WWE NXT Results (August 12th, 2020): Winners, Grades, and Video Highlights

Tyler Breeze is out for revenge

Tyler Breeze vs Santos Escobar on NXT

Santos Escobar started off the fight strong on NXT, taking Tyler Breeze out with a standing dropkick. As Breeze struggled to stand, Escobar got in his face while laying in some nasty kicks to the chest.

Breeze caught Escobar with a leaping enziguri, but on the floor was met with a low leg tackle. A military press onto the apron and a clothesline rocked Breeze.

Escobar picked Breeze up for the Phantom Driver, but Breeze escaped, shoving the NXT Cruiserweight Champion away. Breeze followed up with flying forearms, rocking Escobar. A Supermodel Kick laid out Escobar, but thanks to Legado Del Fantasma running out, Escobar was able to plant him with the Phantom Driver for the win.

Results: Santos Escobar def. Tyler Breeze via pinfall

Grade: C

After the match, Fandango, one-armed, ran down with a broken broom stick. Though he saved Breeze from a beat down, Legado Del Fantasma looked to continue that attack that started for Fandango last week on NXT.
