O'Reilly wrote that he had never been vocal about living with diabetes but considered that it was a good time to spread awareness about diabetes considering that November is Diabetes Awareness Month. O'Reilly mentioned doctors once told him that a career in professional wrestling would be impossible for him because of the physical nature of the sport which may often result in cuts and bruises for an athlete, a situation which can be lethal for people suffering from diabetes.

WWE NXT: The OC brutalises The Undisputed ERA

NXT may have landed the first punches, but The OC made sure that Raw fired back as they visited the black-and-gold brand show. Before the show began, The OC attacked the Undisputed Era backstage and left them lying unconscious. The trio then made their way to the ring and The Phenomenal One announced that he is going to take over NXT and is ready to fight anyone who stands against him. Tommaso Ciampa who didn’t like the comments made by Style came in with his two friends, Keith Lee and Matt Riddle. The NXT trio challenged The OC for a match, which the RAW superstars accepted.

The Six-Man Tag Team Match ended in chaos after Balor and Cole interrupted the match. The match took a bad road when Lee sent AJ Styles crashing into the referee. At the end of the match, Ciampa seemed to have the match in his hand with Styles set up for The Fairytale Ending until Bálor entered, distracting The Blackheart long enough for Styles to escape. AJ Styles then took advantage of the moment and tried to end the match, but was interrupted by the NXT champion.
