NXT FallOut

    The first post-TakeOver: Brooklyn III episode of NXT hit the WWE Network airwaves Wednesday night with an action-packed main event featuring stars from the United Kingdom.UK champion Pete Dunne and Wolfgang battled Tyler Bate and Trent Seven in a thrilling bout, but that was hardly the only in-ring action on this week's broadcast.Sarah Logan had a rare opportunity to show her skills ahead of the upcoming Mae Young Classic, battling the returning Peyton Royce in singles competition.The top moments of Saturday's massive live event special were also recapped in what amounted to an entertaining placeholder of a show.No Way Jose made his normal entrance into the arena but was jumped by the massive Lars Sullivan.He cut off Jose's attempt at fighting back and left him lying with a big slam.
        Peyton Royce returned to competition Wednesday night, squaring off with Sarah Logan, who has yet to string together enough in-ring performances in NXT to get fans to take notice of her. The former "Crazy" Mary Dobson sought that elusive victory that would turn her fortunes around.Logan outwrestled her Aussie opponent to start, frustrating Royce. The villainess seized control, using her long legs to choke her opponent.The underdog babyface fought back, though, delivering a German suplex and roll up that nearly stunned her opponent.A series of roll-ups followed and a fisherman suplex by Royce scored her the hard-fought victory.
          WWE United Kingdom champion Pete Dunne entered Barclays Center to an enormous pop Wednesday night, as he prepared to team with Wolfgang to battle former titleholder Tyler Bate and Trent Seven in an explosive tag team main event.Dunne and Bate started, delivering a chain-wrestling segment that popped the crowd and served as a strong cliffhanger heading into the commercial break.After a flurry of tandem moves by Bate and Seven, Dunne and Wolfgang took over, isolating the latter from his partner.A hot tag to Bate allowed the former UK champion to unload on his opponents, including a wicked lariat to Dunne.Bate hit the Tyler Drive 97 on Dunne, but an alert Wolfgang caught him with a senton to score the victory.

Hell in a Cell Results

               The opening match Sunday night featured Chad Gable and Shelton Benjamin defeating The Hype Bros in a fast-paced, electrifying contest.Zack Ryder and Mojo Rawley controlled the pace of the match, working over the smaller Gable. A big moonsault allowed the Olympian to make the hot tag to Benjamin and the action broke down.At one point, with Gable disposed of at ringside, it looked like Ryder and Rawley were on their way to victory. They could not execute The Hype Ryder, though, and Benjamin answered with Paydirt to Ryder. The finisher, which had won the former intercontinental and United States champion so many matches in the past, was broken up by Rawley.The babyfaces deposited the 2017 Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal winner on the arena floor and turned their attention to Ryder, who they pinned following their double-team finisher.The contest was well-structured, featured good and dramatic near-falls late and saw the right te...

Go Home

As with yesterday's Raw, the show opens with the roster on the stage for a moment of reflection in memory of the lives lost in Las Vegas, and from there we get a recap video covering last week's portion of the feud between Shinsuke Nakamura and Jinder Mahal. Live in the arena, Renee Young introduces Shinsuke for an interview. He thinks a moment before responding and says that sticks and stones may break his bones, but the words never hurt him. He says the greatest fear of all is the fear of the unknown, but Jinder will know when he beats him and becomes WWE Champion. Enter the Singh Brothers. They're sorry to interrupt this "thrilling" interview but they have to introduce their guy in their usual fashion. He blindsides Nakamura in the ring and starts beating him down Crossface blows into a stomp to the back, drawing him up but the King of Strong Style gets a rush off and lays him out with a roundhouse. The Singhs run interference but Shinsuke dumps them with ease...

We go to the ring and out come new SmackDown Tag Team Champions The Usos as Greg Hamilton does the introduction.The Usos say they told everyone they had the tag team division on lock. They welcome us to the Uso Penitentiary. They say you come out of the Cell as a changed man so they want The New Day to come out and hear what they have to say to their faces. The music hits and out comes Big E, Xavier Woods and Kofi Kingston. Kofi is dancing around while Big E and Xavier are moving slower than usual due to Sunday's brutal match.The Usos say both teams went to war last night and the other teams in the back suck. Woods wouldn't say they suck but these teams in the ring are the best. The Usos go on with props for both of them, also talking about how beat up they were after the match. The Usos say they and The New Day are the tag team division and they run the division. The New Day wonders if The Usos are asking for a truce. The Usos say it's all about respect. The fans p...
