NXT North American Championship: Ricochet vs. Johnny Gargano

These two are no strangers, having met many times on the Indy scene. Impressive moonsault by Ricochet from the apron to the outside. Hurricanrana off the top rope by Gargano and Ricochet somehow lands his feet. Ricochet flies over the rope and steel post to take out Gargano. He follows with a 450 splash for a two count in an insane combo. What a match and Gargano starts removing the pad on the outside as he can’t defeat Ricochet. Gargano goes for the DDT on the concrete floor, but changes his mind. Gargano snaps and drops Ricochet with a suplex on the exposed floor. Gargano follows with a DDT in the ring to win the title.

Winner: Jonny Gargano to become the new NXT North American Champion


NXT Women’s Championship: Shayna Baszler vs. Bianca Belair

On the outside, Baszler uses Belair’s hair to toss her into the steel post. Baszler focuses on the arm after stomping on it. Belair leaves a mark after whipping Baszler with the hair. The referee is down and Baszler has the three count. Marina Shafir & Jessamyn Duke get involved and Belair fights them off. Baszler gets the choke, but his shaken off. Belair somewhat botches a 450 splash off the top rope and another choke. Belair hangs on for a decent amount of time before passing out.

Winner: Shayna Baszler to remain NXT Women’s Champion
