Minutes to Bell Time

Tegan Nox vs. Dakota Kai

NXT TakeOver February 15: Street Fight

Nox barely made it out of the curtain before Kai attacked. As Kai tossed Nox in the ring, the referee called for the bell.  The match immediately went back to the outside where Kai wedged Nox’s leg between the stairs and the post. Dakota grabbed a cricket bat and swung hard at Nox, but Tegan ducked and Kai hit the post.

Nox put a garbage can over Kai’s head and hit an inverted senton against the stairs. Back in the ring, Nox hit a German Suplex on a garbage can for a near fall. A few moments later, Nox hit a top rope Molly go round. Kai managed to evade a kick and then kicked a chair right into Nox’s face.

Nox then went after Kai’s injured knee with a chain first and then a chair. When Nox hit a shining wizard, she decided not to go for the cover. Instead she went to the outside and grabbed a table. Nox put Kai on the table, but Raquel Gonzales came down and tossed Tegan Nox onto the table. The table didn’t break, but that was enough for Dakota to pick up the victory.
