Rhea Ripley pummeled Dakota Kai for much of the bout, though The Captain of Team Kick displayed impressive resilience. However, it was the presence of Mercedes Martinez — who blasted Ripley with a drive-by kick when the referee was checking on Kai — who decided the match in a big way. Kai took advantage, hitting the Go-To Kick to earn a date with NXT Women's Champion Io Shirai at NXT TakeOver XXX

Damian Priest is one step closer to infamy. He prevailed in the latest in the North American Championship Triple Threat Match Series, this one a high-octane encounter with the hard-hitting Oney Lorcan and the debuting Ridge Holland. Though Lorcan brought his trademark intensity and Holland impressed mightily, Priest claimed victory after flattening Lorcan with The Reckoning. 

NXT Champion Keith Lee def. Cameron Grimes in a Non-Title Match

NXT Champion Keith Lee vs. Cameron Grimes - Non-Title Match: WWE NXT, Aug. 5, 2020

The Limitless One looks to silence The Technical Savage. Catch WWE action on WWE Network, FOX, USA Network, Sony India and more.

Cameron Grimes picked an especially inopportune time to mess with Keith Lee. The NXT Champion seemed to channel his rage for Karrion Kross into this bout against The Technical Savage with a steely focus. Grimes dug deep into his bag of tricks in one of his most impressive showings since joining the black-and-gold brand, but Lee was too much, dropping Grimes with a Spirit Bomb for the win.

Tegan Nox def. Indi Hartwell

Tegan Nox vs. Indi Hartwell: WWE NXT, Aug. 5, 2020

The Girl with the Shiniest Wizard battles “Impressive” Indi Hartwell. Catch WWE action on WWE Network, FOX, USA Network, Sony India and more.

If Tegan Nox was discouraged by not knocking off Io Shirai last month in her bid for the NXT Women's Title, it didn't show. Nox took down Indi Hartwell, pinning her after hitting The Shiniest Wizard. 

NXT Tag Team Champions Imperium def. The Undisputed ERA

Imperium vs. The Undisputed ERA – NXT Tag Team Championship Match: WWE NXT, Aug. 5, 2020

Bobby Fish & Kyle O’Reilly try to bring an end to the age of Imperium on the black-and-gold brand. Catch WWE action on WWE Network, FOX, USA Network, Sony India and more.

The tension between Adam Cole and Pat McAfee took center stage, and it cost The Undisputed ERA dearly. Cole left Bobby Fish & Kyle O'Reilly's corner to ultimately confront McAfee, who had been disparaging Cole within earshot on commentary throughout the bout. The situation was enough to distract O'Reilly's attention away from the ring, allowing Imperium to drop Fish with the European Bomb to retain their titles.

Adam Cole and Pat McAfee’s chaotic confrontation: WWE NXT, Aug. 5, 2020

Just when the former NXT Champion and McAfee seem to have made amends, all hell breaks loose. Catch WWE action on WWE Network, FOX, USA Network, Sony India and more.

But the action was far from over. Despite several officials, including Triple H and NXT coach Shawn Michaels, trying to split them up, McAfee, a former All-Pro NFL punter, caught an unsuspecting Cole with a brutal punt kick, leaving him out cold.
