NXT was in Cocoa, Florida tonight in front of a packed crowd of 350 people.
– Heavy Machinery defeated The Ealy Twins
This was a hoss match. The teams clobbered each other until Heavy Machinery finally hit their double team finish to win it.

– Oney Lorcan defeated Dan Matha
Matha had his way with Lorcan early on, but Lorcan fought back with a series of running uppercuts and a running neckbreaker for the win.
– Elias Samson defeated Buddy Murphy
Murphy had new music and an energetic babyface attitude. He’s been great on the live events lately, but The Drifter won after hitting a draping DDT.
– Adrian Jaoude cut an in-ring promo about how he came from a family of fighters. He was interrupted by Tino Sabbatelli and Riddick Moss, who were about to rough him up before Tye Dillinger made the save, leading to the next match.

– Tye Dillinger & Adrian Jaoude defeated Tino Sabbatelli & Riddick Moss
The crowd was all over Sabbatelli and Moss. The match got a lot of time and the finish saw Dillinger take the hot tag and clean house, leading to a Tye Breaker attempt which was countered into a roll through, which Dillinger countered into a sharpshooter attempt before his leg gave way. The crowd was scared, but Dillinger was able to apply the crossface for the submission victory and a huge reaction.

– NXT Women’s Champion Asuka & Heidi Lovelace defeated Macey Evans & Mandy Rose
Asuka took the hot tag and ran wild. Lovelace did her version of a step-up enzuigiri to wipe out Rose and allow Asuka to hit a knockout kick of her own to Evans for the pin.
– Aleister Black defeated Andrade “Cien” Almas
Great match; would like to see this one make TV. Heel Almas is excellent and Black has such intriguing combat mannerisms. It was hard-hitting and different than the usual NXT live event match ups. Black won with a spin kick to the head as Almas charged at him with the running knees.

– SAnitY (Alexander Wolfe, Killian Dain & Nikki Cross) defeated Angelo Dawkins, Montez Ford & Liv Morgan
There was total chaos in this match with action all over the place. Dain was a force when in the ring. Cross hit a fisherman neckbreaker for the win before the faces cleaned house after the match to send everyone home happy.
