WWE NXT made its long-awaited debut on The CW with an action-packed episode, and the spotlight quickly shifted to the brewing feud between Tony D’Angelo and Oba Femi. After turning heel on RAW the night before, The Miz hosted a segment of MizTV, setting the stage for a tense contract signing for the upcoming NXT North American Title match.
The Chicago crowd was fired up, showering The Miz with boos, to which he cheekily responded, “Tell me how you really feel.” The energy was electric as Oba Femi made his way out first, exuding confidence and dominance. Tony D’Angelo soon followed, welcomed by cheers and chants, as he brought his “family” to the ring.
D’Angelo kicked things off by acknowledging Femi’s power, admitting he felt it firsthand in the ring. Despite this, Tony vowed to use that fear as motivation, promising to dethrone Femi next week. Femi, however, wasn’t buying into D’Angelo’s words. He fired back, questioning Tony’s belief in himself and declaring that the North American Title belonged to him. Tony, rallying the Chicago crowd, reminded everyone of his tough upbringing in the city’s streets, but Femi quickly countered, warning that no one could fight for Tony next week.
The verbal exchange grew more intense, with Femi reminding Tony of the beating he suffered last week and asserting that he couldn’t win. Their stare-down concluded the segment, leaving The Miz to hype the October 8 match as “awesome.” Both competitors seem ready for an all-out battle, with D’Angelo focused and Femi determined not to give up his championship.
As NXT heads to The Factory in Saint Louis for this anticipated showdown, emotions are set to run high. Tickets for the event are still available on Ticketmaster, and fans eagerly await what promises to be a dramatic and physical contest.
