Eric Young vs Jack Gallagher- NXT Championship Tournament 1st Round Match
Eric Young, the leader of the new group called Sanity, was accompanied by stable mates Killian Dain and Nikki Cross as he faced the Extraordinary Gentleman, Jack Gallagher. From the start, the numbers game played a huge factor, as Dain and Cross got involved whenever their leader was in trouble. Gallagher did his best, but simply couldn't overcome the disadvantage, and fell prey to a vicious neckbreaker that sent EY through to the next round.
Winner: Eric Young
A New Force Debuts
Next week on NXT, we will see the debut of the much hyped Authors of Pain, as they face Zack Ryder and Mojo Rawley, the Hype Bros, in tag team action.
Natalya vs Carmella
These two met back in February on Main Event, with Natalya walking away victorious. Though Carmella was eager to reverse her fortune, she ran straight into a brick wall. The Queen of Harts was completely superior on this night, and forced a submission with the Sharpshooter.
Winner: Natalya
Drew Gulak vs Hideo Itami- NXT Championship Tournament 1st Round Match
This was Hideo Itami's return to NXT, and the Full Sail crowd seemed very happy to see him back. Drew Gulak looked to spoil the party, as the Human Torture Device dished out punishment early. Hideo responded in kind with his incredible variety of strikes, and things got ugly quickly. A Busaiki Knee laid Gulak out, but the International Sensation chose not to go for the cover. This viciousness nearly cost him, as Drew looked in a Dragon Sleeper. Hideo fought to the ropes, and scored big with a GTS to pick up the win.
Winner: Hideo Itami
