Seth Rollins is walking backstage. We’ll hear from him, next.

-Commercial Break-

Seth Rollins addresses losing the WWE Universal Championship

Seth Rollins makes his way to the ring, and the former Universal Champion listens to boos from the crowd. This is Rollins’ first appearance since losing the title at WWE Crown Jewel to “The Fiend” Bray Wyatt. Rollins looks conflicted. Rollins asks what’s next for him. It’s been a rough week. To be honest, it’s been a rough couple of months. Rollins says he isn’t stupid. He hears the boos. Rollins knows plenty of people are thrilled he lost the title to The Fiend at Crown Jewel. The crowd lightly cheers. Rollins doesn’t give a damn. What concerns him is The Fiend took the Universal Championship to Friday Night SmackDown. Now Lesnar is back on Raw with the WWE Championship. What concerns him is everything he’s worked for this past year in getting the title off Lesnar and changing the culture to give guys like AJ Styles and Baron Corbin a shot is a wash now. Rollins wanted to redesign, rebuild, and reclaim, but he doesn’t know if he’s got the energy for it this time. What’s next for Seth Rollins? For the first time in a long time he doesn’t know. Rollins looks like he’s going to cry.

Triple H’s music hits, and the COO of WWE and NXT’s Founder makes his way to the ring. A LOUD “NXT” chant picks up. Triple H says it’s funny how history repeats itself. Whenever Rollins doesn’t seem to know what’s next their paths cross. If you want to know what your future is, you have to retrace the steps of his past. Maybe Rollins’ past is his future. One time when Rollins didn’t know what was next he won the NXT Championship. Rollins put the brand on the map. Next time he was lost, The Shield was born. When that ran its course, he came to Triple H and became the WWE Champion. It’s that way over and over again. Rollins asks if those things were for his benefit or Triple H’s. Triple H asks if it really matters because every time it ended with Rollins as a champion. This is an interesting moment of time. Triple H knows what’s next. He’s sure Rollins saw what happened on SmackDown. Rollins says Triple H fired the first shot when the roster was stuck in Saudi Arabia. Triple H says NXT Champion Adam Cole beat Daniel Bryan in the middle of the ring. They made a statement that NXT is here and it’s real. NXT at this moment is on fire. The whole world wants to know what NXT will do next. Clearly he didn’t come alone. What will NXT do next? Triple H is here for a different reason. He wants to know what Seth Rollins will do next. What Seth Rollins does next will affect what he does next.

At Survivor Series, it’s Raw vs. SmackDown vs. NXT for the first-time ever. They’ve got something to prove. Maybe Rollins doesn’t know what’s next and if he has the energy and drive anymore, but Triple H does. Triple H knows how to get Rollins there and make him great. Rollins knows how this works better than anybody because Rollins is either with him in this moment… The Undisputed ERA makes their way to the ring through the crowd and gets on the apron. An “NXT” chant picks up. Triple H says Rollins is either with him or against him.

The O.C. makes their way to the stage and pose. They then come down to the ring. The Undisputed ERA get off the apron and et into the crowd before The O.C. attacks. Dominik Dijakovic and Damian Priest attacks The O.C. from behind, and The Undisputed ERA joins in. The rest of the Raw roster runs them off. Rollins is still in the ring watching what’s going on. Rollins looks conflicted and leaves the ring.

-Commercial Break-

Triple H is walking backstage when Seth Rollins stops him. Rollins says if he’s coming to NXT, he’s coming in as a top guy. This isn’t Friday Night SmackDown. Daniel Bryan couldn’t get the job done. Rollins wants Adam Cole for the NXT Championship tonight! Triple H accepts the challenge!

Andrade and Zelina Vega make their way to the ring. Vega says she will embarrass and humiliate that butt ugly woman who hides her face. We’ll also watch Sin Cara be exposed as not only a man without a face, but a man without a prayer of ever defeating the most talented superstar in the world, Andrade.

He’s not here to call her names, but he is here for Bob Lashley. Rusev wants to tell him man-to-man if he wants Lana, she’s all his… but his ass belongs to him!

Bobby Lashley makes his way to the stage on crutches along with Lana. Lashley says as much as he would love to beat Rusev all over the arena, but he’s not medically cleared to compete. Lashley has suffered a debilitating injury. He has a torn groin. He didn’t tear his groin at Crown Jewel or training. He tore his groin doing things Rusev could only fantasize about with Lana. They kiss. Lana says Rusev isn’t interested in hearing about their lives filled with love and sex, but he is interested in a different type of fight. Today is Rusev’s lucky day because someone else has volunteered to fight Rusev. This guy will kick Rusev’s ass. Drew McIntyre makes his way to the ring.

We’ll hear from Raw Women’s Champion Becky Lynch, next.

-Commercial Break-

Charly Caruso is backstage with Becky Lynch. Charly says Lynch has had a great 2019. Now she has a tough task facing SmackDown Women’s Champion Bayley and NXT Women’s Champion Shayna Baszler at Survivor Series. Lynch says it’s a dangerous triple threat and she is the target. Lynch beat Bayley’s buddy Sasha Banks and sent Baszler’s friend Ronnie (Ronda Rousey) running.

NXT Women’s Champion Shayna Baszler takes Charly Caruso’s chair. Baszler says she’s been waiting a long time to meet Lynch. Baszler says Lynch is always thought of as a shining example of the greatness that comes from NXT. Baszler says she trained with Ronda Rousey and Lynch beat her at WrestleMania. Baszler wants to make something clear: she’s not Ronda Rousey. At Survivor Series, she’s not going to take her eyes off Bayley, but she wants to come here eye-to-eye, champion-to-champion that she’s going to pin Lynch or tap her out. The only thing Lynch will have to think about at Survivor Series is which of her limbs will belong to her.

Lynch says she doesn’t know Baszler so she doesn’t know if she respects her or should slap her head off. She’s glad Baszler got a chance to talk so she can feel how Ronda felt. Warring with her will change Baszler like it did the rest of them. She won’t take her eyes off Bayley, but she is coming directly for her. Baszler sarcastically says she’s really glad to have met Lynch. Lynch says Baszler better bring her best because she’ll show her why she’s The Man.

Becky Lynch will take on Bayley and Shayna Baszler at Survivor Series on November 24.

The O.C. makes their way to the ring. AJ Styles says he is not in the mood so Long Island better sit down and shut up. Here are the facts. Gallows and Anderson are the best tag team in the world, and they have the trophy to prove it. Here’s another fact. He’s the Phenomenal AJ Styles, the United States Champion. They don’t give a damn about NXT. Next time they see one of those punks, they’ll make sure they never step foot out of Orlando, Florida.

The Street Profits come out with Humberto Carrillo. Montez Ford says The O.C. has their little trophy and are officially the best tag team in the world. Angelo Dawkins says even though they weren’t in the match, Gallows and Anderson were beaten by them two weeks ago. Ford says they can’t say they beat The O.C. Dawkins asks if they can’t say they beat The O.C. in their first match two weeks ago. Ford says Humberto Carrillo can say it. Carrillo says the Street Profits beat The O.C. two weeks ago. Carrillo says it again, but it doesn’t get much of a reaction. Styles tells Carrillo to shut his mouth or he’ll do it for him. Ford asks Carrillo to say it in Spanish, so he does. Dawkins says Styles hates Carrillo because mothers like to swipe right on the dimples. Ford says they will swipe left on The O.C. and they want the smoke.

This six-man tag team match is next.
