Dark Match: Solomon Crowe (Sami Callihan) beat Buddy Murphy via submission. Fans chanted for released wrestlers throughout. It's gonna be one of those nights.

Batista appeared after the tapings for a babyface segment with Bo Dallas... The announced return date is July 17.

Episode #1 Taping

(1) Big Cass (w/Enzo Amore) beat Sylvester LeFort.

(2) NXT Women's champion Charlotte & Sasha Banks beat Bailey & Becky Lynch.

(3) C.J. Parker beat an enhancement wrestler.

(4) Sami Zayn beat Justin Gabriel (w/Tyson Kidd). Post-match, Kidd and Gabriel beat up on Zayn, then NXT champion Adrian Neville made the save.

Episode #2 Taping

(1) Summer Rae beat Bailey to become #1 contender to the NXT Women's Title.

(2) Sin Cara beat an enhancement wrestler.

C.J. Parker called out Xavier Woods, which led to Woods getting knocked out.

(3) Bull Dempsey beat Angelo Dawkins.

(4) Tyson Kidd (w/Natalya) & Justin Gabriel beat NXT champion Adrian Neville & Sami Zayn. Natalya took an accidental bump from Zayn, which led to Kidd scoring the pin while Zayn tried to tend to her. Kidd heelishly celebrated on the ramp, ungrateful for Nattie's help. Funny. Really good action and Match of the Night three two episodes.

Episode #3 Taping

(1) The Vaudevillians beat Enzo Amore & Colin Cassady after a distraction from The Legionnaires on-stage.

(2) C.J. Parker beat Xavier Woods. Short, sloppy match.

(3) Sasha Banks beat Alexa Bliss via submission.

(4) Adam Rose beat Jason Jordan.

(5) Sami Zayn beat Tyson Kidd via submission. The excellent match you would expect from these two.

Episode #4 Taping

(1) NXT tag champions The Ascension beat an unnamed enhancement team for the umpteenth taping in a row.

(2) Tyler Breeze beat Mojo Rawley in about 30 seconds. I'm guessing they kept it short to protect Breeze's bandaged hand.

(3) NXT Women's champion Charlotte beat Summer Rae to retain the NXT Women's Title. Lots of rolling and slapping.

(4) Sin Cara & Kalisto beat The Vaudevillians.

(5) NXT champion Adrian Neville beat Rusev via DQ due to interference by #1 contender Breeze. Post-match, Rusev put Neville in The Accolade as Breeze took some selfies at ringside. Rusev then went rogue and put Breeze in The Accolade. Neville followed up with the Red Arrow to come out on top of the exchange.

Dark Segment: Batista and Bo Dallas had a promo segment to steal the show. Batista was in full face made, with a very respectful crowd, and Dallas was a great foil. Batista hit a spinebuster and did a lap around ringside taking pictures and signing for everyone.
