-leaving.
01:40And
01:44as longest reigning NXT champion in history,
01:47I humbly accept the title, Mr. NXT.
01:55What?
01:57When I look into the audience,
02:01I don't see fans, I see a family.
02:07And
02:11I will never give up on you.
02:14And I promise from the bottom of my heart,
02:19I will never leave you.
02:24Don't stop believing.
02:29How can you not respect that man?
02:33What are you talking?
02:34First of all, you can't give yourself the name Mr. NXT.
02:37Shawn Michaels didn't call himself Mr. WrestleMania.
02:38He was the longest reigning NXT champion of all time.
02:41Of course he can.
02:42His opponent from Tampa, Florida, weighing 285 pounds, Big E.
02:58Here comes the strength.
03:01The what?
03:05I was trying to say it cool.
03:06The strength?
03:07I was trying to say it cool, but it was weird.
03:09He's got some strength.
03:10He's a strong man.
03:13Four Dallas faked JBL for this match.
03:17He actually seemed happy about the selection of Big E as his
03:21opponent tonight.
03:22It's because he looks at it as the fact that he's undefeated
03:25against Big E, but I think we all remember how that went down.
03:29I think he should be a little bit nervous right now.
03:31Well, he defeated Big E to become the NXT champion,
03:35then went on and carried it for almost 300 days.
03:38I think the man has a good radar on this thing and has every
03:42reason to feel confident about going against Big E tonight.
03:45Absolutely, but I mean, take a look at what Big E's been
03:47able to accomplish.
03:49He's a huge superstar.
03:52He traveled the world at this point, coming back to NXT.
03:57Oh, look at that.
03:59Bo's getting his game face on.
04:01The people remember.
04:02They remember five.
04:03They remember five.
04:05The man who wanted five counts, Big E.
04:08The man that got five counts on a nightly basis.
04:13Well, this is former NXT champ versus former NXT champ.
04:17As we said, Bo Dallas, the longest reigning champion in
04:19NXT history, held the title for 260 days.
04:22Battling the man that he beat for the title back on June 12th,
04:252013.
04:27Big E had held that title for 168 days after he had defeated
04:31Seth Rollins earlier in the year.
04:34Now, I am human here and I'm gonna feel bad for Bo Dallas if
04:38he has to leave town.
04:39It's gonna break his heart to not have this NXT championship
04:42opportunity.
04:43It means the world to him.
04:44And even though Big E has gone on, look at that, look at the impact he made here.
04:51People wanna see a fight.
04:53Even though he's gone on and become Intercontinental Champion in the WWE,
04:56travel the world down on that, when somebody beats you at a pivotal moment in your career,
04:59as he was beaten by Bo Dallas almost two years ago, to lose that title, you always
05:03remember that.
05:04You always remember that as an athlete.
05:05And tonight he gets the opportunity to get his hands right back on Bo Dallas.
05:12Look at the agility of Big E.
05:14Wow.
05:15The height that Big E is able to get.
05:17You know, I actually had an opportunity to talk to Big E not too long ago.
05:22The athleticism that he has being such a big man is so impressive.
05:29And this is a guy who has deadlifted 799 pounds and to be able to, uh, to leap up that high
05:35as we saw just a moment ago is nothing short of amazing.
05:39A lot of people are strong, but a lot of people are not strong and explosive.
05:42And the most important thing of those two in the WWE is being explosive.
05:46And that's what Big E trains for, explosiveness and athletic building.
05:51If I'm going from powerlifting and playing football at Iowa, that is, that has just developed
05:56his body to be able to pull off maneuvers that not all guys can do.
06:01Bo Dallas in a bad way right now.
06:04Staggering around outside the ring.
06:07Big E just taking the physicality up a notch.
06:13How do you think the NXT universe is going to react if Bo Dallas gets another NXT championship
06:20opportunity?
06:21They're going to, they're going to love it just like me.
06:24I think, I think if he gets kicked out of NXT, they're going to be, oh!
06:27Oh!
06:28That knee!
06:29Come on, Big E!
06:30How smart by Bo Dallas to roll back into the ring and right back out.
06:34And I think he actually suckered Big E out of the ring.
06:37Two!
06:38Three!
06:39From beginning!
06:40Four!
06:41That's enough!
06:42Dallas will dig to any depth to gain an edge.
06:43And a look at a bloop.
06:44This match has the potential to cover here.
06:59Shoulders down, a Big E will power out.
07:02But the potential to be your classic wits versus brawn battle.
07:05I'm talking to some of the other NXT superstars today.
07:08They all said cover here.
07:10And again, Big E able to kick out.
07:12The best chance that Bo Dallas has to win is to use his wits.
07:15Well, of course.
07:16Big E is the one with the wits here.
07:17Big E is a genius.
07:18He was almost a doctor.
07:19You know that?
07:20He was.
07:21But Bo Dallas is a genius inside the ring.
07:23He was the champion for 260 days.
07:25I bet you he wasn't a genius at 100 days.
07:27But at 200 to 260, your wrestling IQ goes up tremendously.
07:31I bet.
07:32But look at Big E.
07:34He's accomplished so much in WWE.
07:37Bo Dallas will have to leave NXT if he loses this match.
07:42Can he come away with a victory?
07:44We'll find out after this.
07:49Welcome back here to NXT.
07:51Big E taking on Bo Dallas to former NXT champions here tonight.
07:55Wow.
07:58Bo Dallas into the cover.
07:59Hook in the leg.
08:00And Big E stays alive.
08:02He looked close when Big E hit the mat.
08:04There was almost like a look of shock in his face.
08:06Like, I didn't know you could generate that much power, Bo.
08:09I will never leave you.
08:11I'll never leave you.
08:13It's being too much.
08:14Bo Dallas, if he loses tonight, has to leave NXT for good.
08:18If he wins, however, he will get a future NXT title opportunity.
08:22The stakes are huge for Bo Dallas tonight, Alex.
08:25These people don't even know what they want.
08:26They'd be happy for about ten minutes,
08:28and then on their drive home, they'd be missing Bo Dallas
08:30and everything he brings to NXT.
08:31I can't imagine this place without him.
08:33These people are gonna miss him like crazy.
08:42Oh!
08:43I am not losing this match.
08:56I am not losing this match.
09:01Big E ahead of steam.
09:24Oh!
09:29Look at the power of Big E!
09:31Big E wants Bo out of NXT.
09:355'11", 290 pounds of pure power.
09:41Wow!
09:42Here we go!
09:45Straps coming down.
09:47Flexibility plus speed equals power.
09:50You're about to see it.
09:55Big E lining up Dallas.
09:56Whoa!
09:57Going for the big ending.
09:59And oh!
10:00Oh!
10:01Bo Dallas with a chance to put Big E away!
10:04Thought he had that NXT championship opportunity there.
10:07That is a wrestling IQ counter right there.
10:09Not just trying to get out of the move and get away,
10:12but at the same time hooking Big E up for something
10:14and inverted DDT and dropping it.
10:16Now Bo Dallas is firmly in control.
10:18What is the best game plan going up against somebody
10:23Big E's size?
10:24I think just be smart.
10:25Take advantage of openings.
10:27Stick and move.
10:31The last opportunity here for Bo Dallas.
10:34It really does give a whole new meaning to Bo Weave.
10:39Whoa!
10:40What a throw!
10:41The supreme strength of Big E!
10:43Enough to put Dallas away!
10:45No!
10:46Just barely two and three quarters.
10:48Now the heart of the former champion.
10:50The heart of Bo Dallas.
10:52Renee, is he winning you over now?
10:54Look, I will waver back and forth.
10:57At one point, I was a Bo Leaver.
10:58I was on Bo's side through and through.
11:01But now, I don't know.
11:02Comes out here, he's got this whiny voice.
11:04Here comes Big E!
11:05Up, up, up, up.
11:06Oh!
11:07Oh!
11:08Oh!
11:09That was smart move.
11:13Dallas smells opportunity!
11:15Going for the double underhook DDT!
11:17Oh!
11:18He nailed it!
11:19Bo Dallas with a chance for a title shot and takeover!
11:22No!
11:23Not today!
11:24Big E kicked out!
11:25My goodness!
11:27No one kicks out of that DDT!
11:29You gotta be made of something else to be able to kick out of that DDT.
11:33And you can see it all over Bo's face right now.
11:36Now he doesn't know what to do.
11:38It don't seem like he had a plan up until right now.
11:41How much does he have to rely on the energy from the NXT universe?
11:44Wait, wait, wait.
11:45What's he doing?
11:46What's he doing?
11:47What's he doing?
11:48Does it look like he had something in his wrist tape?
11:50Wait, what is...
11:52It looks like Bo Dallas taking the turn by...
11:54Oh, come on!
11:55We saw this last year, Renee!
11:56Come on!
11:57Renee, this is how Bo Dallas won the title last year!
12:04Oh, I know!
12:05I'm very familiar...
12:06Oh!
12:07Oh!
12:08Oh!
12:09Big E again going for the big ending shades of that title matchup last year,
12:13but this time Big E able to nail it!
12:15Can he send Bo Dallas away?
12:17Yes!
12:18Wow!
12:20Here is your winner, Big E!
12:25Goodbye!
12:26Bo Dallas!
12:27Bo's just gone now, he's gone!
12:28The human side of me is really feeling for Bo Dallas right now.
12:42Guys, it seemed like he had a game plan up until the point where he went to that buckle.
12:46Went to that buckle, thought it was a smart thing to do.
12:48The referee had his back turned, and then it backfired on him, and that was the advantage
12:53Big E needed.
12:54Bo Dallas, one year ago, able to outsmart Big E as Big E went for the big ending.
13:01I can't go!
13:08I can't go!
13:12This is my home!
13:14This is my home!
13:16This is my home!
13:17This is my home!
13:18This is my home!
13:19This is my home!
13:21My home!
13:22No!
13:23I can't!
13:24Don't leave me!
13:25I can't, don't leave me.
