WWE NXT Results 1/28/15: Sami Zayn vs. Kevin Owens Stipulation Added

The January 28, 2015 edition of WWE's NXT emanates live on the WWE Network and begins with The Lucha Dragons defending their NXT Tag Team Championships against Wesley Blake and Buddy Murphy.

Murphy and Blake become the new champions when Kalisto hits Murphy with Salida del Sol, but Blake had blind tagged in and rolls up Kalisto for the win.

Backstage, NXT Women's Champion Charlotte tells Bayley that she will destroy her if she ever does something like what she did last week again. Recall that Bayley attacked Charlotte from behind. Bayley does not apologize and says she has been too soft. She points out Sami Zayn walked away with the NXT Championship when he got serious. But Bayley does want to get on the same page for tonight's tag team match.

Tyson Kidd enters the ring for his match, but a promo for Solomon Crowe interrupts in a hacker break-in sort of way. Adrian Neville defeats Kidd in their first-round match in the tournament to determine the No. 1 Contender for the NXT Championship.

Charlotte and Bayley vs. Sasha Banks and Becky Lynch ends in a no contest when Bayley accidentally takes out Charlotte in breaking up a pinfall attempt by Banks. Charlotte shoves her partner, and Bayley snaps. She and Charlotte start to fight, and the heels hit the ring to make it worse. The referee throws out the match.

Finn Balor cuts a promo about facing his good friend Hideo Itami next week in the tournament. He says he did not expect to face him so soon, but Itami interrupts and says he brought Finn into NXT, and he'll be the one to take him out of it if necessary.

General Manager William Regal is in the ring for the contract signing for Zayn and Kevin Owens at the next Takeover special. Zayn and Owens come out, and Regal says he will not let this be like all the other WWE contract signings in which someone goes through a table. Zayn signs the contract, and Owens just stares at him.

Zayn says they toured the world together for 14 years with the goal of making it here, so he wants to know why Owens has turned on him. But he says it doesn't matter, because he'll just beat the hell out of his friend.

Owens says the contract is for a non-title match, and says Takeover: R Evolution was not personal. He says he fights for a prize, and that prize is the NXT Championship, not Sami Zayn. Owens won't sign the contract unless it's for a title match because the title means more money and security for himself, his wife, and his two children.

Zayn gets pumped and demands Regal amend the match. The fans break out into a Yes! chant, and Regal changes the contract. Owens signs it and then throws the pen in Zayn's face. Regal has to hold back the champion as Owens leaves with a smile on his face as the show goes off the air.
