Jake Atlas winning over Isaiah 'Swerve' Scott in the previous episode of NXT was nothing less than a shocker. Virtually nobody expected him to pull off a victory over the former Cruiserweight Championship contender.

Resultingly, the two engaged in another contest this week, this time Scott coming on top after some pretty good back and forth action. The rear headbutt used by him during the ending stages of the encounter had displeased Atlas.

While some may criticize the 50-50 booking method the creative has adopted in this rivalry, it has opened the door for a rubber match between the two Superstars sometime down the line on NXT. Especially after Atlas refused to shake hands with Scott post-match, it became clear that the next bout will be wrestled with an added streak of aggression.

No matter which Superstar comes up on top during their rubber match, both the guys are sure to be elevated and would be viable contenders for the Cruiserweight Championship.
