Oba Femi, Riley Osborne advance in WWE NXT Men’s Breakout Tournament

The first two men have advanced in the Men’s Breakout Tournament.

Oba Femi was the first to advance on Tuesday’s NXT, defeating Myles Borne with a powerbomb. Later in the show Riley Osborne advanced, defeating Keanu Carver following a shooting star press.

With the win, Osborne will now face the winner between Lexis King and Dion Lennox in the semifinals. Femi will face the winner between Tavion Heights and Luca Crusifino.

Trey Bearhill had originally been announced as a participant in the tournament. An angle took place prior to the first tournament match where Lexis King attacked Bearhill with a steel chair. After King gloated to Ava about what he had done backstage, Ava said that the other participants in the tournament wanted to face him, and as a result replaced Bearhill in the tournament.

The Women’s Breakout Tournament concluded back on the second night of Halloween Havoc on October 31. Lola Vice defeated Kelani Jordan to win the tournament, earning a future NXT Women’s Championship match.
