Bengaluru, June 23: WWE NXT was highlighted this week, by the debut of the Diamond Mine faction during the main event match featuring the NXT Cruiserweight Champion.
Also on the show, Adam Cole was in action in a singles contest while Johnny Gargano competed in a tag team match, Franky Monet was set for an Encore Premiere at the Capitol Wrestling Center in Orlando, Florida.
Check out the recap and results from the June 22 episode of NXT:
– NXT kicked off with a promo from Adam Cole where he addressed Samoa Joe choking him out with the Coquina Clutch, last week. He also noted on the scheduled match with an unknown opponent (Cole got to pick his opponent but didn't want to wrestle). Carmelo Hayes interrupted and he was able to change Cole's mind.
– As a result, Adam Cole competed against Carmelo Hayes in the opening contest of the night. Cole missed a Panama Sunrise as Carmelo connected with a Superkick. Cole somehow backed up and leveled his opponent before delivering the Panama Sunrise in a second attempt for the pin to win.
