Bobby Roode, Drew McIntyre, Roderick Strong and William Regal In-Ring Segment: 

Bobby Roode has personal security to keep everybody safe from a madman named Roderick Strong. Roode would hate for Strong to ruin that big money match at NXT Takeover Brooklyn. He officially welcomes Drew McIntyre back to the WWE. Roode brings up the comments McIntyre made last week. Bobby Roode is entitled? You’re damn right he is. Roode doesn’t need a second chance. From the moment he walked into this company, he said he was going to make a change and be the face of this brand. Roode lived up to every promise he made.

Whether you like it or not, this is his NXT. It’s not McIntyre’s NXT. It’s Bobby Roode’s NXT.  McIntyre was christened the Chosen One. Roode didn’t need to be chosen. Everybody knows that Bobby Roode is simply The One. McIntyre says that Roode is prototype of a champion. Roode’s had one of the best years of any NXT Champion. There’s one big problem with Bobby Roode and his title reign. Bobby Roode is an ass. Roode actually believes all the crap coming out of his mouth.  The higher Roode gets, the harder he will fall when McIntyre connects with The Claymore. At the end of the Glorious Entrance, Roode will be standing across from the new NXT Champion.

Roderick Strong comes down to the ring. William Regal can fine Strong if he wants to.  Strong is not done with Bobby Roode. This is about Roode disrespecting his fiance and his family. This is not about the title or TakeOver Brooklyn. Strong wants to fight. Roode wants Strong to shut up.  If Strong wants a fight, he’ll get a fight. All Strong has to do is go through Drew McIntyre first.  If Roderick Strong defeats Drew McIntyre, he’ll go on to face Bobby Roode at NXT TakeOver Brooklyn III.  Regal says that he’s the one who makes the matches around here. McIntyre knows the games that Roode is trying to play. McIntyre will fight anybody, anywhere, any time. He’ll fight Strong next week and then four days later, he’ll become the brand new NXT Champion.  Roode says that we’re all supposedly NXT, so let’s make the the match official. Regal is all about giving the NXT Universe what they want so next week, Drew McIntyre faces Roderick Strong and if Strong wins, he faces Roode after NXT Takeover Brooklyn. Roode says that this match will be glorious.
