The NXT North American title match and the Second Chance Gauntlet match took centre stage tonight

Kushida vs Joaquin Wilde

Kushida took Wilde to the mat, proving his dominance and keeping the former DJ off his feet. In an incredible move, he turned Wilde inside out and popped him up for an armbar that would've put Wilde away if he'd not been able to reach the ropes immediately.

A great striking sequence lit up Wilde as we cut to commercial.

However, back from the break Wilde was able to turn it around with a floating reverse DDT and a knee to the jaw. Kushida landed a nasty kick on Wilde, but because he was worried about his safety, Wilde was able to catch him with a jawbreaker.

Kushida bounced off the ropes for the handspring back elbow, though, and took Wilde out with the cross armbreaker.

Results: Kushida defeated Joaquin Wilde via submission.

Grade: B+

Wilde and Kushida shared some mutual respect with one another as we cut away. Moments later, we saw Wilde getting interviewed in the parking lot. However, he was kidnapped, much like Raul Mendoza last month, by a group of masked men.
