Timothy Thatcher and Ridge Holland met in a grudge match on WWE NXT. Thatcher attacked Holland’s arm and looked to weaken him early in the contest.

He used used every move in the book to try and wear Holland down, but could not keep the big man down for long. The Bothercauser exploded with an overhead suplex.

Holland dropped Thatcher with a slam against the ropes, but the brawler answered back by locking Thatcher in a Boston Crab. The Bothercauser fought out of the submission hold and delivered a huge headbutt followed by the Snow Plow before pinning Thatcher for the win.

Holland, Pete Dunne, Oney Lorcan, and Danny Burch attacked Timothy Thatcher and Tommaso Ciampa after the match.

It looks like the rivalry between the six men is far from over. It was good to see Danny Burch back in the fold, and it seems he and Lorcan will challenge MSK soon.
