PRIEST WINS IT! WOW!

Result: Damien Priest defeats Timothy Thatcher

Priest with a Flatliner!

Thatcher has a single leg crab on Priest, but Priest fights his way out... only to fall into a UFC style back armbar.

Priest still gets a break.

Thatcher and Priest are putting on a clinic

NEXT WEEK's #WWENXT is going to be GOOD.

NXT North American Champion Damien Priest defends said championship against grumpy guy you see on the bus Timothy Thatcher

#WWENXT's roster is too stacked to do a regular No. 1 Contender's match for @FinnBalor's #NXTTitle.

Let @RealKingRegal present to you the FIRST-EVER #GauntletEliminator Match: pic.twitter.com/1YSXMxS6I5

OK.... Regal introduces a new match called the Gauntlet Eliminator - kind of like a Gauntlet Match mixed with the Royal Rumble - to determine who faces Finn Balor at Takeover.

Man, this brand is awesome.

.@NXTCiampa will be seeing @JakeAtlas_ & @KORcombat (?!?) NEXT WEEK.

Meanwhile, Jake Atlas is interviewed backstage about his challenge against Tomasso Ciampa... when the Black Heart attacks him from behind. As the fight is broken up, who comes to Atlas's defense but... Kyle O'Reilly?

That's interesting.

Strong takes a chair shot to Dain, and Dain and Drake get the DQ win.

Result: Drake Maverick and Killian Dain defeat the Undisputed ERA

Killian tosses Maverick into the ring to "help" him, telling him to take the loss "like a man"

As the Irishman walks to the back, the UE insults him and Dain hits the ring to take them out.

William Regal approaches Killian Dain backstage and apparently talks Dain to head to the ring to support his tag partner.

Kain is shown backstage, laughing at the beating Maverick is taking by UE

No @KillianDain. No problem?

It's all up to @WWEMaverick in this newly-developed #HandicapMatch on #WWENXT. pic.twitter.com/ebOkIoXbNQ

How much you wanna bet either Bobby or Roderick, which beating on Drake, say something mean about Killian and that makes him come out?

Maverick comes out, but Dain isn't coming out.

Roddy Strong and Robert Fish of the Undisputed ERA make their way to the ring to take on... well... I guess it looks like Drake Mericak, it seems.

"I'm not your tag team partner and I'm not your friend. Tonight, you're out there by yourself. Good luck." - @KillianDain @WWEMaverick needs to go out at alone NEXT on #WWENXT. 🙏 pic.twitter.com/ywAnpX8Phg

Kacy and Kayden offer some respectful fistbumps. Jesse returns the gesture but Xia Li ducks out, not having any of it.

Meanwhile, Drake Maverick finds Killian Dain backstage, but it looks like Dain wants nothing to do with him,

Kacy and Kayden with the double-team move and get the win!

Result: Kayden Carter and Kacy Catanzaro defeat Xia Li and Jesse Kamea.

Kayden Carter and my friend Kacy Catanzaro!

Jesse Kamea and Xia Li are teaming up to take on... well, I guess we'll find out

NOT. A. FLUKE! @MmmGorgeous & @WWEFandango prove the doubters wrong, again, and defeat @Marcel_B_WWE & @FabianAichner to retain their #NXTTagTitles! #AndStill #WWENXT pic.twitter.com/R4f8xcPpEa

Imperium goes for the European Bomb on Breeze, but 'Dango makes the save and after a hurricanrana....

RESULT: Breezango defeats Imperium

This match is incredible.

Fandango goes for the Alabama Jam but misses! Imperium goes for the follow-up pin but Fandango kicks out!

We're back from break and Fandango manages to get free with a discus clothesline and gets the hot tag! Breeze is in!

The wait is over @WWENXT

Fandango has been taking a TON of punishment from Imperium. Dango has managed to kick out of every pin attempt, but just can't take into Breeze.

Commercial time.

No. 1 Contender Battle Royal for NXT Women's Championship set for next week

.@JohnnyGargano IS going to get a new TV, and he's going to fit @TeganNoxWWE_ with the bill.

He's VERY SERIOUS about this. #WWENXT @CandiceLeRae pic.twitter.com/wwGOyUuxqZ

Imperium are their opponents, but the Europeans aren't wasting any time and charge the ring.

Breezango return as the Fashion Police as the prepare to defend their NXT Tag Team Championships!
