Lee joins in the fun and the referee calls for the bell.

No Contest

After the match Lee with a somersault senton onto all three men.

Officials make their way to ringside to break them up.

Bron Breakker is in the locker room and Hayes says he didn't need Bron to make the save.  He doesn't want to do the can they co-exist.

Bron says that is how he doesn't want it to happen.  He wants Hayes at his best.  He says Trick is always up to something.  

Hayes says he also wants the best at Stand and Deliver.

We go to commercial.

We are back and McKenzie is with Wes and she says that chaos follows him everywhere.

Wes says JD has been in his face for two weeks so he has the second spot.  Ilja Dragunov is considered Europe's finest so he is in. 

McKenzie asks who is the final one.

Axiom shows up.

Wes says he knows Axiom really wants this but so do others.  There is only one way to give everyone a shot.  We are going to have a battle royal next week for the final spot.

Axiom says all he wanted was an opportunity.

Johnny Gargano's music plays and Javier Bernal makes his way to the ring.

Bernal says when that music hit, you thought Johnny Gargano was coming out, but you were wrong.  Just like I thought I was going to Stand and Deliver, I was wrong.  Do you know who is responsible for that?  Johnny Gargano.  Who does he think he is?  Javier says he is the heart and soul of NXT and he has been doing this for seven years, I mean seven months.  He says he would take Big Body Javy over Johnny Wrestling.  How many albums has he sold?  Combined, they are Triple Crown Champions.  He says Shawn made the wrong decision.

Johnny Gargano makes his way to the ring and he is not happy.  Johnny punches Bernal and sends him over the top rope to the floor.  Gargano sends him into the ringside barrier and ring steps.  Johnny sends him into the penalty box.

Johnny gets in the ring and he has something to say.  

He says he knows Grayson Waller is somewhere around here.  You want to raise the stakes, let's raise the stakes.  I have a contract for a match I know very very well.  April 1st, Johnny Gargano versus Grayson Waller in an Unsanctioned Match.  No rules, anything goes, and no one is liable for what I do to you.

Waller is on the ShawnTron.  Waller says he knows Johnny is upset about last week.  Do you want to embarrass yourself on NXT's biggest stage.  Waller says he will not go to the ring.  I will sign the contract next week as long as you are banned from the building next week.  If I see you, you aren't getting the match.

Johnny says that is fine.  Johnny gives the contract to Vic to give it to Waller next week.

Bernal gets back in the ring because he is not very smart and Johnny with a super kick.

We go to Eddy Thorpe.  He says there is more to him than you think.  He is proud of his heritage.  He will hold his people up and lead them forward.

Eddy Thorpe will be on NXT next week.

McKenzie is with Ivy Nile and she asks her about Tatum.

Ivy says it took a while to trust someone like Tatum.  She is a little out there and they let her do her own thing.  For her to say they were never a team . . . tonight it is not about her and she has a huge opportunity.  If she beats Lyra, she can go to Stand and Deliver and become the new NXT Women's Champion.

We are back and Hank Walker says everyone's journey is unique and his has been a wild ride.  He says he has been an athlete his entire career.  He says he has had some ups and downs over the last few months.  He was mentored by Drew Gulak.  Then he was left by his mentor. 

Drew says he came to NXT to find the best of the best and that isn't Hank Walker.

Hank says he is going to work hard to prove Drew wrong.

Drew and Charlie are in the locker room and Drew says that is cute.  Charlie says Hank has no killer instinct.

We go to Blake Howard to moderate the debate between The Schism and Chase University.

Rip and Duke go first.  They are asked about inclusion.

Rip says togetherness has always been a founding principle of the Schism.  They take off their masks.  Ava presented Duke with the gift of taking off his mask of phony school spirit.  They will hold you with open arms.

Duke has nothing to say.  He says he was given a mask.  Duke says they have passion and gave him a sense of belonging.  He says he feels good about being included.

Andre asks Duke what was that.

Ava and Thea are asked how their group makes them safe.

Ava says the world is a harsh place but she is in loving arms.  There is love under ths Schism tree.  Chase University puts up walls.

Thea says she has learned a lot about healing while at Chase University.  The Schism tries to brainwash you instead of providing safety.

Joe and Andre are next.  They are asked about the preparedness of his students to leave the nest.

Joe says his students are not ready.  They do not know what way is up.

Tyler Bate interrupts and he asks if he can toss his cap in the ring.

Jagger gets up as well.

Blake asks about their group.

Jagger says Four Roots One Tree.

Tyler says to excel in NXT, it takes more than physical prowess, it takes a big mind open to ideas.  With a willingness to learn.  Chase University is one of growth.  It ignited Thea's career and revitalized Duke Hudson.  The growth of Chase University is the growth of NXT.

Andre thanks Tyler.

Andre makes a challenge for Stand and Deliver.

Joe says the Dyad beat Chase U and he has beaten Andre in a one on one match.  There is nothing left to gain here.

Duke says they will put up the school.  Winner gets control of Chase University at Stand and Deliver.

Joe says they are on.

We go to commercial.
