Cameron Grimes def. Kushida and The Velveteen Dream to earn a spot in the North American Title Ladder Match at NXT TakeOver XXX

Finn Bálor crashes The Velveteen Dream’s return: WWE NXT, Aug. 12, 2020

The Velveteen Dream provided shock and awe with his surprising return for his first action in months, but it wasn't enough to nail down a spot at TakeOver XXX. The always-opportunistic Cameron Grimes picked his moment to strike perfectly. The Technical Savage blasted Kushida with the Cave-In while Kushida had Dream locked in the Hoverboard Lock, allowing him to cover Kushida while Dream was still incapacitated. 

However, because Dream wasn't pinned or submitted, his chances to become a two-time NXT North American Champion are still alive — and they go through Finn Bálor in a second-chance match next week.
