WWE NXT REPORT: OWENS IN ACTION, BAYLEY VERSUS EMMA, BALOR VERSUS DILLINGER, SAMOA JOE MAKES AN APPEARANCE, AND MORE

By Richard Trionfo on 2015-05-27 20:50:26
Last week, NXT presented Unstoppable and we saw three champions retain their titles, a new number one contender for the NXT Championship, and a new face in the company with ties to Orlando, Samoa Joe.

We are in Winter Park, Florida and your announcers are Rich Brennan, Byron Saxton, and Corey Graves.

Sami Zayn’s music plays but he looks a lot like NXT Champion Kevin Owens who does his best to continue to annoy the NXT fans.

We see footage from Raw when Kevin Owens attacked John Cena after Cena’s victory over Zack Ryder.

Owens says he was going to come out here and he was going to issue an NXT Title Open Challenge, but . . . the fact is he is not an insecure person. He does not feel like he has to defend his title against just anybody to prove himself. Kevin says he likes it when people earn their matches against him.

Kevin says that he hears the people chant ‘John Cena sucks’ but he never hears them chant ‘Sami Zayn sucks’ because he does. You are clapping and chanting and there was someone who called him a bad person and that is not true. Kevin says that he is a good man. For example, he is a good man because that was the last time we will ever have to hear that horrendous theme song after what he did at Takeover.

Kevin says he is surprised about what people are saying about what he did at Takeover. Sami Zayn asked for the match and Kevin said he would take him out. Sami showed up and he took him out. He did it to keep his title and to continue to provide for his family and that is the essence of a good person.

Kevin says another example of being a good person. When Samoa Joe came out onto the ramp and the place exploded, Kevin says he let you live in that moment. Kevin says he heard people say that he backed down because he was afraid of Samoa Joe. That is as ridiculous as the colors of John Cena’s merchandise. Kevin says he did it to make sure you went home with a positive feeling. He could drop Samoa Joe . . . like that. If Joe steps in the same ring as him, he will drop him . . . like that.

Speaking of dropping people, at Elimination Chamber, John Cena, I will show you that the real champ is here.

William Regal’s music plays and he makes his way to the ring.

William tells Kevin that he knows he is walking a very thin line here.

Kevin tells William before he says anything about head butting him, you put your hands on me first.

William says that is the only reason why you still work here.

William says over the last six months, there have been a number of Superstars stretchered out of here. He mentions Alex Riley, Neville, and Hideo Itami.

Kevin denies any involvement in what happened to Itami.

William also includes Sami Zayn.

Kevin reminds William that Sami asked for the match and Kevin told him what to expect. Kevin says it is also on Regal for making the match.

Solomon Crowe’s music plays and he makes his way to the ring.

Crowe says he is sorry and he cannot listen to this garbage any longer. He heard something interesting while in the back. He heard Kevin say, he won’t fight anyone unless they earned it. It is because you are scared that at any given moment someone can beat you for the NXT Championship. That part about you being a ‘good guy’? Solomon says after seeing what Kevin did to Sami Zayn last week, you are a piece of crap.

Kevin asks Solomon if that is how he feels. Kevin tells Solomon he will show him how good a man he is. You just earned yourself an opportunity. Owens asks Regal if that is okay.

Regal says they are making his job easy. The main event will be Solomon Crowe versus Kevin Owens.

Kevin runs through the people he has stretchered out. He mentions Zayn a few times and then he says that you can add Crowe to the list.

We take a look at the video from last week showing Hideo Itami after he was attacked in the parking lot with Kevin Owens saying ‘that’s a shame’.

We see comments from Hideo Itami after his surgery. He says somebody attacked him in the parking lot. He says he does not know who, but they took his opportunity at the NXT Title. Itami says he has injured his shoulder and he had surgery. When he comes back, there will be no stopping him.
