Damien Priest, Oney Lorcan, and Ridge Holland all stepped into the ring for another Triple Threat match that will help determine the now vacant NXT North American Championship. At the end of things, it was Priest who walked out as winner, earning a shot at the title at NXT TakeOver: XXX.
With Priest coming away with the win, he’ll join Bronson Reed and Dexter Lumis, along with two future opponents, in a ladder match at the upcoming NXT TakeOver: XXX. The winner of that ladder match will become the new NXT North American Champion, so the final two combatents will be joining a stacked card filled with some of NXT’s best and brightest superstars.
