NXT Championship

Tyson Kidd vs Adrian Neville (c)

Kidd shakes Neville's hand and talks trash, then they tie up and fight for position, with Neville finally taking Kidd down with an armdrag. Kidd applies a headlock and hits a shoulder tackle, then Neville rolls through a Kidd monkey flip and they try to match each other's moves. Kidd gets pissed and stomps Neville, putting him in the tree of woe position, then he kicks Neville in the head and follows with a running dropkick. Kidd applies a side headlock before slingshotting Neville throat first on the ropes, then he dropkicks Neville out to the floor and takes him down with a suicide dive. Kidd rolls him in and goes back to a headlock, but Neville fights out and hits Kidd with a dropkick in tree of woe position, then he connects with a springboard splash for two.

Neville blocks a hurricanrana and powerbombs Kidd for two, then he goes for a springboard move but Kidd leaps up and hits a midair side Russian legsweep. Kidd goes for a rollup before hitting an enziguiri and a dropkick, then he goes for a suplex but Neville reverses it and they both fall over the ropes and out to the floor. They get back in and Kidd goes for a Sharpshooter, then transitions to a Dungeon Lock but Neville grabs the ropes. Kidd heads up top but Neville cuts him off, so Kidd punches him a few times but Neville springs back up and hits a hurricanrana and follows with Red Arrow for the win.

Winner – Adrian Neville

BP: A great defense by Neville, and Kidd came up short. I really thought he or Natalya might have won, but not both, due to the way they were building it up. Neville retaining is still the right call, but the power couple would have been interesting. With that said, it was a great match between the two. The reversals and similar styles, in addition to the high spots, made it a great main event.
