We saw another vignette for Karion Kross and Scarlett on NXT, this time with Kross explaining why "terrible people do terrible things." They're not here to shock a system or save anyone. It's time to wake up from the dream, or you stay asleep forever. Tommaso Ciampa was the first, and we know he's not the last. Just like the Psycho Killer, anyone that is unfortunate to meet Kross will Fall and Pray.

A vignette played of Dakota Kai, with the Captain of Team Kick explaining why she turned on Tegan Nox all those months ago and why she's currently working alongside Raquel Gonzalez.

Backstage, Isaiah "Swerve" Scott was interviewed about this upcoming match with Jack Gallagher. If he loses, he's out. However, Swerve wasn't shaken. After all, he was able to take out one of the favorites in the tournament, El Hijo del Fantasma. Jack Gallagher will be no different. In fact, according to Scott, if you went through the tournament and couldn't manage one win, you probably should leave the business for good.

Triple H and Shawn Michaels were backstage, repping the DX gear and music, along with Road Dogg, taking over for William Regal who couldn't be at NXT tonight. Tomorrow is the 25th Anniversary of the first In Your House PPV, which gave HHH a brilliant idea. On June 7th, we'll get NXT TakeOver: In Your House.


Finn Balor vs Cameron Grimes

Cameron Grimes rushed in for an early Cave In. Finn Balor saw it coming, easily avoiding it and taking the fight to Grimes. After a few blows to the body, Balor trapped Grimes with a side headlock.

A penalty kick rolled Grimes into the corner. Grimes responded with a mat slam, taking the former NXT Champion down to rain down elbow shots to the back. Grimes rolled Balor up with the sunset flip, but Balor rolled out for a dropkick to the face. The sling blade was countered, and Grimes planted him with a swinging sidewalk slam for a near fall.

Grimes doubled Balor over with a kitchen sink knee lift. Nasty clotheslines, haymakers and more left Balor dazed. Grimes followed up with a slap to the jaw. It seemed to wake Balor up, who took Grimes down with a double leg takedown and a leaping double stomp to the chest.

Balor crushed Grimes' head into the apron, following up with a penalty kick that nearly sent his head into the stands. As Balor looked on, Damian Priest emerged.

Though he was able to cut the Archer of Infamy off before he could take him out, Priest would still manage to get his pound of flesh. Balor sent Grimes inside and was taken out with Priest's night stick while the ref had his back turned.

Grimes followed up with the Cave In, giving him an incredible upset victory over the Prince.

Results: Cameron Grimes defeated Finn Balor via pinfall.

Grade: A-

Following the match, Damian Priest drove Balor's face into a chair with the Reckoning. He then revealed that he was, in fact, the man who attacked Balor three weeks ago on NXT.
