We see video on the “Win or Go Home” match between Bo Dallas vs. Big E, NXT Champion Adrian Neville in action and WWE Divas Champion Paige vs. Tamina Snuka that is scheduled for this week’s show.

We see the usual intro, then the music for Bo Dallas hits as he makes his way to the ring for the “Win or Go Home” match. Bo grabs a mic and says that he has always taught his “Bo-lievers” to never give up and to follow your dreams. Tonight, we get to do both of those together. NXT was built on “Bo-lieveing” and as the longest reigning NXT Champion in history, I humbly accept the title “Mr. NXT.” When I look into the audience, I don’t see fans, I see a family and I will never give up on you and I promise from the bottom of my heart, I will never leave you. Don’t stop Bo-lieveing!

You have faced some incredible competition here at NXT, but let me hit you with some facts. I have been on RAW, FACT! I have been on Smackdown, FACT! I’m a former WWE Tag Team Champion, FACT! And I am one of the few people breathing that has had a Wrestlemania moment in front of 75,000 people, FACT! I want that feeling back and NXT and that title are my launching pad to getting it!
