NXT Live results - October 21, 2017

Saturday's show in Aiken, South Carolina brought an action-packed display from WWE's developmental territory.

They were set to see SaNITy and The Undisputed Era lock horns in the ring. But that wasn't the only amazing match on the card as they were going to get a preview of the NXT Title match at NXT TakeOver: WarGames.

Fabian Aichner vs No Way Jose

No Way Jose is probably the best way to start any pro wrestling show. He brings a freshness and charisma that really gets the crowd going. He took on Fabian Aichner to open the Aiden show and the people were enthused with everything he did.

The finish saw No Way Jose winning clean to the delight of the NXT Universe.

Winner: No Way Jose via pinfall

Johnny Gargano vs Dan Matha

Johnny Wrestling took on Dan Matha next on the card. The massive Matha was no match for Gargano's supreme wrestling abilities. In the end, Johnny Gargano won in a clean fashion and he was super popular in the process.

Winner: Johhny Gargano vs pinfall

The night only got better

The Uni — The Undisputed Era mean serious business

Lacey Evans vs Sarah Logan

Lacey Evans is a US Armed Forces veteran and devoted wife and mother but that won't stop her from doing her thing in the ring. She took on Sarah Logan in Aiken and after her victory, she celebrated in a very special fashion.

Winner: Lacey Evans via pinfall

Roderick Strong vs Hideo Itami

Roderick Strong has been impressing audiences all over since he first made his jump to NXT and brought his A-Game to Aiken when he faced off against Hideo Itami.

Hideo Itami, the man who is formally known as Kenta probably should be on the WWE main roster at this point along with his NXT class contemporaries like Kevin Owens, Sami Zayn, and Neville... okay, nevermind that last one.

Unfortunately, ill-timed injuries kept Hideo Itami in WWE's developmental territory. Well, Strong sure knew how he would use it to his benefit.

Winner: Roderick Strong via pinfall

Adam Cole, Kyle O'Reilly, and Bobby Fish vs NXT Tag Team Champions Eric Young, Alexander Wolfe, and Killian Dain

This epic matchup was one for the ages. O'Reilly and Fish are bound to tackle SaNITy for the NXT Tag Team Championships sooner or later. But these six guys locked horns in a tag match between factions in Aiken.

SaNITy was no match as compared to the ROH alumni on Saturday night, but things could be very different at NXT TakeOver: WarGames.

Winners: The Undisputed Era (Adam Cole, Kyle O'Reilly, and Bobby Fish)

Drew McIntyre didn't show up to lose his title

The Velveteen Dream vs Kassius Ohno

A lot has happened for The Velveteen Dream since he was just another WWE hopeful on Tough Enough. But he's done some pretty great things so far in NXT and is experiencing a nice little push in the process.

The Velveteen Dream emerged victorious against Kassius Ohno in Aiken. Ohno is another guy who really deserves better but he's also extremely good at making others shine in the ring which is why this match was so effective.

Winner: The Velveteen Dream via pinfall

Nikki Cross vs Sonya Deville

Nikki Cross is one of the most strangely magnetic entertainers in NXT at the moment and oozes her psychotic energy out of every pore. Sonya Deville tried her best to defeat Cross in Aiken, but in the end, she was no match for the woman crazy enough to be in SaNITy.

Winner: Nikki Cross via pinfall.

Drew McIntyre vs Andrade Cien Almas (NXT Title Match)

These two are set to do battle at NXT TakeOver: WarGames for the NXT Title, but the fans in Aiken got a nice preview of that huge match.

Andrade Cien Almas is a star alongside Zelina Vega and the two have some cool things in store for them. Almas' new heel persona is really paying off for him in a big way. But Drew McIntyre's mere presence is unmatchable.

In the end, McIntyre shut down Almas with a Claymore Kick.

Winner: Drew McIntyre via pinfall
