Priest nails Dunne with the Razor's Edge, and still only manages to get a two count of his own.

Dunne gets in an armbar, but Priest manages to block it.

Dunne hits a Liger Bomb on Priest, but still only gets a two-count.

What does Pete Dunne have against fingers?

High risk. High reward. It's what The #BruiserWeight does.#WWENXT #DunneVsPriest @PeteDunneYxB pic.twitter.com/7T326LA8YE

Superplex by Dunne! Now the two are trading chops.

This is one of those matches where, if you sneeze, control changes between the two wrestlers, like, seven times.

Except for that whole "raise my arm up and down a few times" thing he does. That's kind of dumb.

I joke, but I actually like this guy.

Damien Priest! His thing is he pretends to shoot arrows!

Next week! Rhea Ripley vs Bianca Belair!

Pete Dunne and Damien Priest which... look, whether you like the guy or not, that's an awesome ring name... are getting ten minutes to wrap up the show.

Oh, you want to mess with @PeteDunneYxB?

Dain, who was still making his way to the back, gets in Dunne's face because, you know, he's mean.

Dunne responds by doing that thing he does where he hurts your fingers.

Right. There's no way that will end badly.

After getting a video clip of the neeeeeeeeeewwwwwwwwwww Crusierweight Champion, Lio Rush, it's time to introduce the Bruiserweight, Pete Dunne.

Absolute devastation.

...and @KillianDain is just getting started. #WWENXT pic.twitter.com/7WTrY3z8Jo

Dain puts BOA into a vicious looking Camel Clutch and BOA submits. Dain holds the move even after the bell because he's mean.

Result: Killian Dain defeats BOA

Actually, three or... as Mauro calls them, the "Unholy Trinity of Vader Bombs"

Vader Bomb on BOA... nope, make that two.

BOA begins the match with a pretty aggressive flurry of offense, but Dain gets control and, let's be fair, he's probably keeping it.

Kain hates the English because of The Troubles in Northern Ireland and he demonstrates this by.... attacking the Chinese guy?

It looks like we're gonna get Finn Balor's re-debut on NXT next week.

BOA is now taking on Killian Dain. Which probably won't end well for him, if we're being honest with ourselves.

Wow!!
Shining wizard with metal knee brace!! 👍 #NXTonUSA

Damian Priest apparently needs the help of two ladies to get his jacket on.

Man, Shayna is really underrated on the mic.

"Let's ask your friend Dakota Kai what it's like to be in the ring with me."

Tegan Nox is about to talk about how great it seels to be back, but the MMA Horsewomen don't want to hear it, so they come on out.

Dakota Kai is out there, too, by the way.

They keep saying "shiniest of wizards" and it's really weird.

Nox now with a flurry of offense, including a flying crossbody and a European uppercut and then Shining Wizard time for the win!

Result: Tegan Nox defeats Taynara

Taynara has control using those Judo skills she learned in what I assume were Judo lessons.

The Brazilian goes for a pin. 2 count.
