Current NXT Champion Bron Breakker has successfully defended his title on the recent Vengeance Day edition of the show.

The up-and-coming superstar took on Santos Escobar of Legado Del Fantasma for the title, marking the new champ's first challenger since beating Tommaso Ciampa for the belt at New Year's Evil.

Though Breakker dominated Escobar at the start of the match, he managed to mount some offense and utilized the steel steps to his advantage.

Breakker's comeback prompted Escobar's Legado Del Fantasma stablemates to get involved in the match, which enabled Dolph Ziggler to slip in and blast the champion with a superkick.
