NXT Champion Adam Cole lured The Velveteen Dream into a 3-on-1 ambush before North American Champion Keith Lee intervened and cleared the ring of The Undisputed ERA.
Tegan Nox finally had a hand against her rivals Dakota Kai & Raquel González, but it didn't matter on this occasion. Kai's enforcer put Shotzi Blackheart away with an impressive one-armed Powerbomb.
Jake Atlas got off to a 1-0 start in the Interim NXT Cruiserweight Title Tournament by defeating Drake Maverick with a spectacular cartwheel avalanche DDT.
Kushida prevailed over Tony Nese in an ultra-physical encounter, submitting The Premier Athlete with the Sakuraba Lock to start his Interim NXT Cruiserweight Title Tournament run in victorious fashion.
After picking up a well-earned win over Jessi Kamea, The Head Baddie in Charge was confronted by NXT Women's Champion Charlotte Flair ahead of their bout next week.
Looking extremely impressive in his debut, El Hijo del Fantasma started 1-0 in the Interim NXT Cruiserweight Title Tournament after planting Jack Gallagher with a Samoan Driver.
Seizing an early advantage ahead of his North American Title opportunity next week, Damian Priest struck Keith Lee in the throat with his now-patented nightstick, rendering him unable to compete.
