Tristian Angels Promo 

Order, order, order. One week ago, the winds of change blew through NXT and emerged, Tristian Angels. I am here to bring real class to this brand. And yes, it is true, I was born a 7th Generation Sheep Farmer on a hill in Dorset, England, but I knew from a young age, that there was gold running through my veins, and I was destined for so much more. And of course, I was correct. At just 22 years of age, my name has become synonymous with overachievement, internationally. I can sheer a sheep in just under a minute, and I will kick your favorite superstar’s ass even quicker than that. Because when it comes to winning and achievements, I have something of a six sense, which is in total contrast to your North American Champion, Myles Borne, who doesn’t even have all five of his. I didn’t need to scrape into other people’s moments like Kam Hendrix to feel relevant, nor do I have to go around like that toothless cavemen, Shiloh Hill, feeding disgusting racoons out of the palm of my hand or slap my belly trying to make you laugh like Hank & Tank. I am the star NXT has been yearning for. And luckily for you all, I am here. Built shoulders broad enough to carry that burden. Rejoice, NXT, Mr. England Tristian Angels has officially arrived.

Zaria, Tatum Paxley, Lizzy Rain, Nikkita Lyons Segment 

Zaria: NXT feels different, doesn’t it? There’s a change in the air, and now it could be anyone’s game. And honestly, for the first time, I’m standing in the middle of the women’s division with nobody holding back. No dead-weight, no fake-friend, the only why is me and now I’m only starting to realize that this was how it always needed to be, me, Zaria, alone. And now I have a clear path to the thing that started this all, the very thing that came between me and Sol, the catalyst, the NXT Women’s North American Championship. Some people think that title destroyed everything, but to me, that title is what finally woke me up. Because when you spend enough time around something like that, holding it, defending it, hearing about it, it starts to make you feel like it should be yours.

Tatum Paxley: Zaria. Zaria, I understand that this title didn’t just fracture your friendship with Sol, it completely shattered it. But Zaria, that didn’t have anything to do with me. Well, now you’re here trying to figure out exactly who you are, by yourself, and that’s hard. I get that more than anybody. But Zaria, if you were to come for my Women’s North American Championship, it wouldn’t matter if you scorched the earth, I’ve ended friendships, too. I’ve danced with the devil himself while putting somebody in a casket, all for this title. That doesn’t end with you.

Lizzy Rain: Oi, oi, oi. Look, Zaria, Tatum, you’re right, NXT feels different, it’s anyone’s game. And me, well, I’m the new blood in the locker room, which is why I wouldn’t mind joining on this bit of fun. Last week, Lizzy Rain was the talk of the town. And while the lineage of the NXT Women’s North American Championship is iconic, how fitting would it be if we added some heavy metal to that title?

Tatum Paxley: Heavy metal to this title?

Nikkita Lyons: Alright, alright, alright. Of course, Lizzy was the talk of the town, that’s something that they call, The Nikkita Lyons Rubs or The Divine Feline Effect. You hear them, but all I hear is the new flavor of the month shooting way over her head. And sure, you set social media on fire last week, but I’ve seen girls like you come and go, so go touch some grass, because the new car smell is already wearing off.

 Tatum Paxley: Touch some grass? Nikkita, what are you talking about? Zaria, Lizzy, if anybody wants an opportunity.

Nikkita Lyons: Excuse me, Nikkita Multimedia isn’t done. Lizzy, I don’t even know why you got eyes on the NXT Women’s North American Championship, because I’m not even done with the maiden of metal.

Rain ducks a clothesline from Lyons. Zaria HeadButts Paxley. Zaria with a Pump Kick to Rain. Zaria avoids The Roundhouse Kick. Zaria with a Release German Suplex to Lyons.

Noam says that he’s more than happy to deliver some reminders, he just had a conversation with Robert Stone, and he’s finally medically cleared to compete. Noam challenges Drake to a match for next week, he’s the perfect guy for target practice. Noam says that Swipe Right can accompany him to the ring since they look like they need supervision.
