Chelsea Green & Ethan Page vs Thea Hail & Joe Hendry
During the crazy AAA Mixed Tag Team Title match, Thea Hail had Chelsea Green in a Kimura Lock. But Ethan Page, who holds the NXT North American Title, saw what was happening. He chucked Joe Hendry at them, breaking up the hold. This gave Green the chance to nail Hail with the Unpretty-Her for the win, letting the sneaky duo keep their titles.
Winner: Still AAA Mixed Tag Team Champions, Ethan Page & Chelsea Green via Pinfall
Blake Monroe (c) vs Sol Ruca: For the WWE NXT Women’s North American Championship
Fast chain wrestling was the opening of the match between Ruca and Blake Monroe, but soon after Monroe managed to control the situation by using a hair pull. Ruca fired back with a step-up enzuigiri, dropkicks, and a spinning faceplant, however, it was Monroe who regained the momentum with a SlingBlade and a spinning sidewalk slam. Monroe continually attacked Ruca’s left leg, tying it around the ring post and applying several single-leg crabs.
Ruca came back with punches, a release German suplex, missile dropkick, and a running knee strike. Unfortunately for Ruca, she was able to gain only a little momentum before Monroe countered by pulling her off the top rope and intensifying her attack on the injured knee. Ruca hit a SuperKick and a stunning Orihara Moonsault to the outside, but Monroe was quick to respond with a chop block, took off Ruca’s knee brace, and ruthlessly assaulted the bare leg.
Once again Ruca was caught in the single-leg crab and this time she did not give up. Zaria seeing Ruca in excruciating pain and unable to get out of the hold, threw the towel in, thus the referee was obliged to stop the match.
Winner: Blake Monroe (Technical Forfeit) – still NXT Women’s North American Champion.
DarkState (c) vs. Je’Von Evans & Leon Slater For The WWE NXT Tag Team Championship
At the height of the action, Je’Von Evans accidentally showered down on his own buddy, TNA X-Division Winner Leon Slater. This enabled DarkState’s Dion Lennox and Osiris Griffin to use the Doomsday Device to defeat their opponents and successfully defend the NXT Tag Team Championships.
Winner: Still WWE NXT Tag Team Champions, DarkState via Pinfall
Jacy Jayne def Tatum Paxley
Paxley and Jayne begin the match with a tie-up, but Jayne quickly takes control with strikes and quick counters. Paxley comes back with kicks, a crossbody, and a moonsault to the outside. Jayne continues the fight with a cannonball senton, hip attack, and suplex, and then keeps Paxley down with stomps and submissions.
Both women trade big moves: superkicks, enzuigiris, a top-rope hurricanrana, and an avalanche fisherman’s neckbreaker. The situation escalates as Fatal Influence and The Culling intervene. After Dame’s big boot knocks Paxley down, Jayne follows up with the Rolling Encore for the victory and the new NXT Women’s Champion title.
Winner: New WWE NXT Women’s Champion, Jacy Jayne via Pinfall
