Never waste momentum. The WWE isn't going to remove their foot off the gas pedal. As the NFL gets set to return to the landscape and dominate ratings, WWE isn't resting on their laurels from an extremely succesful last six months. Instead, they'll run back-to-back PLEs. On Saturday afternoon, Bash in Berlin places three titles on the line at the Uber Arena in Germany.
On Sunday, the next generation takes the stage. It was just two months ago when many fans felt the NXT PLE Heatwave outshined the bigger brand's Money in the Bank event. Can they pull it off again? We'll have all of the results right here as they happen with a breakdown of what happened.

Match Card and Preview
Roxanne Perez (c) vs Jaida Parker for NXT's Women's Championship
When game day begins, Perez will have spent the last 145 days as champion. Known as the prodigy, she's taken on a wide array of contenders but has remained in charge for five months since taking out Lyra Valkyria at Stand and Deliver. Will she be able to withstand the locomotive that is Ms. Parker? Heeeeey.
Parker won her shot in the August 20th Gauntlet eliminator when she bested Sol Ruca among five other wrestlers. This is Parker's second shot at a title but first since her hot streak began early in the year. Since losing to Valkyria in January, she's only been defeated once in singles competition, a loss to Michin she has already avenged.

Oba Femi (c) vs Tony D'Angelo for NXT North American Men's Championship

Chase U (c) vs Nathan Frazier & Axiom for NXT Tag Team Championship
Andre Chase and Ridge Holland brought the gold to their campus but the former champs earned their right to a rematch when they defeated the Chase U B-team a couple weeks back.
Kelani Jordan (c) vs Wendy Choo for NXT North American Women's Champion
Choo recently attacked Jordan and stole her belt, and then Jordan returned the favor and got the belt back. Jordan defeated TNA import Rosemary, one of Choo' minions, to prep for this grudge match but Choo snuck in the ring behind her and put her to sleep with a clutch.
Wes Lee vs Zach Wentz
The former North American champion takes on his former tag-team partner who he turned on a couple weeks ago.
Ethan Page (c) vs Joe Hendry with Trick Williams as special guest referee
Page tried as hard as he could to avoid this matchup, but everyone who believed in Joe Hendry knew he would get the title shot. The TNA import's act has carried over well to the NXT, earning the outsider a chance at the belt. Hendry won a three-way No. 1 contender match despite Page attacking two different referees to stop a pinfall. For his transgressions, Ava the GM named the man Page took the title from, Trick Williams, as the special referee for this one. Hendry had already promised Williams a shot at the belt should the Scot win, so this one is geared up for some tricanery.
