00:00That would put the Culling in line for a mixed tag team
00:03title opportunity down the line in Triple-A, would it not?
00:06I was just saying, you know, you want to be working with the champ
00:10or you want to be the champ, one of the two.
00:12Right now, Izzy Dane is one step closer to that championship.
00:17Oh, if they were victorious, it'd be something for the new general manager,
00:21which will be announced for Triple-A on May 23rd in Mexico City
00:25as Nico Vance and Mr.
00:34Iguanas do that right there to make their opponents feel like they're dead.
00:39Did they come to life dead like that?
00:40What do you mean opponents?
00:41You mean like prey on the alley?
00:42What are you talking about opponents, Booker?
00:43I got Iguanas in my backyard.
00:45None of them do that.
00:46None of them do this either.
00:47There's Mr. Iguana right now holding out.
00:49Dickie!
00:50A submission center of the ring.
00:52Tonight is the first time, though, I have seen our general manager, Robert Stone, upset.
00:58You know what?
00:59It's about time.
01:00It's about time, Robert Stone.
01:01Get upset and start making some power moves around here before you get fired.
01:07Wait a minute.
01:08Lola just handing Lajeska.
01:14Lajeska!
01:15And Mr. Iguana take...
01:17Oh!
01:18That's legal.
01:18That's legal.
01:20How's it legal, Booker?
01:21What a wardrobe.
01:23Well, I guess into the cover and a kick out.
01:25I guess if Mr. Sacco was legal and...
01:29That was a...
01:29That was a...
01:29That was a...
01:30That was a...
01:30That was a...
01:30That was a...
01:30That was a...
01:34Sean Spears holding the Iguana like it's going to bite him.
01:38And a tag was made.
01:39And again, the rule of women fight the women, men fight the men.
01:42So Lola doesn't need to make a tag.
01:44Oh, yeah!
01:45And it tags.
01:46Here we go!
01:46And now going right to the body.
01:48Just lighten up Izzy Dame in the corner.
01:50If you want to face the champ, this is what you're going to be facing.
01:53This could be a wake-up call for Izzy Dame.
01:55Educated feet right here from Lola Vise.
01:58Dame and Mr. Iguana approaching three months as mixed tag team champions,
02:02but a big clothes approaching three months as mixed tag team champions,
02:06but a big clothesline from Izzy Dame.
02:08You would think that Lola and Mr. Iguana would have the advantage due to their history.
02:13We're talking about being champions.
02:14I mean, won those titles on February the 7th, but Izzy Dame and Nico Vance,
02:18they have been in the culling for quite a while.
02:21They know each other just as well as anybody.
02:23Yeah, of course, you're talking about reps, timing, cutting, what it is.
02:25They have all of that, but the culling has one thing that nobody has is that the GPS.
02:31The GPS, Sean Spears.
02:33Sean Spears on the outside keeping a close eye on the action,
02:37but for Izzy, is this Dame's moment?
02:40It is.
02:40Because like I say, I mean, Izzy Dame,
02:42if she can just get a win here, no matter what that place is.
02:46From behind, from behind.
02:47Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
02:47Perhaps that puts her in line as the next one.
02:51Well, you gotta think, Lola Weiss has been called out by Izzy Dame.
02:55Izzy is trying to get the better of Lola.
02:58And Lola has been able to stay one step ahead,
03:01just like she is right here in the ring against Izzy.
03:03And right back in with another big kick, buckle in the line.
03:07That kick is deadly right there, Victor.
03:11And look at Iguana.
03:12Oh, Iggy, Iggy on the move.
03:14Nico Vance.
03:16And now everybody on the outside.
03:18Iguana, climbing, tag made.
03:21Lola is now the legal superstar for her team.
03:25Down goes Vance.
03:28Down goes Dame.
03:29Double up, double up.
03:31With Triple A, mixed tag team champion.
03:33A little rub, a little rub, a little rub, a little rub, a headshot.
03:55Whoever you're watching around the world, everybody loves Mr. Iguana, as do you.
03:59Iggy, I call him Iggy.
04:01Hey, hey, hey.
04:02I didn't do anything, I didn't do anything.
04:03There's Sean Spears.
04:04And Spears, to his credit, didn't do anything.
04:07Didn't do anything.
04:07But he did cause a distraction.
04:09Didn't do anything, Vance.
04:09Stopped Lola in her trash.
04:11You gotta keep down on the prize in the middle of that square circle.
04:14Do not blame Sean Spears for that mistake right there made by Lola Vance.
04:19I did not blame Sean Spears.
04:21I said his presence stopped Lola and he did nothing.
04:24And that brings me to this question to you, Paul.
04:26How has Sean Spears kept the culling the list?
04:30I mean, there's so many groups, so many factions here hasn't been able to keep them together.
04:34Because they don't have someone like a Sean Spears guiding that ship.
04:39That's what it is, man.
04:40Booker, you love Mr. Iguana.
04:42I have never seen you smile that much.
04:45Iggy on the move.
04:46Oh!
04:46Iggy on the move.
04:47Iggy's not on the move.
04:48He just got knocked out of the tree.
04:50He got knocked off the fence.
04:51He got knocked off the gutter.
04:52Whatever you want to call it.
04:53He is down in the backyard.
04:55And there is Nico Vance.
04:57Freeze, freeze, Iggy.
04:58Go into your freeze motion.
05:00That way you play dead, Iggy.
05:02Play dead.
05:03And we need to congratulate Nico Vance, by the way.
05:07The reality of wrestling championship is in his possession.
05:10There it is.
05:10There it is.
05:11Take a look.
05:12Look at you right now.
05:12Nico Vance is a guy that's got star potential, star quality.
05:17I'm talking about just put him in the game and let him score.
05:21That's what I say about Nico.
05:24Well, Nico obviously is going to have the power advantage here against Mr. Iguana charging in.
05:29And look at Vance staying right on top, breaking down the body of Mr. Iguana.
05:36Mr. Iguana beating up so bad his tongue is hanging out of his mouth.
05:39Nico Vance is taking it to Iguana right now.
05:43This would be a big win.
05:44We've talked about Izzy Dane.
05:45This would also be a big victory for the Culling.
05:48This would be a big victory for someone like Nico Vance to beat an international superstar.
05:52The Culling actually needs this win a whole lot more, I think.
05:55It's a non-title battle.
05:57Like I said, it definitely sets the level.
05:59Perhaps for those tag team championships.
06:01But my thing is this.
06:03My thing is this.
06:05You can't be thinking about that right now, Vic.
06:08You just got to go out here and put the hammer down, man.
06:16All right, all right, all right, all right.
06:19There he is.
06:20There he is.
06:22Well, Sean Spears out here now might have just fired up the NXT universe who heard what he had to
06:27say about the mixed tag team champions.
06:29And now it's Spears barking at Mr. Iguana.
06:34And Izzy Dane taking full advantage when Felix Fernandez was distracted into the cover.
06:40See that?
06:41Why was Iggy looking at Izzy like that?
06:44Don't necessarily know.
06:45I thought you were going to point out that Nico Vance was able to tuck that arm back underneath the
06:49bottom rope to get a pinning predicament.
06:50Something that he has learned with the tutelation from Sean Spears.
06:53Part of the game.
06:54Part of the game.
06:55If you ain't learning it, you lose it.
06:58Lola Vance has a look of concern on her face and rightfully so.
07:02Mixed tag team match.
07:04Which duo is going to walk out victorious here on NXT?
07:13Nico Vance trying to take it to Mr. Iguana.
07:15The same Mr. Iguana who is in Las Vegas, competed in the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal.
07:20Lola Vance looking on as it got slammed.
07:23And Nico Vance right back in with a headbutt.
07:26Spiked him right there.
07:27This could be it.
07:28Iguana could be down.
07:29And an ear fall.
07:31Nico just playing with Iggy right there.
07:34Don't play with him, Nico.
07:36He's dangerous.
07:38And he shouldn't be playing around.
07:39He shouldn't be taking him lightly.
07:41Mr. Iguana and Lola Vance both were in this past year's respective Royal Rumble matches.
07:46Mr. Iguana entered at number nine.
07:49And he just trying to keep up the momentum he has had all year.
07:53But he's running into a brick wall.
07:55And a big headbutt.
07:56Oh, man.
07:59Oh, yeah.
08:01The NXT Universe is stunned.
08:03But Mr. Iguana starting to crawl.
08:05So close.
08:05Oh, not close enough.
08:07Mr. Iguana trying to reach out desperately.
08:09Gets that Instaguri.
08:11But Izzy Dame playing a snake in the grass.
08:15Nobody home.
08:15You can trust a snake, Vic.
08:17You can trust a snake to bite you.
08:20Oh, it's all over, man.
08:22Another cover by Vance.
08:24And another kickout by Iguana.
08:27What?
08:27But look at this headbutt.
08:28Oh, yeah.
08:30Right under the jaw.
08:33Talking about snakes.
08:34We got Iguanas.
08:35We got GPSs.
08:36We got everything in this matchup.
08:37It's mixed tag team action here on NXT.
08:40Again, this was supposed to be our main event.
08:42But due to the action of Cam Hendricks, this matchup had to be moved up from our general manager, Robert
08:49Stone.
08:49And this was supposed to be Tavion Heights versus Tony D'Angelo.
08:53That matchup, though, still to come here on NXT as Lola Vice is back.
08:59Reaching out for the tag.
09:00Desperately wants in this match.
09:02And again, Izzy's going to have to enter the match immediately.
09:05And this is what Lola's been waiting for.
09:08Starting to light up Izzy Dame.
09:10And the NXT Women's Champion right now is certainly connected with some kicks.
09:15Man, she's quick.
09:15She's so quick with those feet, man.
09:17Own momentum took herself off the feet.
09:19And again, she knows it.
09:20We know it.
09:21This is a make or break for the culling at this point.
09:25What is Niko having to pay?
09:29Where did Iguana come from?
09:31Take a kick!
09:35Ha! Ha!
09:36All right in it.
09:37All right in it.
09:38All right in it.
09:39All right in it.
09:39All right in it.
09:39Yeah!
09:44I don't know if Mr. Iguana got forgotten the moveset.
09:47Into the cover!
09:48Hook of the leg!
09:48In an earfall.
09:51Iguana was really getting into the face of Niko Vance.
09:54And this matchup certainly has taken a turn.
09:58He's just trying to hold on now as Izzy Dame.
10:00Because look, Izzy and Niko know just how important this matchup is.
10:04And Izzy trying to fight back.
10:06Talk about Tony D'Angelo though.
10:08You also got to think about Lola Weiss.
10:10Because both women won a kick!
10:11That was it!
10:12That's a knockout!
10:15It...
10:17Good move.
10:18Good move there to save that three count.
10:22Well Mr. Iguana trying to run interference.
10:25Vance to the outside and turn it back around.
10:28Just getting de-cleated was Lola Weiss.
10:32And just able to get that shoulder up.
10:34And you feel the frustration right now boiling in Izzy Dame.
10:38That may have been the Culling's best opportunity.
10:39Izzy Dame so close off she needs a new pick.
10:42They're just trying to...
10:43Wait a minute!
10:44Do the reverse!
10:44Well double reversal!
10:46Double reversal!
10:46Nice job!
10:47And that's why Lola is champion looking for the submission.
10:50Niko running in.
10:51Niko right now looking over.
10:53And Niko got caught!
10:54Double submission!
10:56But the women are legal!
10:58Booker remember the women are legal.
11:00It does not matter what happens to Niko.
11:02Izzy just can't tap out.
11:06And the men now spill to the outside.
11:09And Izzy Dame, you talk about the length of Izzy.
11:11She's so close.
11:14And Izzy able to negotiate her way to that bottom rope.
11:17And now Lola realizing...
11:20Mr. Iguana's out!
11:21From behind is Izzy!
11:23Shoulders down and a kick out!
11:25What a match!
11:26Back fist didn't connect!
11:27But Izzy with that running knee under the jaw!
11:31Got it!
11:32And Izzy just pinned the women's champion!
11:36Here are your winners!
11:38The Crawling!
11:41What a victory for the Culling!
11:45What a victory for Izzy Dame!
11:49Do it!
12:02We all thought that was a knockout blow.
12:05But Niko Vance is able to save things for his team.
12:10As this matchup would continue, you would see Mr. Iguana get planted.
12:14Lola Vice would see what happened to her partner.
12:17That would distract her for a moment.
12:18After missing that back fist, she was the one who was knocked down by Izzy Dame.
12:24And again, Izzy has now pinned Lola Vice.
12:26And the question now becomes...
12:29Does Dame have Lola's number?
12:32Is the Culling going to take over Vice City?
12:37...
12:39...
12:39...
12:39...
12:39...
