Read

Well... it's time for me to call it a night for the time being. Come on back... well, I mean, come back for all sorts of WWE news and features... but I'll also be covering NXT TakeOver: Worlds Collide this Saturday, just like I did NXT tonight. Actually, I'll probably do a better job. I was trying to make dinner for a four year old at the same time as this. But, I stuck with it, because you guys are worth it!

Thanks for tuning in and I'll see you guys soon!

Good night, everybody!

Keith Lee defeats Roderick Strong to win the NXT North American Championship
Matt Riddle and Pete Dunne defeat Imperium to advance to the Dusty Cup finals
Shayna Baszler defeats Shotzi Blackheart
Finn Balor defeats Joaquin Wilde
Toni Storm defeats Io Shirai by DQ
Grizzled Young Veterans defeats the Undisputed ERA to advance to the Dusty Cup finals

Huh.... that was a decent amount of matches,

What a great show. Let's get the match results really quick.

Please hold.

Crowd chanting bad words because, you know, it's a wrestling crowd

PIER SIX BRAWL (whatever that means)!!

And Imperium finally heads to the ring for revenge.

LEE WINS IT! LEE WINS IT!

RESULT: Keith Lee defeats Roderick Strong for the NXT North American Championship

Beth Phoenix with the random Star Wars reference. She's clearly learning how to be an awesome announcer from Mauro

Lee makes it to the ropes.

Ankle lock on Lee by Strong in the middle of the ring.

Lee heads back up for his moonsau... and still gets knocked down.

KEITH, STOP DOING THAT

Lee punches his own ankle back into shape and then CHECKS LEE RIGHT OUT OF THE RING AND INTO THE UE

Second rope Olympic Slam by Strong and LEE STILL KICKS OUT.

Lee is heading up to the top for a moonsau... nah, Strong attacks him before he can.

Adam Cole distracts the ref while Bobby Fish kicks Lee in the ankle.

Strong goes goes the pin but only gets a 2.

Strong hits the ropes and Lee picks him up with one hand, tosses him in the air, and slams him down!

ONE HAND

The break ends and, like clockwork, Lee picks up Strong for a powerslam.

Chances are, Strong is going to keep working over Lee's ankle during the break, so if you need a snack... there you go.

We go to break, but it's one of those picture-and-picture deals, this time with the "Vaping Is Bad" ad with that British magician.

Strong is working on Lee's ankle, although Lee gets a moment of respite by kicking him out of the....

DANG IT, MAURO! I was typing that!

Strong puts Lee's ankle between the steel steps and the ring apron and KICKS it.

AND we're back! And... none of you guys responded. I'm disappointed in all of you.

But not in Keith Lee, who is still in control... well, for a moment.

The UE distract Lee, who steps outside to try and intimidate the other three members. When he gets back in the ring, though, Strong drop kicks him in that injured ankle.

As we go to break, lemme ask ya guys this - what are the odds of Imperium interfering in this match for revenge?

Tweet me at @HeyImKevinSully.

COME ON, DO IT.

Mauro Ranallo with a Ken Jennings/Jeopardy! reference. I love it.

Sincerely... never change, Mauro. I love you.

Announcers make a point to bring up - significantly - that Lee refused medical attention after the attack by the ERA on his ankle last week. Think that'll play a part?

Hey, Keith's Titantron video spelled "Legion" wrong!

Oh, wait.

Commercial break time and then we're on to our main event and... man... it's gonna be so good.

Ha ha ha Dunne said "bro"

I love this team.

Dunne and Riddle celebrate by the Dusty Cup trophy, and the Grizzled Young Veterans come out to, you know, say mean things to them.

That was a hell of a match. I had the hardest time keeping up with it, but it was worth it.

Dunne and Riddle win! And without interference from the Undisputed ERA!

RESULT: Pete Dunne and Matt Riddle defeat Imperium to advance to the Dusty Cup finals

Riddle with the jackhammer, but only gets a 2 count!

Hot tag by Dunne!

Back from break and Imperium is double-teaming the Bruiserweight, as Riddle anxiously attempts a tag,

Dunne tags in Matt "Bo Derek hair" Riddle and keep up the pressure, but Eichner manages to tag in to Barthel.

Dunne and Eichner start the match off, but Fabian tags in Marcel quickly.

Riddle's hair looks dumb.

It's time for the BROserweights (that's what they call themselves) to head to the ring and get going in this Dusty Cup semi-final match,

Tegan Nox and Dakota Kai go head to head next week.

And the team of Matt Riddle and Pete Dunne face Imperium in another Dusty Cup semi-final match.

I wonder if the Undisputed ERA will get involved in that? Nah. Highly unlikely.,

Shotzi goes for a top rope senton but Shayna moves and catches her into the... karakuna?... clutch. Shotzi tries to escape but eventually has to tap.

RESULT: Shayna Baszler defeats Shotzi Blackheart

And Shayna isn't letting go.

Baszler attempts the [Instert Name Here] Clutch, but Blackheart pushes her into the turnbuckles and Shotzi is mounting some really impressive offense here.
