00:00Three.
00:05And her opponent from Toronto, Ontario, Canada,
00:10Ariana Grace!
00:14There you see Grace coming to the ring with Stax
00:17and it was TNA International Champion Steven Macklin
00:20who is watching this matchup closely,
00:22wants to make Stax a forgotten son of TNA Director of Authority,
00:26Santino Marella at TNA Final Resolution.
00:28You can see what he posted on social media.
00:31I wonder if Stax is thinking about that matchup
00:34and truly focused on what's going on here at hand
00:37with Ariana Grace tonight.
00:39NXT on The CW brought to you by Jackson.
00:48You can't even argue with me.
00:49Ariana Grace was flat out rude earlier today to Pia Hale.
00:53I have never found myself in an inarguable situation, Joseph.
00:56Alright, the fact is Ariana Grace and Stax were enjoying themselves.
01:00They were laughing.
01:01It was Tia Hale who took exception to the fact
01:03that that couple was having a great time.
01:05That's not rude on Ariana's part.
01:07Their expense making fun of them?
01:09I mean, that was rude.
01:10They weren't saying it to them.
01:11They were saying it about them.
01:12Totally different scenario.
01:13I'm not going to win this argument.
01:14I'm going to go back to Stax for a second as Grace in control.
01:17How worried should Stax be of someone like Steve Macklin
01:19who you know very well?
01:20I've known Macklin a long time.
01:22He's a very, very dangerous individual.
01:24Borderline unhinged at times.
01:26I think Stax knows he's in for a fight.
01:28But I personally think Stax has what it takes to knock off Macklin.
01:31Well, as we focus in on the evening, we of course talk about Saturday,
01:35San Antonio deadline.
01:37You take a look at these two as Steph.
01:39What the hell is Fia Hale doing?
01:42No, I was wondering what Stax was doing.
01:44Stax interfering over the door.
01:46Look at that chop right to the throat.
01:48And I was getting ready to ask you, who needs this win more?
01:51I believe Ariana Grace needs every win the most so she can show the world what
01:55some of us already know, that she is the future of WWE.
01:59She's got style, she's got grace, she's incredibly friendly to be around.
02:03I think the world needs more Ariana Grace.
02:05Fia would love to pick up a win ahead of her WWE main event match.
02:08I would love Fia to get on Xanax.
02:10That doesn't mean it's gonna happen.
02:11What is your issue with Fia Hale?
02:13She doesn't have an off switch.
02:14Gives me anxiety watching her.
02:16Well, what about this action by Ariana Grace screaming?
02:19Speaking of which, this matchup just made official.
02:21Six woman tag team match still to come.
02:23Looking for another neck breaker countered.
02:24Backslide by Hale.
02:25Uh-oh.
02:26Shoulders down.
02:27And a near fall.
02:28What is someone like general manager Nick Aldis who get another cover,
02:31another count, another kick out?
02:32Looking for when he watches two aspiring superstars compete.
02:37Star power, first and foremost.
02:39Okay.
02:40That is arguably the most important asset an aspiring WWE superstar.
02:43Whoa.
02:44Ariana Grace has it in spades.
02:46Who connects with the audience?
02:48Who makes the audience feel warm and fuzzy inside?
02:50Well, speaking of connecting, Fia just connected with Ariana Grace on the outside.
02:55And you got to think to yourself that the roster of men and women have a chip on
02:58their shoulder after not being selected by John Cena to head to the Iron Survivor Challenge.
03:03You can look at it one of two ways.
03:04Boom.
03:05You can compete with a chip on your shoulder or you can use it as, uh-oh.
03:08Big exploder suplex motivation to step up your game.
03:12Big kick under the jaw, thought about cover and said did not.
03:15That's something right there.
03:16Maybe that's why John Cena didn't choose Fia.
03:18Stacks.
03:19You had an opportunity to make a cover and you didn't go for it.
03:23And there's Joe Hensley.
03:24No, no, no.
03:25Looking for a standing ovation.
03:29But back in the ring, this match continuing.
03:31Grace from behind, rolling up, shoulders down.
03:34And again, another kick out by Fia Hale coming back in.
03:37Grace got caught.
03:38Uh-oh, uh-oh.
03:39Kimura, Kimura, and a tap.
03:41Come on, Grace, give me a hell yeah.
03:44Here it comes.
03:49Fia Hale.
03:51I will never give you a hail yeah, even if there's a fire.
03:54I wonder if Grace is second guessing calling out someone like Joe Hendry for
03:58his Gold Rush pick, Athea Hale, who is victorious here tonight.
04:03Big win for Hale on the final NXT before Saturday's deadline.
