NXT Great American Bash

The 2022 Great American Bash edition of NXT opens with some of the NXT roster at a 4th of July barbeque, hosted by Josh Briggs and Brooks Jensen. They’re playing frisbee, chugging beers, relaxing, swimming, etc., and discussing who they think will win each match tonight. Duke Hudson enters the pool and Sanga jumps in with a cannonball on top of him. Jensen puts too much lighter fluid on the charcoal, so when Fallon lights the BBQit practically explodes.
