Jacy Jayne & Lola Vice Segment
Jacy Jayne: Let’s all pretend like last week never happened. Like, Rhea didn’t pin me, that Lola didn’t backfist me and cost me the match, because truth be told, none of that really matters, because at the end of the day, whether you people like it or not, for over 100 days, I’ve be standing in your face as the NXT Women’s Champion. And I have single handedly gotten rid of every single label that you people tried to put on me. The third wheel, most beatable champion, transitional champion, yeah, all so cute, but all so wrong. That’s why I find it incredibly pathetic, comical, it’s actually laughable that you people want to live in this fantasy that the one that’s going to dethrone me is Lola Vice. I mean, be so for real, Lola Vice?
A crossover act, pretending to be a wrestler in my division? But, hey, she’s flashy, right? She has a million followers on Instagram. Awesome, congratulations. But you know what, Lola, I will give you your flowers, because you have improved immensely, but you are nowhere near ready to hold this. And you know what, I’ll be the first to admit, you’ve got quite the hometown hero story going for you. Hometown crowd, AAA Momentum, camera ready tears just in case you finally pull it off and win the title. But, Lola, sweetheart, wakeup, that’s the Jacy Jayne Story. I shocked the world, been there, done that. Lola, you’re not the underdog in this story, I am. I was the one who was humiliated, thrown to the side, told that I was never going to make it. And while you were out there shaking your ass, I was out there busting my ass to get to the top. No family, no MMA Background, no hometown advantage is gonna save you for what’s coming your way at No Mercy. And absolutely no one is gonna ruin that for me.
Lola Vice: Jacy Jayne, I wouldn’t expect anything less, another person talking about my ass. Well, at least I have an ass to shake, mama. 100 days as champ, wow, that’s impressive, but you’re barely surviving. You’ve always needed somebody, I don’t. And for all those years you spent being a Toxic Third Wheel, and finding an easy way to become champion, I was knocking women out in order to earn my opportunity. You know what’s crazy? I remember being in this ring a year ago, before facing Roxanne, I was nervous, I was emotional, I mean, the Lola before would probably crawl in crying at this opportunity in front of my family. You guys saw it, but that’s not who I am anymore, Jacy. This time, this time is different. I stand before you, a year later, a completely different person. More than a fighter, a professional wrestler, a WWE Superstar. And for as much as I want to win this title for my family, for my culture, and for myself, this is also for all these people here that have always been here for me and always had my back. At No Mercy, I’m so glad it’s called No Mercy, because that’s exactly what I’m gonna show you when I knock you out, and become the new NXT Women’s Champion.
Jacy Jayne: Okay, alright, you are all fickle. You know what, Lola, I’m fully aware that, more than likely, you’re gonna beat my ass on Saturday. But you know what, Lola, I see you, I know you, I know that since the day you walked in here, you’ve been looking for validation. You want to make your Mama and Papa so proud; you want your sisters to be proud to look up to you. But, Mama, I can promise you, that somehow, someway, I will be walking out with this title. And my reality very well may be, a broken nose or a broken jaw, but your reality, come No Mercy, it’s when you’re gonna look both of your parents in the eyes, and tell them that all of those sacrifices that they made for you was for nothing. Because I’m gonna be walking out, still your NXT Women’s Champion, and you’re gonna be walking out knowing, you’re your family’s biggest disappointment. I’m the best.
Lola clocks Jacy with The 305. Lola poses with the NXT Women’s Championship to conclude this segment.
Josh Briggs Promo
I can do things in this ring that most men can only dream of. I’m a big man that can fly, I can move fast, I can hit real damn hard, and I can beat the hell out of somebody. But I keep getting told the same thing, that I don’t connect with the fans, I’m not relatable. No matter how hard I tried to please the WWE Universe, no matter how hard I busted my ass, it didn’t matter, you never cared, and you never will. And finally, I stop giving a damn about what a bunch of online tough guys, and fat podcasters had to say about me. You’re a damn fan, you’re a seat filler, and that’s all you will ever be. Nobody can deny my talent. You don’t want me, but it eats you alive knowing that I have the skill. You’re all hypocrites. When I come out, you tell me, Briggs, go away, but what are you saying when my match ends. Maybe you’re the one who don’t get, just like Je’Von Evans. He lives and dies by your approval. He wants to be loved, and he’ll put his body through hell to entertain you. That approval is chasing; it makes him weak. This Saturday at No Mercy, I’m gonna show Je’Von Evans and everyone watching, that everything else is just noise. I don’t give a damn if I connect with you, when I boot connects with his face. So, cheer whatever the hell you want, the only cheer that I care about is 1-2-3.
