Backstage, Devin Taylor interviews Dana Brooke about her match up next. Dana says that something is bothering me lately, and its not that I haven't patted you on the head lately. Carmella likes to call herself the hottest chick in the ring, child please. No, actually, what's been bothering me is that I had to watch Bayley, who I've beaten in the middle of the ring, become the new NXT Women's Champion. No, I wanted to be taken seriously and I want it to be known as the NXT Women's Champion and the best female wrestler NXT has. So, in order to do so, I guess I have to become the NXT Women's Champion. But, you know something, people don't think I take this seriously. They think that I'm gonna use my incredible body and this pretty face and take that route to the top? No, no, no, that makes me mad, that makes me disgusted. See, what they don't know is that I turned down my initvation that I was invited to the Arnold Classic Spain, that I declined to come here and to compete in NXT. So, every woman in NXT better watch out because Dana Brooke, the Total Diva, is ready to roll, cuz playtime is over. Dana walks off, but then comes back to yet again pat Devin on the head, saying she still got it. Dana walks off for real this time as Devin continues to get madder and madder about Dana's disrespect towards her as we go to commercial.
