The NXT North American Qualifiers got intense; What happened to Mercedes Martinez?

Legado Del Fantasma may have met their match

We got a great hype package for Finn Balor and Velveteen Dream. Balor said that Dream has a lot of talent, but he'll never be able to top The Prince. They'll face off later on in the final NXT North American Qualifier.

"You kept getting chance after chance after chance, and in my book, you failed." @FinnBalor has some words for his 2nd chance opponent, @DreamWWE. #WWENXT pic.twitter.com/lzfa0wSbBb

Legado Del Fantasma vs Breezango & Isaiah "Swerve" Scott on NXT

All six men started things off with a brawl, leading to Fandango and Raul Mendoza in the ring. Mendoza was able to get to Joaquin Wilde, but a dive from the top was countered. Fandango hung Wilde up as Breeze tagged in, with Breezango meeting in the middle with a pair of boots.

Breezango laid out Wilde and Mendoza on the floor. Santos Escobar went for a suicide dive, but Isaiah "Swerve" Scott caught him mid dive with a kick to the jaw.

Back from the break, though, Wilde had Fandango on the ropes. Escobar and Mendoza tagged in, slamming Wilde on Fandango for a two-count. Legado Del Fantasma worked over Fandango in their corner.

Fandango would eventually make it to Swerve, who came in like a house on fire. Though he was able to take out Mendoza and Wilde, the NXT Cruiserweight Champion caught him with a knee to the jaw.

However, somehow, Breeze had tagged Swerve earlier, though the camera never caught it. So when Legado Del Fantasma hit Swerve with their finish, it didn't count.

Santos Escobar managed to pick up the win, still, by dropping Breeze with the Phantom Driver for the win on NXT.

Results: Legado Del Fantasma defeated Breezango & Isaiah "Swerve" Scott via pinfall.

Grade: B-
