WWE NXT Grades (March 25, 2020): Superstar returns from injury in dominant fashion, new tag team debuts 

#5 Oney Lorcan & Danny Burch vs Shane Thorne and Brendan Vink

Shane Thorne and Brendan Vink did put up a good fight

The Brit-Am Brawlers, Lorcan & Burch took on two Superstars from Down Under, Shane Thorne & Brendan Vink on tonight's NXT. This marked Vink's second appearance in a week as he also competed this Monday on RAW when he and Thorne took on RAW Tag Team Champions - The Street Profits.

Few teams can much the quick-paced and hard-hitting offense of the Brit-Am Brawlers and Thorne & Vink found it out in painful fashion. However, Vink who was the largest Superstar in the match almost got the win for his team as he proved to be a deciding factor and almost ended things for Lorcan & Burch when he took out Lorcan with a big Uranage.

In the end, it would be the Brit-Am Brawlers who came out as winners as they tapped out both Vink and Thorne to get the submission victory.

#7 Matt Riddle vs Roderick Strong

Riddle overcame Strong in a heavy-hitting clash

One half of The BroserWeights and NXT Tag Team Champion, Matt Riddle, took on The Undisputed Era's Roderick Strong in the final match of the night. The two Superstars share a lot of animosity between them and have faced each other in the past also.

Both Superstars lighted each other up with kicks and chops to their chests and counter-attacks. Both men used everything that they had on their arsenal but in the end, it was Riddle who walked out as the winner after he nailed The Messiah of the Backbreaker with the Bro Derek.

However, The Original Bro didn't get much time to celebrate as he was sneak attacked by two new Superstars Rinku Singh and Saurav Gurjar. After laying waste to Riddle, Malcolm Bivens came out to the ring and introduced himself as Singh and Gurjar's manager.
