Penta El Zero Miedo and Rey Fenix of The Bastard and Lucha Bros battled Freshly Squeezed, Trent Berreta, and Chuck Taylor in the night’s opening match on Tuesday.

After the match, both Shida and Storm were assaulted by Britt Baker, Jamie Hayter, and Rebel who stormed into the ring and unleashed havoc. Saraya came out and saved the babyfaces. She fought Baker through the crowd, away from the ring. Riho reappeared moments later, fighting off the heels before standing tall alongside Storm.
MJF and William Regal Squabble
William Regal approached Tony Schiavone in the ring for a promo, but MJF cut him off, eliciting a massive reaction from the fans at the Heritage Bank Center in Cincinnati. The heel recalled his time as a WWE extra and the commitments that were made to him by Regal which were never fulfilled. He mentioned the terrible answer he received from the previous NXT general manager after reviewing his promos and performance. Regal, on the other hand, undercuts MJF by telling him he still had a lot to learn as a professional wrestler.

An ambitious Jericho took the fight to Castle, but The Peacock persisted in the fight, giving The Ocho a more significant challenge than many expected. Late in the match, though, neither his German suplex nor his finisher was enough to put Jericho out. The champion bounced back, provided the Judas Effect, and defended his title.
