WWE NXT Results (June 20, 2023): Wes Lee vs. Tyler Bate - North American Title match

Lee started strong, but Bate got a headlock in and took the champ down to the mat before getting a quick two-count from Ali. We got another near fall where it looked like Ali was counting at different speeds for either competitor, and Wes confronted him about it.

The match went outside, and Ali also started the count to 10 late. After a break, Lee tried for a superplex but was dropped outside before Ali aggressively picked them up and told them to continue the match.

Lee came in with the Cardiac Kick, and Ali moved out of the way before Lee got the move and picked up the win.

Back from the break, Brooke could barely stand while Cora attacked her knee again and locked in a single-leg Boston Crab before winning via submission.
