Blair Davenport tells Gigi if she thinks she is getting out of this rivalry you are mistaken.  An incompetent referee gave you the biggest victory of your career.  I don't want to erase your victory, I want to end you.  Face me at Halloween Havoc.

Carmelo Hayes walks in the back as we go to commercial.

We are back with a Lexis King video package.  He says superstars would tell him stories about his father and how great he was.  King says he would lie through his teeth and tell them that he loved his father too.  At four years old, you never know that man.  His father spent more time in hotel rooms than in the same house as him.  Do you expect him to love his father?  He is in no one's shadow.  Halloween Havoc is the start of his career, not the continuation of another.  He will make his name bigger than his father's and his name is Lexis King.

Vic says there will be a live performance from New Year's Day.

Carmelo Hayes makes his way to the ring.

Hayes says it is good to be Melo.  Last week, he stood in this ring with the greatest of all time, John Cena.  He also stood shoulder to shoulder with the Undertaker.  He says this life is crazy and he feels like he is living in a video game.

Baron Corbin interrupts and he says he is standing back there listening to Hayes being a little fanboy.  He says he thought Melo was different but he was wrong.  Corbin says fans should be in the stands, not in the ring.  You were with Cena for an hour last week and then you were with Cody and Taker.  Maybe you should concentrate on being a superstar than a fan and you might still have your championship.

Dijak interrupts to finish off the Menage A Talk.

Dijak says you talk about what you can do and ought to do.  Dijak says he is going to beat them and then take the title from Ilja Dragunov.  Dijak tells Melo that Corbin is right.  All that showboating and pandering will mean nothing when you look at his eyes across the ring.

Corbin tells Dijak no one is looking at your eyes because you are wearing sunglasses inside.

Dijak says he sees Corbin crying in the back and complaining because people don't show you respect.  You want people to be afraid of him.  He says Hayes never had his name on the back of one of Hayes' jerseys for losing.

Corbin says if you are not afraid of him, you either don't know him or you are stupid.

Hayes says he will put Dijak's name on a jersey.

Ilja appears on the ShawnTron.  Instead of talking, you three should be concentrating on the fierce battle that awaits you as the next opponent for his title at Halloween Havoc.  Ilja says last week was historical but before Cody left as General Manager, he made one more decision.  Tonight's main event will be a Fatal Four Way and the final opponent is this man . . . 

Trick Williams makes his way to the ring.

Trick says he ain't gonna lie.  It is what it is.  This match has just become a Fatal Four Way.  He wants to talk about the match.

Dijak says that Trick has just stabbed his best friend in the back.  Corbin wants to talk about Trick's ugly pants.  

Trick says that Corbin is the last person to call something ugly.  Trick says it is his moment.  If he wins this match, he will be the NXT Champion.  He says he knows Melo is good with this because it doesn't change anything.

Corbin says this changes everything because Melo is shook.  While you were being a fan, Trick went into business for himself and put himself into a match he doesn't belong in.  He says Trick did it behind Hayes' back without telling him.

Hayes says he is not getting them off his game and he will do what it takes to win and he will take anyone down to get back on top.

Dijak asks about Trick.  

Trick and Hayes go face to face and Corbin and Dijak go after them.  Hayes and Trick send Corbin and Dijak to the floor.  Trick has some words for Corbin and Hayes comes up behind Trick to join him in the war of words with Corbin.

We see the Women in the back and Fallon Henley talks about last year's tournament.

Tiffany shows up and asks if people want to hear about someone who made it to the finals.

Tiffany points out that she beat Fallon.  

Fallon says that Tiffany is what these girls shouldn't be.

Tiffany asks if they shouldn't strive to be a main eventer.  Should they be like you?

Tiffany leaves.

We go to commercial.

Karmen says she is bringing her black belt into this tournament.  She has 23 years of combat experience.  People might not know her now, but when she wins, you will remember her.

Parker says there are two things you need to know about her.  Her agility and athleticism will get her the contract.  It starts with Karmen.
