NXT TakeOver: In Your House - Top 5 performers at the PPV

#2 Keith Lee (Retained his NXT North American Championship)

Keith Lee delivered a fantastic performance tonight

Tonight, Keith Lee successfully defended his NXT North American Championship against Johnny Gargano in a Single's match that saw a lot of drama and interference in addition to a fantastic performance from both the Superstars involved.

Since turning heel, Johnny Gargano has targeted the entire NXT roster and he had a bone to pick with Keith Lee and Mia Yim. In fact, on the go-home show before the TakeOver: In Your House PPV, Gargano attacked Lee with his car keys and injured his eye.

Tonight, however, none of those antics were enough to stop the 'Moment Maker.' The two Superstars relied on their speed and strength to find dominance in the match. Gargano used his speed to his advantage. On the other hand, Lee - who is deceptively fast for his size - decided to use his strength to keep Gargano from dominating the match.

During several spots in the match, we saw Gargano's series of offenses meeting a single yet effective response from the Champion.

Lee also managed to put Gargano through the plexiglass. Just when the Champion was carrying his opponent back to the ring, Candice LeRae decided to interfere. However, she was stopped by Mia Yim while Gargano once again took out his keys to attack Lee in the other eye.

Following that, Gargano made multiple attempts to pin Lee, but the latter sat back up every single time. Finally, he put an end to Gargano's momentum with a Spirit Bomb and followed it quickly with a powerbomb. He then delivered a Big Bang Catastrophe power slam to pin Gargano and successfully retain his NXT North American Championship.
