Timothy Thatcher wanted the first opportunity at Damian Priest’s newly won North American Title, and now he’s got it.

Confronting Priest last month, Thatcher took umbrage with the poor way he believes The Archer of Infamy carries himself as a champion. Last week, he also pointed out what he perceived as flaws in Priest’s game during his latest Thatch-as-Thatch-can class.

But Priest turned in a nearly flawless performance at NXT TakeOver XXX, prevailing over four top NXT Superstars in a Ladder Match to claim the vacant North American Championship.

Can Priest turn aside Thatcher’s challenge, or will his infamy be short-lived?
