Flashback to Jazzie Gabert's debut three weeks ago, when she attacked Xia Brookside on the orders of Jinny. Backstage Jinny and Gabert are asked how their pairing came together. Jinny says that a woman of wealth knows how to befriend someone of Gabert's status. "If any other woman thinks they can get in my way...she will take care of them," warns Jinny.
Joseph asks McGuinness who is pick is to win tonight's main event. Before McGuinness can answer, the NXT UK tag team champions, Grizzled Young Veterans (James Drake Zack Gibson), make their way to the ring. Gibson says that backstage management told them not come out but he has to get something off his chest. Gibson says they were asked to defend their titles at the download festival and he and Drake are not happy about it. He calls out Johnny Saint for making the match at that festival of "dirty" scoundrels. Gibson then claims that he and Drake are the most decorated champions in all of WWE, and demands that Johnny Saint cancel unless they want morale to drop. Segment ends.
