Grayson Waller and Austin Theory present a new edition of their talk show The Effect. Waller asks for applause for “Atlanta’s favorite son”, his partner, but the crowd responds with boos. After the introductions, Grayson calls his guest of the night, “The Ruler” Oba Femi.

The Nigerian makes his entrance into the ring and sits down. Waller welcomes him while the crowd applauds his presence. Waller lists Femi’s achievements in just two years at NXT. Theory recalls that Femi started in the brand at only 24 years old and already dominates it. Theory mentions that many consider him a future WWE main eventer, although he and Waller don’t share that vision.

Femi points out that he also didn’t see them as NXT champions, and that’s exactly what happened. Waller recalls that at WrestleMania XL they won the WWE Tag Team Championship while Femi watched the show from the stands. Theory indicates that he and Waller are in the big leagues, RAW and SmackDown. Theory states that he and his partner have traveled all over the world, creating unforgettable moments.

Femi questions why they don’t hold titles. Maybe it’s because they talk too much. Femi states that he earned his position by fighting, not talking. Femi proposes a moment, a PLE and a title opportunity, on February 15 in Washington, DC, at Vengeance Day. The question is which of the two will accept the challenge. Theory starts walking toward the Nigerian, but Waller stops him. The Australian recalls that he’s been in the ring with some of the best, like John Cena and Kevin Owens. He then declares his desire to fight for the NXT Championship.

Ava appears to remind Femi that she, not him, schedules the matches in NXT. Trick Williams interrupts the segment to confront “The Ruler”. Williams attacks Waller and Theory, driving them from the ring. He is then surprised by Femi, who delivers a “Powerbomb”. Femi raises the title to end the segment.

Sarah Schreiber interviews Izzi Dame in the stands. Dame claims to have no connection to The D’Angelo Family. They simply share a common enemy. Ridge Holland interrupts the interview to confront Dame, who cost him his NXT North American Championship. “Stacks” appears to clarify that he can’t address a woman that way. Holland mocks him, indicating that he won’t argue with NXT’s don’s messenger. Tension rises, but security intervenes to separate them.

Singles Match: Wes Lee vs. Trick Williams

Dupont enters the ring with a steel chair. Williams quickly kicks it away to take possession, causing everyone present to flee. Two referees approach Williams to try to calm him down.

Ava bids farewell to “The Ruler”, indicating that she needs to talk to Trick Williams.

Ava enters the men’s locker room to confront Trick Williams. He questions the General Manager about Grayson Waller and Austin Theory’s merits to receive a title opportunity. Ava proposes that he find out for himself next week when he teams up with Oba Femi to face A-Town Down Under.
