>> A YEAR AGO OUR INDUSTRY LOST A LEGEND, AN NXT FOUNDING FATHER AND A TRUE FRIEND, THE AMERICAN DREAM DUSTY RHODES. AND IN HONOR OF THE DREAM, WE CREATED THE DUSTY RHODES TAG-TEAM CLASSIC TOURNAMENT, SOMETHING THAT I KNOW DUSTY WOULD HAVE BEEN VERY PROUD OF. AND IT WAS SO SUCCESSFUL THAT WE HAVE DECIDED TO DO IT AGAIN THIS YEAR. 16 TEAMS, A SINGLE ELIMINATION TOURNAMENT AND THE FINALS OF THAT TOURNAMENT WILL BE HELD AT NXT TAKEOVER TORONTO. IN THE NEXT FEW DAYS THE BRACKETS WILL BE REVEALED ON SOCIAL MEDIA. AND THE FIRST-ROUND MATCHES WILL BE SEEN RIGHT HERE NEXT WEEK ON NXT.

[MUSIC] >> AND HIS OPPONENT FROM TOKYO, JAPAN WEIGHING 180 POUNDS, HIDEO ITAMI! >> HIDEO ITAMI HAD HIS SIGHTS SET ON THE GREATEST MAN THAT EVER LIVED. RIGHT NOW WE WANT TO TAKE YOU BACK TO WHAT HAPPENED LAST WEEK HERE ON NXT. >> HIDEO ITAMI, YOU ARE JUST A COWARD. YOU’RE A BIG BABY. [CHEERS AND BOOS] >> HIDEO ITAMI DIDN’T TAKE TOO KINDLY TO BEING CALLED A COWARD AND A BIG BABY. SO HE CONFRONTED ARIES IN THE RING ONLY TO SEE ARIES RETREAT OUT OF THE RING. >> IT’S ALL ABOUT MIND GAMES. AND AUSTIN ARIES SET UP HIDEO ITAMI PERFECTLY. I DON’T BLAME HIDEO FOR GETTING ANGRY. BUT A GENIUS MOVE BY ARIES LAST WEEK. [BELL RINGING] >> SO HERE WE GO. HIDEO ITAMI AND LINCE DORADO HERE IN OUR MAIN EVENT OF NXT. GOOD SPORTSMANSHIP TO START THIS THING OFF. THAT’S ONE THING WE SAW CEDRIC ALEXANDER AND ANDRADE CIEN ALMAS, A MUTUAL SIGN OF RESPECT BEFORE AND AFTER THE MATCH. IT WAS LIKE THE SAME CASE HERE IN THIS ONE. CEDRIC ALEXANDER HAD HIS HANDS FULL WITH ANDRADE. AND NOW HIDEO ITAMI VERSUS LINCE DORADO, THIS SHOULD BE VERY, VERY INTERESTING. >> I HAVE NEVER SEEN LINCE DORADO INSIDE A RING AND IT NOT BEEN INTERESTING. [LAUGHTER] THE GUY DOES STUFF THAT JUST DEFIES GRAVITY. >> I KNOW YOU’RE EXCEPTIONALLY PROUD. THE CRUISERWEIGHTS CAN ONLY BE SEEN ON RAW. LINCE DORADO, A VERY UNIQUE SUPERSTAR, HOWEVER. OH! YOU SEE THAT LUCHADOR HERITAGE. >> LOOK! >> OH. RIGHT TO THE MID SECTION, HIDEO ITAMI OFF THE SNAPMARE. OH. >> QUICKNESS OF DORADO. [FANS CHANTING] >> WE SAW EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENED WITH HIDEO ITAMI, SOME OF THE EMPTY WORDS FROM AUSTIN ARIES. WE TALKED ABOUT IT DURING ARIES’ MATCH. HOW MUCH DOES ONE FOCUS ON A RIVAL THAT’S OUTSIDE THE RING? HOW MUCH DOES HIDEO ITAMI THINK ABOUT THAT AT THIS MOMENT? >> IT HAS TO BE IN THE BACK OF HIDEO ITAMI’S MIND. ARIES WANTS IT THAT WAY. I CAN TELL YOU RIGHT NOW IF HIDEO HAS ANY CHANCE OF SUCCEEDING AGAINST LINCE, THE GOLDEN LYNX BETTER BE THE ONLY THING ON HIS MIND. >> AND LINCE OUT ON THE APRON. AND THAT ONE CONNECTS TO THE BACK OF THE NECK. TO THE TOP ROPE. >> OH, MAN! WICKED KICK OF ITAMI LIKE A BASEBALL BAT TO THE HEART OF LINCE DORADO. >> TALKED ABOUT THAT LIST OF INJURIES HIDEO ITAMI DELIVERED TO AUSTIN ARIES IN BROOKLYN. DORADO COULD BE IN FOR A SIMILAR OUTING AT THIS PACE. >> AS BIG OF AN OPPORTUNITY AS THIS IS FOR DORADO TO MAKE A NAME FOR HIMSELF AGAINST A SUPERSTAR THE CALIBER OF ITAMI. IT COULD BE DETRIMENTAL TO COME IN HERE FOR SOMEBODY THAT CAN TURN YOUR LIGHTS OUT IN A HEARTBEAT LIKE HIDEO.
