Damian Priest vs Bronson Reed on NXT

Damian Priest had the upper hand early on, almost manhandling AUSZilla. Bronson Reed shook off Priest's headlock and sent NXT's Archer of Infamy to the mat with shoulder tackles. Priest pelted Reed with kicks and a leaping elbow, taking Reed off his feet.

Reed wasn't on his back long but stood up into an enziguri. They traded suplex attempts, but Reed was able to plant Priest with a DDT. A big running senton flattened Priest. However, Priest caught Reed with a leaping flatliner and rocked the big man with a nasty striking combination.

Priest hit a springboard somersault senton to take out Reed. On their way to the NXT North American Championship, both men were pulling out the big guns. Priest managed to drop Reed with a massive Broken Arrow, but couldn't get the win.

Reed countered another Broken Arrow, turning Priest over with a suplex. He was unable to hit the Tsunami, though, as Priest just barely rolled out of the way. Still, he picked up a big win, countering the Reconing with a jackknife pin.

Results: Bronson Reed defeated Damian Priest via pinfall on NXT.

Grade: A
