Dark Match: Angelo Dawkins b. Slate Randall (Shaun Ricker) in a slow opener.
Off-Air: WWE COO Triple H comes out and welcomes the crowd to the show before putting over the 200th episode taping tonight. The crowd is already being vocal with loud chants for the recently released Kassius Ohno. One fan has a cardboard shovel sign as well.
Episode 1; Airing December 18th:
* This is the special 200th episode of NXT.
* Sami Zayn and Tyson Kidd b. Antonio Cesaro and Leo Kruger in a fun opener. Kyle notes that there was fantastic chain wrestling from everyone.

* NXT Tag Team Champions The Ascension b. The American Pitbulls (Davey Richards and Eddie Edwards, aka The Americans Wolves) in a non-title match with Fall of Man. Huge reaction for the Pitbulls. There was a scary spot when Viktor dropped Richards on his head, but after the bout Richards seemed fine. After the match, Camacho and Hunico had a staredown with Ascension.
* WWE Hall of Famer Howard Finkel came out to introduce the main event.
* NXT Champion Bo Dallas b. Adrian Neville in a Lumberjack match to retain after Neville missed the Red Arrow due to Tyler Breeze pulling Bo out of harms way.

Kane then introduces Woods’ opponent, Alexander Rusev.
* Alexander Rusev w/Lana b. Xavier Woods with The Accolade.

(TMTSF Note: This was listed as a Rusev win earlier and a Kofi win now. Either a rematch or they decided to swing things around. Or Kyle's information earlier was flat-out wrong! Dammit Kyle!)
