Legado Del Fantasma w/Santos Escobar vs Breezango on NXT

NXT original Fandango took the fight to Raul Mendoza early on. He tagged out to Tyler Breeze, hanging Mendoza up for a pair of boots to the head.

Mendoza rocked Breeze with a sickening shining wizard, and tagged out to Joaquin Wilde. Breezango traded the upper hand with Legado Del Fantasma several times, leading to LDF finally bringing Fandango to their corner.

Fandango fell to the floor after he was knocked off the top of the turnbuckle, sending him down with a loud thud as we cut to break.

When we returned, Breeze was able to make the tag and lock Wilde in a single leg Boston Crab.

Wilde broke away but was rocked with a sidekick. Mendoza was able to break up the pinfall just in time. With Fandango taken out on the floor, Legado Del Fantasma was able to wipe Breeze out with their finish.

Results: Legado del Fantasma def. Breezango via pinfall.

Grade: B

NXT Cruiserweight Champion Santos Escobar grabbed a headset, demanding to know where Jordan Devlin was. Devlin's music hit right on cue, with the true NXT Cruiserweight Champion answering the challenge.

The Irish Ace of NXT revealed to the world last week that he'd be coming here to call out Santos Escobar, and unlike the Legado del Fantasma leader, he came here alone.

Devlin stated that what Escobar was holding was nothing more than a toy, a replica of the real thing. The latter claimed he'd redefined the definition of a cruiserweight, and proved himself time and time again.

What makes Jordan Devlin different? Devlin only had a belt because everyone forgot he had it in the first place.

He laid down the challenge for NXT TakeOver: Stand & Deliver, and was dropped by Devlin with the Devlin Side.
