(Tuesday)

With TLC less than two weeks away, Luke has made a little detour back to NXT 2.0. due to Grayson Waller once again running his mouth to the Nomad, which in translation is an invitation back to his brand.

Luke: this idiot doesn't know how to keep his mouth shut

Liv giggled as she laid her head on his shoulder as they drove up to the Capitol Wrestling Center.

Liv: hmm, I wonder if Kairi is back here

Luke: I believe so, she made the choice to rejoin with Io Shirai

Liv: my friend!

Luke chuckled as he smiled at his girlfriend's cuteness. The couple then got out of the car and walked hand in hand inside the NXT arena.

(Some time later)

The show began with a women's tag team match between the team of Persia Pirotta & Indi Hartwell taking on the team of the recently reunited Sky Pirates, Io Shirai & Kairi Sane.

Kairi adjusted to the new landscape of NXT, seeing more of the young talent mixed with the veterans. The only veterans the Pirate Princess saw since returning to NXT was her best friend Io Shirai, Tommaso Ciampa and Dakota Kai.

As for the match, it was a competitive back and forth between the two teams, but it ended after Kairi took down Hartwell with a spinning forearm followed by an Insane Elbow for another successful pinfall homecoming win.

The celebration was short lived as Toxic Attraction came down for a 3 on 2 beatdown, as the NXT Women's Tag Team Champions Gigi Dolin and Jacy Jayne sees the potential threat to their tag team title reign. NXT Women's Champion Mandy Rose was directing orders to her teammates, but the Toxic beat down stopped in the form of a familiar theme.

Another surprise came for the NXT crowd as Liv returned to the brand where she started, the Jersey native took in the cheering crowd while she nodded and smiled. Liv ran down the ramp and took down Rose and connect rapid punches. Gigi and Jacy pulled Liv off, but the number one contender to Becky's title fought them off and connected punches to the Women's Tag Champions. Then Liv turned her attention back to Mandy and took her down with an enziguri, making her roll out of the ring.

The Sky Pirates got back up and neutralized the rest of Toxic Attraction by throwing them out of the ring. Liv, Kairi and Io stood tall in the ring as Mandy, Gigi and Jacy retreated to the ramp with their titles.

In the ring, Kairi, Io and Liv hugged each other and raised their arms while the crowd cheered. Then a few minutes later, the crowd has received news from Shawn Michaels and the rest of management that next week on NXT 2.0. is a six woman tag team match.

In the back, Luke nodded in agreement and clapped as he saw the match card graphic.

Luke: wow, six woman tag match, this will be in the words of the wise Jim Ross, a slobberknocker

Meanwhile, Liv went to the back, saw her love and ran to him before jumping onto his back.

Liv: did you watch me, Lukey?

Luke: oh yeah I did, and you a match next week here

Liv: Kairi had her homecoming, now I will have my homecoming
