March 11th Episode of NXT Results

Keith Lee defeats Cameron Grimes

Grimes went for a number of moves, but Lee didn’t acknowledge any of the offense. Eventually Lee just shoved Grimes to the floor, but Lee made a mistake by going to the outside. Grimes hit a PK and a stomp off the apron. When Grimes went for a suicide dive, Keith Lee caught him. Lee attempted a superplex, but Grimes evaded and successfully hit a diving cross body as NXT went to commercial.

Back from commercial, Grimes attempted a German suplex that Lee countered. After a leap frog, Keith Lee crushed Grimes with a cross body. When both men made it back to their feet, Grimes connected with a number of strikes and then actually hit the German Suplex with a bridge for a near fall. After a DDT, Grimes went for the Cave In, but Lee evaded and pounced. Lee defeated Grimes with the Big Bang Catastrophe.

Post Match

Priest attacked Lee from behind with a night stick. Dijakovic hit the ring to make the save. As Dijakovic tried to hand the belt back to Lee, Keith hit Dominik with a spirit bomb evidently unaware that Priest actually attacked Lee.

Mia Yim defeats Dakota Kai

The match started quickly, but became a striking contest with Mia Yim getting the better of that exchange. Yim swept the legs and hit a basement dropkick for a two count. Mia Yim attempted to kick Raquel Goanzales, but Gonzales grabbed her by the leg and slammed her onto the apron as NXT went to commercial.

Back from commercial, Kai had the advantage, but Yim kept going for Kai’s knee. After a neck breaker and a shotgun dropkick, Yim hit a cannonball for a near fall. Kai and Yim then exchanged forearms, but Kai hit the Kai-ropractor for a two count. When Kai missed a high kick in the corner, Yim hit a powerbomb and went for the cover, but Raquel Gonzales pulled Yim off. Moments later, Yim still got the pin.

Post Match

Gonzales hit the ring and slammed Mia Yim a couple of times.

Ciampa’s Arrival

The interviewer asked if Ciampa knew what Gargano meant by doing things his way. Ciampa just said “His way” and kept walking.

Kushida defeats Raul Mendoza

Directly after the bell rang, Kushida and Raul Mendoza ran at one another. After a series of evasions with nobody getting any offense, Mendoza connected with a dropkick. Raul’s advantage would not last long as Kushida hit a tope con hilo and an enziguri to swing things back in his favor. When Kushida missed an aerial move, Mendoza followed with a twisting suplex and a moonsault for a near fall. In order to regain control, Kushida used a handspring back elbow and an arm drag-cartwheel-basement dropkick combo. From the top rope, Kushida used his Spanish fly that transitions directly into the cross arm-breaker for the submission victory.

Austin Theory interrupted the interview. After Theory commented on Tyler Breeze’s tenure on the main roster not working out, Breeze snapped a photo and said “You’ll look pretty good for a flash in the pan.”

Rhea Ripley In-Ring Interview

Ripley admits that her match with Charlotte is the biggest match in her career. She gets through the pressure by knocking the Queen on her ass. Charlotte Flair came out. While Charlotte told the crowd to sit down and shut up, they just continued to  chant “Go Back to Raw.” Charlotte says Rhea has guts but it is too much too soon. Charlotte says she’ll take Rhea to deep waters and drown her, and she won’t do anything about it. Ripley attacked again, but Charlotte took her out with a boot to the face. Charlotte rolled out of the ring and put the figure four on the ring post. The crowd chanted “You don’t go here” was Charlotte stood over Rhea Ripley.

After a quick suplex, Purrazo went for a cover and received a two count. Purazzo sent Nox to the corner and proceeded to lay in a number of kicks and chops. When Nox got to her feat, she sent Purazzo into the corner and missed the cannonball. After Nox escaped Purrazo’s fujiwara armbar, she hit the Shiniest Wizard to advance to the Number One Contender Ladder Match.

All Four Members of the Undisputed Era came to the Ring

He said that none of his issues have had anything to do with Roderick Strong. He wants a match with Adam Cole. Cole says Velveteen Dream didn’t earn a championship match, and he let’s Dream know that next week he’ll become the longest reigning NXT champion of all time.

The Broserweights defeat The Undisputed Era

O’Reilly and Dunne start the match with a bit of wrestling, but they both tag out to Bobby Fish and Matt Riddle. After Pete Dunne and Matt Riddle deliver a pair of tandem gut wrench suplexes, the Undisputed Era roll to the outside sending NXT to a commercial break.

Back from the break, O’Reilly and Riddle exchanged forearm shakes, but O’relly knocked Riddle off the apron and Bobby Fish hit a number of strikes. After rolling Riddle back in the ring, the Undisputed Era continued the knee strikes first in the corner and then in the center of the ring. When O’Reilly got bored with knee strikes, he started using forearms. Bobby Fish used a snap suplex to gain a near fall. The Undisputed Era used a double team suplex on Riddle while continuing the knee strikes.

Riddle escaped and got a hot tag off to Pete Dunne. After stomping the fingers of Fish, he kicked him right in the face. Dunne then locked in a triangle submission, but the Undisputed Era pulled O’Reilly out of the ring. After Riddle hit a tope con hilo off Dunne’s back, Matt tossed both Strong and Cole into the ring and Dunne feigned a superkick from Cole. When the referee observed Dunne on the ground, he ejected both Cole and Strong from the ringside area. This sent NXT to another commercial.

When NXT came back from commercial, the Undisputed Era had the advantage over Dunne. After Dunne tagged Ridle into the match, he went crazy hitting forearms, exploder suplexes, and sentons on both men. Undisputed Era went for tandem Germans, but both Riddle and Dunne flipped through and hit roundhouse kicks.

The Undisputed Era knocked Dunne over the barricade and attempted to finish off Riddle. Matt Riddle managed to evade their tandem offense hitting both men with a spear. GYV came down to the ring and interfered to very nearly give the Undisputed Era the victory. Once Riddle and Dunne took care of GYV, they finished off O’Reilly for the pinfall victory
