WWE NXT REPORT: THE FINAL STOP BEFORE NO MERCY, WENDY HAS A NEW FRIEND, WES AND ZACHARY DON'T LIKE EACH OTHER, A GUEST REFEREE FOR SUNDAY, AND MORE

By Richard Trionfo on 2024-08-27 22:04:00

Ethan Page is in OFFICE with Ava. 

Ava says what Ethan did last week was unacceptable.  

Ethan says that Ava can fine him or he can suspend him so he doesn't have to defend his title.

Ava says Ethan will be defending his title and he will figure things out.

Ethan says that he assumes that Ava doesn't want a singing Scotsman as champion.

Zachary Wentz makes his way to the ring.

Wes Lee makes his way to the ring.

The referees break from WALL OF SECURITY to calm down Wentz.

Lee tells Wentz to say what he had to say.

Wentz says every team and family in professional wrestling break up, but not the Rascalz or MSK.  He asks why does Lee want to piss this away after 9 years.  Does Wes think he is a bigger star?

Wes says he is the bigger star and he says Wentz came back just for the rub.  He says they are on different levels.

Wentz says no one was more proud of what Wes did than him.  They were one of the greatest tag teams in NXT history and he ruined it.  You got to be the singles superstar you wanted to be and Wentz says he grew up.  Wentz says Wes motivated him to dig himself out of the hole and come back to NXT to be reunited with his brother.

Wes says he is so glad that he motivated Wentz but the nostalgia would have been nice for a few weeks and then he would realize they are not on the same level.  He says this isn't 2022 any more.  

Wentz says that Wes is one of the most sensitive men on the planet.  Him and Trey came out when you were going to quit for the third time.  What happened when you went through your surgery?  Who was there when your wife was working?  Who was there when you had doubts?  He says he couldn't be your tag team partner in front of the cameras, but behind the scenes they were always brothers.

Wes says he will show Wentz that they are on different levels.

Wentz says Lee has underestimated him their entire lives.  Wentz says he will make sure that Wes fails.  Wentz says he became the TNA tag team champion with Trey.

Wes tells Wentz to forget everything they have done.  He says he will show why he is a WWE Superstar and Wentz is a TNA wrestler.

Wentz says this TNA wrestler will beat the ass of this WWE Superstar.

Joe says when he beats Ethan, Trick gets the next title match.
