2/5/20
After the opening NXT package, we start off in the ring for the first match of the night.
Ding, ding, ding.
Kayla: This opening contest is a Fatal 4-Way match scheduled for onefall, and is for the WWE 24/7 championship. Currently in the ring from the Neutral Zone, he is the WWE champion, and the current WWE 24/7 champion... KO!
KO was in the middle of the ring, holding up his two titles to a cheering crowd. Monday he found out he was defending his world title against Ricochet, so now his open challenges were for the 24/7 title only.
Mauro: Welcome to NXT, the hottest brand in sports entertainment. We kick things off the ever so active, 24/7 title.
Beth: KO has been a very productive 24/7 champion since regaining the 24/7 championship at the Royal Rumble, where also won the WWE title. Becoming the youngest to hold the top prize in WWE.
Nigel: Since then KO has actually held open challenges for the 24/7 and WWE title, tonight its just the 24/7 title.
Kayla: And his opponents.
SHOCK... the System
(cue: Undisputed Era theme)
Out came one half of the NXT tag team champions, the only 3 time tag team champion.
Kayla: First, representing the Undisputed Era, he is one half of the NXT tag team champions... KYLE O'REILLY!
Nigel: The 24/7 title is about to become Undisputed.
Mauro: Kyle O'Reilly, the third member of NXT's most dominant faction to vie for the 24/7 title. His buddies Adam Cole and Bobby Fish have come close to winning the title, but no proverbial cigar.
Beth: The UE's hoping third time's the charm.
As soon as Kyle was halfway down the ramp, some punk music played out as a teenage girl came out, with blond hair resting on her shoulders, wearing a white shirt with black sleeves and a repeat button logo, black track pants, and shoes. She threw up some devil horns before making her way to the ring.
Kayla: Next, TREE GELBMAN!
Mauro: Well, if it ain't the final girl from the Happy Death Day movies, Tree has faced Death on numerous occasions.
Nigel: Seems with each death, Tree just gets stronger and wiser. She'll look to use that added experience in this match.
After Tree enters the ring, she and the other two wait for the fourth combatant to come to the ring.
(cue: Regalty)
The crowd pops at the theme to the NXT GM.
Mauro: Oh dear, is NXT GM William Regal gonna announce the final participant in this 24/7 title match.
Contrary to Mauro's theory, William walks out in one of his old Regal robes with a pair of black tights and wrestling boots underneath.
Kayla: And from Blackpool England, he is the General Manager of NXT... WILLIAM REGAL!
Nigel: WHAT!?
Beth: William Regal, our own GM, coming out of retirement for the 24/7 title?
Mauro: Seems, so. Does he even have one more step to compete?
The shock of William's participation rang through the NXT locker room, including the Undisputed Era. Even the ones in the ring were stupefied by this. The ref Drake Wuertz held up the 24/7 title.
Ding, ding, ding.

DING, DING, DING!
KO slid out of the ring and grabbed his title belts before making a beeline out of the arena while a mob of NXT hopefuls stormed down after him. While in the ring, the others were disappointed by the outcome, especially Adam as he group is now 0-3 in 24/7 title matches. The only one not upset was William Regal, who was just glad to have one last match. "I may have lost, but I think I found a future star." Regal said to himself as he looked where KO had ran.
Title changes: none.
