Cameron Grimes had been picking up some impressive victories on NXT since the show moved to the USA Network, but the Superstar finally met his match in 'The King of Bros.'

Matt Riddle took to the ring to engage in an extremely physical match with Grimes. The bout displayed both men’s strong points. Grimes finally had a longer match on television, which is sure to be good for him. After the two had an extended match, Riddle sealed the victory with the BroDerek to the excitement of the fans in attendance at Full Sail University.

The post-match segment was also well booked, as Riddle tried to bump fists with Grimes, who refused to do so. Riddle then bumped fists with Tyler Bate who was in the crowd, but Grimes pushed him away, leading to a Bop and Bang from Bate to Grimes.

This was a good way to further integrate NXT UK, and also gives fans another heated rivalry to look forward to. Grimes and Bate could be excellent, as both men have extremely unique fighting styles.

The win also helped Riddle move further in the Black and Gold brand and become one of the most dominant athletes in WWE today.
