00:00In professional wrestling, like I said, she's an Olympic gold medalist.
00:03You cannot sleep on her background, but this is pro wrestling and
00:07she's in there with the TNA knockout world champion, okay?
00:12I gotta ask her this book, we heard from Kalani Jordan earlier.
00:16Wow, that was beautiful.
00:17Do you agree with Kalani as she was questioning the WWE Universe?
00:22Look, you're not gonna make it to the top thinking about what the WWE Universe is
00:27thinking, because they're always thinking about what have you done for me lately.
00:30The optimal word is me.
00:32It's not about you, it's about my career, it's about my legacy.
00:36And that's what Kalani Jordan right now is thinking about.
00:39I agree with her, 100%.
00:41We'll see if she can back up her words in this matchup right now.
00:44Gold medalist certainly wants to put more gold around her waist soon.
00:48Title not on the line, but an upset.
00:50You could make the case for Steele and a future knockout championship opportunity.
00:55It will not be a fluke tonight if Tyron May Steele won this match.
00:59I can say that, I can honestly say that.
01:02And look, Steele spoke the truth earlier about the current knockouts champion.
01:06Jordan did cheat to win.
01:07She didn't cut down the WWE Universe.
01:09What are you talking about?
01:09What are you talking about cheating?
01:11It's hard to argue, Booker.
01:12Something has gotten into Kalani as she's blatantly holding the bottom rope.
01:16How many times have you heard me say it, huh?
01:18If you ain't cheating, if you ain't cheating, you ain't trying.
01:21That's what this business is all about, getting an advantage, an edge.
01:24Yes, man.
01:25Rolling right through, another near fall.
01:27And you can talk all the time about the athletes, and we do, that have arrived here
01:33in NXT, have arrived here at the Performance Center.
01:36Some have succeeded, some have turned heads.
01:38Kalani was the one who was the poster child for that narrative.
01:42And it just irks somebody and some people to hear her speak the way she did tonight.
01:47As a submission applied, right now bending the body of Kalani.
01:52Still let go of that, maybe a little too soon, though.
01:54Maybe just a little bit, I mean, but you talk about Kalani Jordan being the poster child.
01:58Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, wait a minute, wait a minute.
02:01Another near fall, right, again, and whoof.
02:04I mean, you got Tiffany Stratton, you got Obafemi.
02:06And let's just say this, let's just say this.
02:07Man.
02:07The NIL program is definitely working.
02:10Let's just say that.
02:11You got Tank Ledger as well, who's in the first class from Northwestern, a former NXT Tag Team Champion
02:16here on this brand, and Kalani Jordan right now showing that aggressive nature.
02:22And I hate to even ask this, because I know the answer.
02:24Has the knockout's title gone to Jordan's head?
02:28We saw the TNA title and what it did to Trick Williams.
02:30Talking about less than three years in this business, Kalani Jordan has a world championship under her belt.
02:36Let me tell you something.
02:37That's what it's all about, Vic.
02:39I've said this once, I've said it a thousand times.
02:41It's not about anything other than going out there and making history in this business.
02:46And that's what Kalani is doing right now.
02:48Yes.
02:50And still doing her best to escape that moment.
02:55Great thought process though right there by Kalani Jordan.
02:58We would have had to have the medical team come back out here.
03:00Last I heard, medical was still checking on Ricky Saints after what happened in that attack,
03:05the fight that broke out.
03:07And everything next week is we get a cover by Kalani in the near fall.
03:10Everything we saw earlier between Saints and Williams will be all legal next week
03:15live here on NXT because it is a last man standing match for the NXT Championship.
03:20Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide.
03:22It's about going out there and testing your medal and see exactly how good you are.
03:25Hey, my thing is this.
03:26Trick Williams, he's ready to prove how good he really is.
03:30Trick is looking to make NXT history, man.
03:34Three times, three times, three times NXT Champion.
03:38Well, he certainly would next week if he is victorious.
03:40But right here, Steele trying to turn things around.
03:43Just got caught though by Kalani Jordan.
03:45And the Knockouts Champion has been in a bad mood since she arrived at the
03:49Performance Center here earlier today.
03:52And obviously bothered by the locker room who kicked her out of the locker room.
03:56You know what?
03:56Steele's part of that locker room.
03:58Steele has a say in what's going on.
04:00Well, if she's not part of the solution, she's part of the problem.
04:03And that's the way Kalani Jordan sees it.
04:06Yes.
04:07Look at the strength, Steele, the gold medalist, as we've talked about really right now.
04:12Going toe to toe with what I would call her biggest test to date here in NXT.
04:17No doubt, no doubt, but time may steal.
04:19I mean, the season winner of LFG, last season winner of LFG right now,
04:24she's doing a hell of a job.
04:25Whoa.
04:26She's doing a hell of a job, big.
04:28Almost like a reverse angle slam, floating right over into the cover.
04:31Deep hook of the leg, and the Knockouts Champion able to kick out.
04:36Some innovative offense from Tyre May Steele.
04:40Right now, you see Kalani Jordan, you gotta wonder what's going through her mind.
04:43She was not coming here tonight, ready to compete.
04:45She wanted to speak her truth to the NXT Universe.
04:49Stepping over the competition, looking for that-
04:52Yes.
04:54Split-legged moonsault, ended the cover- Got it, got it.
04:57She proves she is indeed the standout.
05:00Here is her winner, Kalani Jordan.
05:06Yes, man, Kalani Jordan, doing what champions do, man.
05:11What'd you say, she wasn't ready for it?
05:13Look here, when you champion, you stay ready, so you ain't got to get ready.
05:18Check out this big difference.
05:20Oh, yeah, Chase, my homie.
05:22RVD, you gotta love it, man.
05:25And again, she certainly proved she is one of a kind and on top of the TNA Knockouts Division.
05:33Shout out to my homie.
