00:00The following contest scheduled for one fall.
00:06One fall.
00:08It's for the NXT Championship.
00:15Introducing the challenger from Greensboro, North Carolina.
00:20Weighing in at 195 pounds, Javon Evans.
00:30And his opponents, from Lagos, Nigeria.
00:38Weighing in at 310 pounds.
00:43He is the NXT Champion, Oba Femi.
00:54Something that just came to me, Book, is Evans teams up with Leon Slater this
00:58weekend at Saturday night's main event to face Dragon Lee, AJ Styles.
01:03But if Evans wins, does he go on to face the American Nightmare?
01:07Is it gonna be Javon Evans versus Cody Rhodes?
01:11After everything that laid out in San Antonio, is he gonna have to compete twice?
01:15I assume that's something Nick Aldis and Ava are gonna have to discuss tomorrow.
01:19Look, I'm not off into hypotheticals or anything like that.
01:21Tonight, right now, Javon Evans has a chance to go out and
01:25prove that he can run with the big dog.
01:27That he can prove that he can become NXT Champion here tonight in front of all these
01:31people.
01:32Let's see if he can do it.
01:33Is Evans thinking clearly?
01:35He wanted the title opportunity tonight opposed to New Year's Evil.
01:38Is he thinking with a clear mind?
01:39I don't think so, I really don't.
01:40I mean, if it was me, I mean, I definitely would have waited because
01:43with Oba Femi, you gotta prepare properly.
01:45I'm talking about plan A, plan B, perhaps plan C.
01:49Yes.
01:51Big kick, and right now, Javon Evans trying to strike fast.
01:54Look at that cutter guy, overpowered.
01:57And this is what Oba Femi has done time and time again.
02:00Able to get out of the way though, Javon Evans using this.
02:02He's coming in, big knee out of the jaw.
02:03This could be it, cover, count.
02:05Man, that was close.
02:10Take another look.
02:11Just how close was it?
02:12Big knee right under the jaw.
02:14Three, two, two.
02:15Man.
02:16You could have slid a piece of paper underneath that hand.
02:19Javon Evans though, as you can hear, the NXT Universe rallying 0-9-1 in title matches.
02:24His chips were pushed into the middle.
02:26He said tonight he is locked in.
02:28He's done hearing about maybe one day being the future.
02:31He said the future is now.
02:33Yeah, I'm gonna tell you right now, you don't wanna listen to the press cutters or anything.
02:36You definitely wanna listen to the fans and let them get you into a situation like this
02:41with Oba Femi.
02:42This guy can hurt you, dawg.
02:43He's dangerous.
02:45You can say that again.
02:45We know Bourne, Hendry, Lennox, Slater all watching closely.
02:48Those four men compete next week to determine the number one contender to this title at New Year's
02:53Evo as Javon flying through the air one more time.
02:56Right between the eyes, into the cover, hook of the leg, and another near fall.
03:00Javon's doing something smart.
03:01Right now it's time to look at tonight's NXT recap presented.
03:06As you see this big kick right between the eyes, into the cover.
03:10And it's time to look at tonight's NXT recap presented by Progressive.
03:13Let's play Devil's Advocate then, Bourne.
03:15Is this Evan's best shot to Top of the Ruin?
03:17You know, that's a hard question right there.
03:20But I'm gonna tell you right now, Javon is doing the right thing.
03:22He's trying to land big shots on Oba, trying to separate him from his senses.
03:27But right now, Oba's moving downhill, and he's moving down hard, dawg.
03:32Here we go, here we go.
03:34Ricky Sainz tried to question Evan's thought process, but look, here we are.
03:39Look at that.
03:40Making him think about it.
03:41Look at about one hand.
03:44You ain't kidding.
03:45Not even breaking a sweat, but looking to break the back of Javon Evans.
03:50And I wanna say it again, Oba did not arrive today thinking he would be defending the title.
03:54He just won on Saturday.
03:55Evans is right now riding away from momentum.
03:58He's playing a hot hand.
03:59I think that's something else we can agree right now.
04:01But Oba Femi, as ruthless as he is, is in control of this match just like that.
04:09I don't think Oba Femi coming into this night blind or anything like that.
04:12He said he was gonna go out there, and he was gonna break Cody Rhodes.
04:15And he said he was gonna go out here and break this young man here, Javon Evans tonight.
04:20But before he said that, he said, let me prepare, let me prepare.
04:24That's what the rule is all about, man.
04:26You know Cody Rhodes is watching.
04:28You know Triple H is watching.
04:30This is a massive main event.
04:31This is a premium live event, main event, anywhere in the world, any month of the year,
04:37any week.
04:38Javon Evans trying to overcome Oba Femi.
04:42Oba continuing to show his dominance over Javon Evans.
04:45And look, Javon Evans has a lot of momentum we talked about.
04:48He lived up to the hype that John Cena gave him Saturday night in San Antonio.
04:52He became the Iron Survivor.
04:54I mean, he became the Iron Survivor, but hype is only gonna take me so far.
04:58I mean, every time you step in this ring, you take a little bit out of yourself.
05:03And right now, Trevon Evans, he's been working real hard over this last 365,
05:09trying to get to that point, scratching, and going, trying to become champion.
05:13Well, the year started with a broken jaw.
05:16The year could end with gold around his waist.
05:19And right now, looking to spring right into action and got caught and ripped down.
05:24He ain't driving.
05:26Got ripped right out of the air right there by Oba Femi.
05:29No brand, no water, just me looking to bounce on this young man.
05:35And looking to inflict more damage, looking to inflict more pain.
05:40But Javon, how does he do it?
05:43But he just got caught, he got muscled.
05:46And Oba Femi though, just got outsmarted, and the window's back open for Javon.
05:51Javon's gotta black out the pain, he's gotta use all the momentum,
05:54he's gotta use everything to his advantage, able to land on his feet.
05:56Baby, baby.
05:59Javon is down, Oba's up, who's looking out?
06:02NXT Champion.
06:03Oba Femi came here tonight after being on Monday Night Raw last night.
06:12Not expecting to defend his championship with Javon Evans,
06:15the Iron Survivor who does not want to wait to New Year's Evil.
06:18He said he wanted his opportunity here tonight.
06:20He's getting it, he might be broken by the end of it, cover and a kick out.
06:25And another layer to remember is SmackDown General Manager.
06:28Nick Aldis made it crystal clear that the winner over the weekend would not just be on
06:33NXT Champion, the winner would face Cody Rhodes at Saturday night's main event.
06:37Is Javon Evans gonna have to pull double duty Saturday?
06:40I mean, that's something that our general manager gonna have to figure out tomorrow.
06:43It's worth thinking about though right now as Cody Rhodes is watching.
06:46He went to social media to talk about, he's watching closely as Javon Evans' body
06:51just crumbles to the mat.
06:52Let me tell you right now, Javon Evans really wasn't thinking about this match as
06:56much as he should have been thinking about it before he got it to him.
06:59Let me tell you, if he was smart, if he had anybody's work,
07:02listen, he would have waited.
07:05You hear it, Obafemi, Obafemi just again mocking,
07:07ridiculing Javon Evans, who's trying to fight back.
07:10It just looks like there's no gas in the tank as the NXT universe trying to rally.
07:15The challenger had a big right.
07:17Don't want to underestimate this young kid, he may be 21 years old, but
07:21this kid has a plethora of talent and he's got a heart as big as Texas.
07:25He's not gonna quit.
07:26Obafemi a win tonight, he would tie Dominik Mysterio for the most championship match
07:31victories this year.
07:33And he's looking for, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
07:36Spilling to the outside, Javon Evans continuing to fight somehow, some way.
07:44And Obafemi.
07:45Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
07:47Put Javon Evans high up, Javon Evans able to get out.
07:50And this is that moment, you gotta fight, Javon.
07:53Remember what you're fighting for.
07:55The NXT universe rallying Javon, rallying the challenger.
08:02The Iron Survivor.
08:03Javon Evans with Obafemi.
08:09Two, three, four.
08:22Five.
08:24swings.
08:26Four.
08:28Five, eight, four.
08:31eurem.
08:32One, four, four, five.
08:38Five, six, seven, eight.
08:45Trying to get a headset, I think I'm finally back, referee at eight.
08:48And just breaking the count was Obafemi.
08:51Javon, ball splash into the back.
08:53Oba's down, Oba's hurt.
08:57Booker, you said earlier, boom shakalaka.
09:00Well, right now, Javon Evans, he's heating up, got him again.
09:05Get that bid, get that bid, get that bid, we gotta do that, wow.
09:10No, no, no, my word.
09:15That may have been the opportunity Javon was looking for, you okay?
09:23Yeah, I'm good.
09:24Javon Evans getting right back up, and we talked about Heat Wave.
09:28We talked about the main event is Stan and Deliver.
09:32This is awesome.
09:35This indeed is.
09:38But these are the past scars that have prepared Javon Evans for tonight.
09:44And over to the outside, Javon Evans.
09:46Here we go.
09:48And bouncy.
09:49Kid knew he's gonna be in a fight tonight, right now.
09:51He's bringing the fight to Obafemi, Victor.
09:53The ruler is down.
09:55Evans has to get Obafemi back in the ring.
09:57NXT Universe, everyone's standing right now.
10:00Javon Evans is primed, is perched, is not out.
10:06God damn, right to the sternum right there.
10:10That was a gnarly shot, Vic.
10:12And weathering the storm.
10:13Wait a minute, Quickness.
10:15Quickness on the speed right now.
10:17And Quickness.
10:18My God.
10:19He's back up.
10:19My God.
10:20He's back up.
10:22Hunter, he's gonna do it.
10:23He's gonna do it.
10:24He's gonna do it.
10:25He's gonna do it.
10:26My God, man.
10:26And Javon realizing it.
10:28Javon Evans right now senses that moment.
10:31Coming right.
10:32Just gets depleted.
10:34To retain his title tonight.
10:37And Javon's still got some fights.
10:39He's got a lot of hope.
10:40Let's reset the stage.
10:41The Iron Survivor came here tonight, called his shot.
10:44Doesn't wanna wait for Tuesday, January the 6th.
10:47He wanted it tonight.
10:49NXT Universe standing, chanting for the young OG.
10:51Javon Evans getting hoisted, getting tossed.
10:54And Oba done playing with his food here tonight.
11:01Looking for a fall from Cutter.
11:03A second cutter, that's two, to the top.
11:07Baby, this has got to be it, this has got to be it.
11:12Into the cover for Pister Reed.
11:16What the hell, what the hell.
11:21What the hell indeed, Ricky Saints.
11:25What?
11:29No one could have predicted that.
11:32What the hell, back into the ring.
11:34Javon blocking it out, flying through.
11:37Connects one more time on Oba Femi.
11:39The champion is rocked, the champion is dazed.
11:42And he just turned the challenger inside out.
11:46Charging it, bam.
11:47It's so hard to combat the power of Oba Femi.
11:50Right there, he's Oba Femi.
11:51Like a runaway freight train.
11:55Oba Femi now, looking right at Cody Rhodes, hoisting up Javon Evans, far from grace.
12:05Fan history not rewritten tonight.
12:09Here is the winner, and still, the NXT champion, Oba Femi.
12:22Then he turns his attention out at Cody Rhodes Saturday.
12:26But what has gotten into Saints?
12:28Is this what Ricky envisioned?
12:30I'm in absolute disbelief at the actions of our former champion.
12:35You're welcome.
