Episode 1
(Note: keep in mind that taping order is not always the order in which matches air and episodes may air looking differently.)

– Triple H opened the tapings to say he was going to announce Johnny Gargano vs. Tommaso Ciampa for the NXT Championship at TakeOver: New York, but that’s off because of Ciampa’s injury. He announced a fatal five-way: Ricochet vs. Aleister Black vs. Adam Cole vs. Matt Riddle vs. Velveteen Dream, with the winner moving on to face Gargano for the NXT Championship in a 2-out-of-3 falls match at TakeOver.

1. Fatal Five-Way: Adam Cole defeated Ricochet, Aleister Black, Matt Riddle, and Evelveteen Dream. Cole pinned Ricochet to win the match, and will move on to face Gargano at TakeOver: New York. After the match, Ricochet and Aleister Black were attacked by the Forgotten Sons.

2. Punishment Martinez defeated Riddick Moss.

3. Humberto Carrillo defeated Albert Hardie Jr., aka the debuting ACH.
