(Tuesday NXT 2.0)

Two huge tag team matches were on for tonight's show at the Capitol Wrestling Center.

Ilyas Rizal and Marcel Barthel (with Walter) vs. Legado del Fantasma (Raul Mendoza & Joaquin Wilde) (with Santos Escobar)

Io Shirai and Cora Jade vs. Toxic Attraction (Jacy Jayne & Gigi Dolin)

Ilyas was at catering looking over the pictures Io sent to him from their hangout this weekend. As he was occupied, his mentor The Ring General startled him by tapping his shoulder.

Ilyas: oh my goodness General, you startled me

Walter smirked and took the opportunity to tease his subordinate.

Walter: looks like you had a good time this weekend

Ilyas: General, she is just a friend

Walter: your friend for now, but it will be more in the future

Ilyas: we're just in the getting to know each other stage

Walter: a good start

Ilyas: oh you saw the match card for tonight?

Walter: yes, and this is the perfect time for you to be a part of the group

The Descendant's eyes lit up.

Ilyas: I'm part of the group now?

Walter: yes, and I got an update on Fabian, he will return soon, he was dealing with an injury

Ilyas: oh I see

Walter: I want to see you and Marcel work together like a well oiled machine

Ilyas: you can count on us, General

Walter: good, I'll see you out there later

The Ring General patted his shoulder and left the young Descendant to himself.

(At the women's locker room)

Io was smiling while she was looking through pictures of her and Ilyas from their hang out last weekend. This caught the attention of the young NXT 2.0 star and her tag team partner for tonight's match, Cora Jade.

Cora: oooh, what's that?

Io's eyes widen as she was startled from Cora sneaking up behind her.

Io: Cora-chan!

Cora: oh sorry Io, I didn't mean to startle you

Io: it's alright

Cora: oh, were you hanging out with the new guy?

Io blushed a bit, but she couldn't hide anything from Cora since she saw the proof for herself.

Io: hai, but we're only friends

Cora: oh yes, from the start, but sooner and later-

Io blushed and covered Cora's mouth while the young star giggled and smirked.

Cora: just messing and joking with you, Io

Io: I know you were, but now let's focus on our match for tonight

Cora: oh yeah, I really want to take down Toxic Attraction, especially the head of the snake, Mandy Rose

Io: hmm, we are partners for tonight, but when the NXT Women's Title is on the line, we are opponents

Cora: I know, but let's focus on taking care of her sidekicks

Io: hai, let's think of a strategy

The two talk strategy for their match as they are dealing with a common enemy in the trio of Jacy Jayne, Gigi Dolin and Mandy Rose.
