Carmelo Hayes and Trick Williams versus Cameron Grimes and Solo Sikoa

Grimes delivered a big boot to Williams and Sikoa flattened hum with a senton to start the match. The NXT North American Champion kept wearing down Williams until Hayes made the tag which Grimes had not seen. This allowed the heels to get back into the match momentarily but Grimes used his quickness to tag in his partner.

Sikoa was in total control of Williams until Grimes managed to hit him with a kick to the back of the head with the referee’s back turned. Williams followed up with a neckbreaker as went into a commercial break. After returning from the break, Sikoa was being dominated by the heel duo.

Sikoa, however, managed to make the tag after taking a decent amount of beating. Grimes took out Hayes with a crossbody and as he seemed to finish the match, Sikoa made the tag which shocked Grimes. In the end, Sikoa pinned Hayes after delivering a frog splash to win the match.
