NXT Tag Team Championship Number One Contender’s Match: Breezango vs. Danny Burch and Oney Lorcan vs. Legado Del Fantasma

A rare NXT Kickoff match. The winners face Imperium. Mendoza knocks Breeze off the apron and is the legal man against Oney and Fandango. All hell quickly breaks loose, including a dive to the outside. Fandango gyrates as he faces off with a vicious Oney. They collided and spill outside where everyone else is. Mendoza takes a bunch of them out with a spiral splash to the outside. Inside, Wilde uses a neckbreaker on Oney that causes him to DDT Fandango. A hot tag comes to Danny Burch who hits everything with force. The teams keep trading offense until Buch headbutts Wile and tags in Oney for what looks like Magic Killer. Mendoza breaks up the pin. Breezango comes close after a sweet backbreaker/leg drop combo. After things break down, Wilde hits a 450 splash on Breeze but the count is broken up.  Lorcan crushes Wilde with a running uppercut but then Breeze clocks him with a superkick to win.

Finn Balor vs. Timothy Thatcher

Finn attacks at the bell but Thatcher takes him to the mat and holds serve there. Finn gets up but takes a club to the chest. He tries to take control on the mat but Thatcher is just better than him at that. Balor pops up with adrenaline only to get rolled into the Kimura. Finn is in clear trouble. Although Finn slips out, he still gets his arm wrenched and Thatcher drives knees into his back. Thatcher gets two on a butterfly suplex and holds on but Finn rolls through a pin with a dropkick, finally getting some air. That gets him going as he reels off some offense. Finn works an abdominal stretch like its 1992 and then hits a lifting reverse DDT for two. Finn misses Coup de Grace and hurts his leg further. Thatcher, like a shark smelling blood, pounces and wraps Finn up with a half crab. Finn kicks his way free but eats a release German suplex. Finn slaps on another modified abdominal stretch. Thatcher counters into an ankle lock. His next attempt to transition sees Finn roll through and deliver a double stomp. Coup de Grace works this time but his knee is still damaged.
