WWE NXT Results (August 5th, 2020): Winners, Grades, and Video Highlights 

The North American Title picture has changed

William Regal made an announcement regarding the NXT North American Championship Ladder Match. Unfortunately, Dexter Lumis will not be medically cleared. Going forward, the four competitors that aren't pinned/submitted in the Triple Threat matches will compete in two singles matches. The winners will be added to the bout at NXT TakeOver: XXX.

Legado Del Fantasma entered the building, with Fandango in-tow. The NXT Cruiserweight Champion says that their group is all about honoring the tradition of Lucha Libre, but Breezango openly mock everything in professional wrestling, including Lucha Libre.

They looked to send a message by brutalizing Fandango. Tyler Breeze rushed in to make the save, but was laid out by the numbers game. Santos Escobar turned his attention to Isaiah "Swerve" Scott, claiming that this was what was in store if he continued to speak his name.

Damian Priest was asked about the NXT North American Championship match. Priest said that it was unfortunate about Lumis, but it didn't really matter, because he's the favorite going into the match. Bronson Reed came around to wish Priest luck, leading to them talking trash in the parking lot. Next week, we'll see them face off in a one-on-one match.

Tegan Nox vs Indi Hartwell on NXT

Tegan Nox shut Hartwell up with a right to the jaw as Pat McAfee joined Tom Phillips on commentary. Hartwell dropped Nox face first on the turnbuckle and followed up with a sidewalk slam.

A big boot rocked Nox, but she was able to kick out. During the match, McAfee was asked about the issue he had with Adam Cole on his show last week, and said it was a simple misunderstanding.
