It's time. Keith Lee's journey to the NXT Championship started back at Survivor Series when he stole the show with Roman Reigns in a fifteen-man elimination match. At Great American Bash, he put his NXT North American Championship on the line for the opportunity to become the first man to hold both titles.
Adam Cole, arguably the greatest NXT Champion of all time, wouldn't go down without a fight. The Great American Bash's main event certainly lived up to the hype, but who would walk away as Champ Champ, Bay-Bay?

NXT Great American Bash Winner Take All Match: Keith Lee (NXT North American Champion) vs Adam Cole (NXT Champion)
Adam Cole latched on a side headlock at the start, but Keith Lee easily broke the grip. The big man trapped Cole in an arm wrench, taking Cole to his knees. Cole responded with a kick, but was caught again.
Lee sent Cole to the floor with a shoulder block. He followed up with the Pounce, but Cole sidestepped, launching Lee through the plexiglass! Cole upped the pressure, driving Lee into the steps and ring post. Back inside, a big kick laid out the Limitless One.
Cole dropped Lee with a huge neckbreaker. However, after antagonizing Lee a bit too much, the big man laid into Cole with a series of clotheslines and a running forearm. Lee planted him with a Tour of the Islands, getting a two-count.
Lee scaled the turnbuckle, stating "I must break him." Cole caught him moving up, taking his legs out and hitting an elevated backstabber. Lee kicked out at one-nearly launching Cole through the ropes. Another big shot from Lee left Cole out on the apron. Lee followed that up with a deadlift suplex over the ropes!
Cole nearly lost his prized possession at Great American Bash but kicked out at two-and-a-half. A destructive Spirit Bomb nearly sent Cole through the mat. Again, he kept the fight going, just barely getting his finger on the rope.
The Pounce finally connected, as did a hellacious one-handed chokeslam! Cole still kicked out! Cole was left out on his back on the mat, and couldn't avoid a massive moonsault from Lee. And yet, he kicked out. Cole was picked up for the Big Bang Catastrophe, but the longest-reigning NXT Champion landed on his feet.
A pair of superkicks couldn't take out Lee, but two kicks to the knees did. The Last Shot connected, and Keith Lee powered out! The NXT North American Champion delivered a cataclysmic clothesline, turning Cole inside out and dumping him on his head.
Cole still, somehow, was able to get to the top for the Panama Sunrise, which still couldn't keep the big man down. Keith Lee was determined to leave Great American Bash as the new NXT Champion!
Three superkicks rocked Lee's jaw, but Cole just couldn't put Lee away. Another Last Shot left Lee down on the mat, but Cole knew he'd need to do a bit more. Setting up for one final Panama Sunrise, Lee countered with the Spirit Bomb! After that, the Big Bang Catastrophe drove Cole square into the middle of the ring! 1-2-3!!!
Results: Keith Lee defeated Adam Cole via pinfall at Great American Bash.
