00:08The following is a speed tournament match with a three-minute time limit.
00:15Introducing first, Branson Quinn.
00:21Look Booker, it could be a big week for these two because tomorrow at Evolve Session 2 on
00:28Tubi, Kendall Gray, takes on PJ Vassa for the Evolve Women's Championship.
00:33She'll defend her title in a street fight tomorrow on Tubi.
00:38I love the street fight, man, I can't wait.
00:41One, two, three, four, five, four, five, four, five, five, six, seven, two, three, four, six, eight, one, two, three,
00:55four, six, seven, two, three, six, seven, one, two, three, four, one.
00:56Nikita, I'm just going to regard whatever it takes, I'm taking it all.
01:00I'll put it, I'm gonna set her eyes cut it for you.
01:05Nikita LIONS.
01:09NXT is live from 713 Music Hall in Houston on March 17th.
01:16Get your tickets now at Ticketmaster.com.
01:20Expect the unexpected in Texas on a Tuesday coming up March 17th.
01:27Oh, yeah, man.
01:28Let's get this thing right here kicking.
01:30This is Nikita Lions, y'all.
01:32If you didn't know.
01:33You see Red Sinclair ready, Nikita Lions, this woman ready to roar.
01:38We talk about opportunity, Booker.
01:40This match is huge for both these competitors.
01:43It is, I expect it for, I think, Nikita Lions.
01:47Nikita's been looking for that breakout moment for quite some time.
01:50She had some setbacks, but right now she's in prime position to step up, Victor.
01:55Quick kickoff, three-minute time limit.
01:57As you can see, winner will face Pia Hale next week in the Women's Speed Tournament Final.
02:01The tournament winner will face the Women's Speed Champion, that being Fallon Henley.
02:06And Booker Fallon might be the only champion in Fatal Influence after the NXT Women's Championship match later on tonight.
02:13You trying to dream something into fruition?
02:16It's not gonna happen, Vick.
02:18Let's not think like that.
02:19I'm not hooking the way you're gonna kick out.
02:21What are you trying to say?
02:23Trying to say you hating on Fatal.
02:26That's what I'm saying.
02:27I'm not, I just said that she could be the only champion after tonight.
02:30I'm just saying it's an observation.
02:32As Nikita Lions now, as we're approaching the first 60 seconds off the clock in Ren Sinclair.
02:37What a shot.
02:38And one would think that this style and stipulation suits Sinclair very well.
02:43You know, I think like Jasmine Troy, I mean, one big shot can be prime position to be champion.
02:50But it's just a metaphor.
02:51I think the Speed Championship is just a metaphor more than anything.
02:54You saw Ren Sinclair look up at the clock, we're under two minutes.
02:57And you gotta think Kendall Gray on the outside, almost acting like a coach.
03:00Oh, yes.
03:01Almost acting like a coach right now for Sinclair, letting her know how much time is left.
03:04But Nikita Lions turning Sinclair right over into the cover in her own right.
03:09And this is a big spot for Big Cat Kita.
03:11The thing about Kendall Gray and Ren Sinclair, they're serious about this red QCC thing.
03:17And Kendall, she's definitely gonna cheerlead.
03:19She's definitely gonna pump her up to try to get mid that victory to put her in position
03:24to become champion.
03:26That's the team she's mid.
03:27Talk about Gray's championship match tomorrow night.
03:29Nikita has been refining her in-ring game on a ball, which is on 2B Wednesday, 8 o'clock.
03:35She has competed under these rules before.
03:38But Ren Sinclair taking it to her now as we're approaching Booker the final 60 seconds
03:43of this matchup, and the time now becoming the factor inside 60 seconds.
03:52Big right hand from Nikita Lions.
03:54You can feel the tension starting to rise.
03:56Oh!
03:57Oh, wait a minute.
03:58Nikita right there.
03:59She landed.
04:00Why not?
04:01Big shot.
04:01There you can see that again.
04:02Drop kick right to the back.
04:0344 seconds and counting right now.
04:04Ren Sinclair going to the outside.
04:06Sinclair putting Nikita back into the ring.
04:09Gotta wonder what's going through the mind of Fia Hale right at the back.
04:11Oh, my God!
04:12We're 35 seconds to go.
04:14Did you see that?
04:14Nikita's gotta capitalize.
04:16Nikita's gotta get into the pin.
04:17There's only 30 seconds.
04:18Ren's out.
04:19Ren's out.
04:20Whoa!
04:21Cover!
04:22Whoa!
04:22Whoa, another kick out this time by Nikita.
04:24There you see Kendall screaming.
04:26There's 20 seconds left.
04:27Into the post.
04:28Shoulder first.
04:30And going up.
04:31Can't lay the back suplex.
04:32Turning inside out.
04:34And right now-
04:34Two seconds.
04:35Looking for the final wrench inside the final eight seconds.
04:40Nikita, can't you survive?
04:41She's got a top with four seconds to go.
04:44Wow.
04:46Here's the winner by submission, Ren Sinclair.
04:51Good to go, though.
04:52The final wrench.
05:19Look at the bridge.
05:22Look at the execution.
05:23Look at the torque.
05:24And you saw the tap.
05:25Because the stage is set.
05:27Sinclair, BF Hale meet in the finals next week live here on NXT.
05:33And then the winner heads to face Fallon Henley for the Women's Speed Championship.
05:40And who will be the one to challenge Fallon?
05:42Will it be some prayer?
05:43Or will it be hell?
05:44The challenge for the title in Houston on March 17th.
05:49Yeah.
05:49It's not like the Camel.
05:50I'll get you started again.
05:50And we're gonna try to do it.
05:50It's not really.
05:50It's not really.
