We saw Dexter Lumis backstage drawing more art ahead of his match with Johnny Gargano on NXT tonight. Will Lumis finally win the heart of Indi Hartwell?
Ridge Holland w/Pete Dunne and Oney Lorcan vs Ikemen Jiro on NXT
This was Ridge Holland's first match back with NXT since his nasty injury last year. Holland hammered Ikemen Jiro with a nasty uppercut, but was surprised by Jiro's right hands. Still, he shrugged them off and sent him to the floor before pouncing the 205 Live star into the plexiglass.
At that point, Jiro was done, but Holland wasn't done. A high-angle exploder suplex dumped Jiro on his head, and Holland tore the jacket off. A pair of double-arm trapped belly-to-belly suplexes left Jiro in a bad way. Holland scopped Jiro up for an Emerald Flowsion for an easy victory.
Results: Ridge Holland defeated Ikemen Jiro via pinfall on NXT.
Grade: C
NXT's Bruiserweight Pete Dunne picked up the mic and said "everyone thinks they're bad until a real bad man steps in the room." Dunne said they were the three most dangerous men in NXT and dared anyone to challenge them.
Franky Monet and Jessi Kamea lost last week, and Franky was furious. She said that Jessi and "Suit Man" Robert Stone were used to being losers, but she wasn't. Things needed to change, and they could take it or leave it.
