MILLION DOLLAR FACE OFF!!
Grimes says everyone wants to know… why? I was always rich, I didn’t always have this lifestyle, then I start to flaunt a bit, you start embarrassing me. I look up to you. And I saw because of you, with money, I could treat people terribly and they would still like me. Its true what they say, never meet your idols.
Dibiase says I like you, we have more in common than you think. Would you consider that the reason you put through that hell, I see a little bit of myself. I’m here Cameron because I am looking for that one individual who embodies everything the million dollar man stands for. It’s not all about the money, it’s about performance right here in this ring. You got it. I’ve seen it. Since you’ve become rich, you’ve lost your focus. LA KNIGHT INTERRUPTS.
LA KNIGHT: I hear you Ted talking about your million dollar legacy, LET ME TALK TO YA. WALKING DOWN THIS RAMP IS A MAN WHO HAS KAVORKA, IS A PERPETUAL MOMENTUM MACHINE OF BADASSERY YAH.
Grimes calls him nickel and dime.
Knight says if you’re looking for someone to take you to the next level, your legacy, there is one name la knight.
Dibiase says you have a shot of becoming a megastar here in nxt, you do have a million dollar body, a million dollar mindset.
Grimes interrupts, says yeah he has the body, but get out of this ring or I’m gonan kick your ass to the moon. Knight hits his finish on Grimes. DIbiase says KID, you’re just never gonna get it HAHAHAHAH

GYV: CIAMPA & THATCHER, that was a receipt, we are done with you, msk we are not done with you, we will be watching you very closely, because we are the champions this division desperately need, if they were wrestling in our garden, we would close the curtain, cuz we are grizzled young…

Hologram Walter tells Imperium to get their shit together, Wolfe was a weakness, they need to take out Breezango for taking their tag titles
Reed promo: 14 years, it was falling, getting back up, climbing that mountain. I had a lot of doubters. This is proof that you need to need to take no for an answer. Work hard, grind it out, become a champion. Now that I got this, good luck taking it from me. To anyone in the locker room, I had a big mountain to climb, you have a colossal mountain. LEGADO comes out.
Santos: Bravo, you got some telenovela story going there. Brought tears to our eyes. They wupe their eyes with tissue. I gotta say tho, I can’t relate to any of what you said. I was born a champion. I wasn’t even born to belong to this business, this business belongs to me. After your victory, something caught my eye. Not your colossal mass. The North American title. I am the emperor of lucha libre. I see the NA title and I see USA and Mexico. Wilde says what about Canada? Canada doesn’t count, I thought we agreed on that. NORTH AMERICA represents MEXICO, which means it belongs to me. Your celebration is OVER MATE, I’m gonna do what I do best, take what’s mine. MSK make the save when Legado attacks.
