WWE NXT: Dash and Dawson win tag titles from Vaudevillains
Samoa Joe attacks Finn Balor for second week in a row
Thursday 12 November 2015 12:10, UK
Scott Dawson and Dash Wilder claimed the NXT Tag Team Championships for the first time with victory over The Vaudevillains on Wednesday night.
Dawson and Dash targeted Aiden English's knee after seeing off his partner Simon Gotch and sealed a huge win when Dawson forced English to tap out to the Figure-Four Leglock.
Samoa Joe also has his eyes on a belt - the NXT Title - and appeared closer to it after current champion Finn Balor seemingly agreed to give him a shot.
Joe took to the ring in Orlando to explain that he ruthlessly attacked Balor last week because the Irishman reneged on his promise to hand him a championship opportunity.
Balor soon appeared, however, and implied he would give Joe his match - though the Submission Specialist's response was to shove an official into the Wicklow wrestler and lock in the Coquina Clutch.
Bayley, meanwhile, banded with the Hype Bros - Mojo Rawley and Zack Ryder - to overcome her rival, Alexa Bliss, as well as former NXT Tag Team Champion, Blake and Murphy.
But there was plenty of drama after the bout, too, with Bliss running off with Bayley's Women's Championship and then having it pinched from her by dominant newcomer, Nia Jax.
Jax - a victor over Deonna later in the evening - presented the championship back to Bayley, but not before looking longingly at the sought-after strap.
Plus, Apollo Crews gained a modicum of retribution on Baron Corbin for interfering in his NXT Title contest against Balor last week, throwing the Kansas grappler into the steel ring post.
