Saquon Shugars Beats Dion Lennox In Weaponized Steel Cage Match On WWE NXT

Saquon Shugars picked up a big win over his former DarkState ally Dion Lennox, defeating him in a weaponized cage match on WWE NXT. Tuesday night’s episode opened with the match between the two rivals, who did battle inside a weapon-laden cage.

The nearly 15-minute match saw the two go right at each other from the start. The battle got vicious early on as Lennox sent Shugars into the cage and took his belt, whipping him with it. Lennox hit a powerbomb on a chair but Shugars was able to battle back, using a trash can as a weapon and nailing him with a chair.

The battle went back and forth with the chair, a kendo stick and more being brought into the action. The finish of the bout saw Shugars go up top and hit a crossbody on Lennox to get the pinfall victory.
