Generation NXT - NXT recap for February 10th, 2016

Baron Corbin beats Johnny Gargano.

Sami Zayn is initially disappointed with William Regal's decision, but says he can't fault him for it as he did not expect the road back to being NXT Champion to be easy. Next week is his first match with Joe, and he knows it's going to get nasty.

The Hype Bros (Zack Ryder and Mojo Rawley) beat Corey Hollis and John Skyler.

Bayley and Carmella are interviewed backstage. Bayley says that retaining the Women's title is the hardest point, and says she won't let up because Carmella isn't her friend. Nevertheless, "may the best woman win."

Alexa Bliss beats Cameron.

Enzo Amore and Colin Cassady remind Dash & Dawson (Dash Wilder and Scott Dawson) that they're not done with them, and that they're taking the tag team gold. They're the NXT tag team of 2015, and they plan to do that again for 2016. American Alpha (Jason Jordan and Chad Gable) show up and say that 2016 is their year, however. Enzo and Big Cass don't seem to agree. Nevertheless, both teams are in eight-man tag team action against Dash & Dawson and Blake & Murphy...but both teams aren't in the mood to work together.

"The Drifter" Elias Samson beats Jesse Sorensen.

Apollo Crews may have lost against Finn Balor last week, but he knows what he needs to do to get better. He hopes to show off a new Apollo Crews te next time he's in the ring.

Bayley retains the NXT Women's Championship against Carmella. Both women show respect after the match. As Carmella leaves, however, Eva Marie and Nia Jax show up and attack her. Bayley goes for the save, but Nia Jax makes short work of her, and she and Eva attack Carmella. Suddenly, Asuka shows up and stares both Eva Marie and Nia Jax down, and Eva Marie and Nia Jax leave the ring. Bayley gets up, then Asuka stares at her and brushes her fingers against the Women's title before leaving. Bayley then checks on Carmella.

Samoa Joe tells Sami Zayn he did so much for him...but now he must take away from him next week.

Generation NXT - NXT recap for January 13, 2016

William Regal is back, and he starts the first NXT of 2016 off by announcing that the main event tonight is a battle royal to decide the next #1 contender for the NXT Women's Championship. He then introduces a man who has not been in Full Sail for quite some time: Sami Zayn, who reintroduces himself to the NXT Universe and says he's glad to be home after helping build NXT to what it is now...then says he wants to be the first two-time NXT Champion. Samoa Joe shows up, and while he appreciates his ambition, but says he doesn't deserve a shot at the NXT Championship. He tells Sami to walk away if he wants to keep his shoulder intact. Suddenly, Baron Corbin shows up, and agrees with Joe when it comes to Sami Zayn. He says he was victorious at NXT TakeOver: London, but Joe was not, and says that Zayn was replaced with someone more durable: himself. He declares himself the uncrowned NXT Champion. Joe tells Corbin to stay out of this conversation, then tells Sami to know his place. Sami tells him his place is in the ring. Joe leaves, but Sami is blindsided by Corbin. Sami fights back, then stares down Joe when he tries to get back in the ring. Joe backs out of the ring again.
