WWE NXT RESULTS AND LIVE BLOG FOR JUNE 4
The mousy girl screams, “Violence! Violence!” She gets hysterical cause they’re both so mean and it’s my favorite scene, but the cruelty’s so predictable, it makes you sad on the stage though our love project has so much potential. But it’s like we weren’t made for this world, though I wouldn’t really want to meet someone who was.
Do I have to scream in your face? I’ve been dodging lamps and vegetables! Throw it all in my face, I don’t care. Let’s just have some fun, let’s tear this show apart and liveblog it right from the beginning, folks.
The show opens with footage of Ethan Page arriving at the arena and meeting with Ava Raine and Robert Stone to hammer out contract details earlier today.
A recap of last week’s show follows.

Sol Ruca is prompted by Booker to speak next and says she was gonna sit back and let the rest of them get their insults and jabs out, because all of them think they’re gonna be the one, but fact is, she won’t cut any of them down, but souls will be smashed on Sunday.
Lash Legend screams loud and high and tells her she ain’t smashing anything and honestly it’s been a rough couple weeks but Sunday is about her fulfilling her potential.
The inevitable brawl breaks out and Robert Stone comes down to tell them if they don’t want to wait for Battleground, they’ll have a trios match tonight.

Commentary hypes up the card for NXT Battleground this weekend.
Ava Raine is in the ring and calls “Mr. All Ego” out.
“All Ego” Ethan Page takes his sweet time coming down the aisle.
He tells the crowd to shut up and thanks Ava because this whole thing— “We want Trick!” chants go up and All Ego isn’t happy about it and tells them to relax because they’ve got Ethan Page. He tells her to get used to him calling the shots and he’s gonna get a lot of perks that nobody else in the locker room gets and he’s tired of waiting for opportunities so he’s going to take them.
She refuses to acquiesce to his demands but he insists that she will because she needs to after the Draft lost eight of NXT’s top stars. And he knows she might hate him but she KNOWS he’s talented and he’s a megastar and he loses his mind yelling at the crowd over “Whoop that trick!” chants.
Enter Trick Williams.
Ethan says neither of them are being put through a table tonight because it’s all business. Williams is game and tells Ava to give him anything he wants so we can all get what we want, which is for Trick to whoop his ass. He’s been here for a minute, he’s got some guys in the back, and the crowd is here with him too.
He tells Ethan crystal clear, man-to-man— All Ego tells him he’s stepping too close and he needs to chill out. But he understands while Trick is emotional and angry because the last time they crossed pathes he knocked him down and held his title up, but the two of them have more in common than you’d think.
He’s been watching, he saw him and Carmelo Hayes and the spotlight on Him and All Ego has been there and hasn’t been able to break free but Trick did and now he’s the champion. But with that title comes the responsibility of that giant-ass target on his back and the spotlight that Ethan Page craves, and he’s ready to sign.
Ava opens the contract and All Ego signs it.
Williams asks Ava to sign it but she says she can’t agree to the stipulation in it. All Ego says there are two conditions she doesn’t like— his first match is for the title and he’s going to win it and end the Whoop That Era. Trick tells Ava they’ve built this place together and All Ego can’t end nothing, and you’re just gonna hear “Whoop that Trick!”
Raine signs it and Page and Williams square up and jaw at each other.
That’s the show, folks.
