Cedric Alexander vs Drew Gulak vs Mustafa Ali vs Oney Lorcan- Cruiserweight Championship Match

Cedric Alexander and Mustafa Ali provided a lot of the highlights for this match, both getting close to claiming the championship. Oney Lorcan got a couple of near falls as well, and he managed to clear the ring of Alexander and Ali. But it was Drew Gulak who took advantage of the opportunity, smoothly applying the Dragon Sleeper to Lorcan, who tapped just moments before Alexander could make the save. 

Winner and the NEW Cruiserweight Champion: Drew Gulak


Hideo Itami vs Velveteen Dream

Hideo Itami was determined to use his lethal strikes to lay waste to NXT's newest phenom, the Velveteen Dream. But the Dream walked the walk on this night, picking up a huge win over the former NXT Champion with a Purple Rainmaker. 

Winner: Velveteen Dream


The Undisputed Era(c) vs The Ascension- NXT Tag Team Championship Match

This was a battle of styles, as the strikes and submissions of Kyle O'Reilly and Bobby Fish clashed with the power of Konnor and Viktor. The Ascension received a major assist, as during the match, SAnitY arrived to pick a fight with the champions. Distracted, O'Reilly fell prey to the Fall of Man, crowning new champions and adding fire to the feud between these two factions. 

Winners and the NEW NXT Tag Team Champions: The Ascension


Carmella(c) vs Toni Storm- NXT Women's Championship Match

Carmella was forced to defend her championship against the woman with more momentum than any on NXT, Toni Storm. The intelligence of the champion kept her alive, as Storm Zero connected but Carmella found the bottom rope. The Princess of the Staten Island went to every cheap trick in the book, eye gouging and choking Storm, before applying the Code of Silence. But Toni persevered, hitting another Storm Zero to finally claim the championship. 

Winner and the NEW NXT Women's Champion: Toni Storm


Apollo Crews(c) vs Lars Sullivan- NXT Championship Match

Most of Apollo Crews' power was negated in this match as he faced the behemoth known as Lars Sullivan. With three new champions crowned tonight, Sullivan looked to be the fourth, slowly taking Crews apart. Crews looked to take the fight to the outside, but that proved to be a mistake, as Sullivan was able to connect with the Freak Accident on the floor. But the challenger was far from finished, as he was determined to take the champion out for good. Lars looked for another Freak Accident, but Apollo countered. In an unbelievable feat of strength, Apollo lifted Lars over his head, and dropped him down with a Gorilla Press slam! Then he followed it up with a beautiful standing moonsault, but was too exhausted to make the cover. Both men battled to a standing position, as Sullivan opened Crews up with multiple right hands. In a last gasp, Crews shocked Sullivan and everyone in Chicago, rolling up the challenger with a small package, and stealing the win!

Winner and still NXT Champion: Apollo Crews

What does it take to be the best? It's a question that's been asked many times, by many people. To many, the answer is complicated; tonight, it is quite simple.

The Route of Life

dedicated to my hermits, who changed my life Ch 1 My Hermit crabs Hermit crabs are sometimes hard to take care of. Especially when you never had a hermit. Last Sunday afternoon I got 2 Hermit crabs. Their names are Crabbe and Goyle. I have talked with many sales people. The first Petco we went to (where we got the hermits and their things) seemed to have no idea on the subject. So we ended up going to Dolphin Pet Village. They were more experience at the subject. Now we have some of the things we will need. Last week, I went to a second Petco. There we got a cuttlebone, which is the bone of a fish. Now they look happy. Have a good day Hermit Crabs! Ch 2 Curious Crab The week before last week, my mom looked into my crabitat and found that one of my crabs had climbed one of my fake trees. It was on the top branch. Later, when I was changing to get ready for bed, the crab fell out of his branch. I hope he is okay. He’s definitely starting to look okay. How funny do you think that story is...
