February 27 or March 6 Episode:
* The episode opens with footage of The Velveteen Dream winning the NXT North American Title from Johnny Gargano "last week." Gargano comes out without the title and takes the mic. He talks about bringing it to RAW and SmackDown this week, saying he proved to everyone what NXT is really about. Gargano talks about the loss to Dream last week and said it was one of the hardest matches of his life. Gargano admits he failed. NXT Champion Tommaso Ciampa interrupts and says this week's RAW and SmackDown proves that Gargano is the best version of himself when he's together in the ring with Ciampa. Ciampa says Gargano turned down his help last Wednesday and that's why he lost the title. Ciampa proposes DIY take on The 2019 Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic tournament, then they will take the NXT Tag Team Titles at "Takeover: New York" during WrestleMania 35 weekend. Gargano looks at Ciampa, smirks and shakes his hand. DIY is back together for the Dusty Classic

Dream doesn't want to be called "Bro" by Riddle any longer. Dream says he's the champion now and he's the only one with a spotlight on him in NXT. The lights go out in the arena and Dream poses under a spotlight. The lights come back on and Riddle is nowhere to be seen

March 13 or March 20 Episode:
* WWE Women's Tag Team Champions Sasha Banks and Bayley are out next. They talk about coming home to NXT and their journeys to where they are now. They brought the WWE Women's Tag Team Titles to NXT to share with everyone because they never forget where they come from. They also said they will be defending the titles on NXT, as well as RAW and SmackDown, so the NXT women's division better step it up
* Former NFL player and former Barstool Sports employee Pat McAfee is introduced. He joins the commentary team
* Adam Cole defeated Punishment Martinez. Cole cut a post-match promo ripping on NXT North American Champion The Velveteen Dream. Cole says he was the first NA Champion and he never got his rematch. Cole says he will soon be champion again as 2019 is the year of The Undisputed Era. Dream comes out and smacks Cole in the face. Cole fires back and they go at it. Punishment comes back and beats Cole down. Dream ends the segment with the top rope elbow drop for a big pop
* Io Shirai vs. Bianca Belair to crown a new #1 contender to NXT Women's Champion Shayna Baszler ends in a Double DQ when Baszler, who was on commentary, attacked Shirai and Belair. Kairi Sane runs down to make the save but Baszler rocks her and puts her in a choke also. Shirai comes back one more time but Baszler ends the segment by choking Shirai out
* Ricochet and Aleister Black defeated Johnny Gargano and NXT Champion Tommaso Ciampa to advance in The 2019 Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic. Gargano and Ciampa used their DIY theme songs and gear again. After the match, Candice LeRae runs down to check on Gargano. Candice and Ciampa help Gargano limp up the ramp to the back. They stop on the stage and Ciampa goes to throw Gargano into the big screen but Gargano suckered Ciampa in, sending Ciampa into the LED screen instead. Gargano unloads on Ciampa on the stage and destroys him. Gargano motions for the NXT Title to be his, staring down at Ciampa. The tapings end with Gargano and Candice standing tall and posing together while Ciampa is laid out

To me, my board!
Street Profits are really about to be the new Enzo & Cass in NXT aren't they. Always over but never winning when it matters 
They really haven't been doing shyt with him. we'll see what happens when Undisputed Era gets called up but my hopes aren't very high 
Street Profits getting beat by the vanilla midget mountain 
bet it was a dope match though
looking like it's gonna be Shayna vs Bianca vs Kairi vs Io at TakeOver
i'm with it
it's gonna be interesting as hell to see how they book Sasha and Bayley appearing on 3 shows all at once, especially with one being taped a month in advance and with Cokeboy's spontaneity problems i can see some continuity issues arising
and Gargano and Ciampa gotta be the most indecisive dudes on the whole roser they love each other one min and hate each other the next
