WWE NXT Results, winners, and grades: Tony D’Angelo will challenge Carmelo Hayes for the NXT North American Championship. Solo Sikoa will square off against Grayson Waller while Alba Fyre will look for some revenge after Lash Legend took her out from behind last week.
Let’s start with the NXT results for 21 June:
Solo Sikoa versus Grayson Waller
While coming down the ramp, Grayson Waller said he is sick of Solo Sikoa. He hailed himself as the greatest first-generation talent. However, Sikoa wasn’t going to keep listening as he went to the ramp and attacked Waller. As both men entered the ring, the match got underway. Sikoa delivered a bodyslam but the Australian star began to shove his opponent’s head on the middle turnbuckle. Sikoa lifted Waller on his shoulders looking for the Samoan drop but the latter exposed the turnbuckle and managed to escape.
The younger brother of The Usos flattened Waller with a clothesline and continued dominating the match. Waller stomped at Sikoa’s feet and sent him out of the ring. As Waller looked to take control, Sikoa flattened his nemesis with a back elbow. We went into a commercial break, and upon returning, we saw Waller dominating the match in the middle of the ring. Waller planted Sikoa with a DDT and went for a cover, but Sikoa kicked out at 2. Waller got up on the middle rope and took too much time taunting the crowd.
Sikoa knocked him off the rope and began to build momentum. Waller tried a rolling Stunner but Sikoa countered into a Samoan drop. As Sikoa went up on the top rope, Waller rolled away. Eventually, Waller evaded an onrushing Sikoa, who went back-first into the exposed steel. Waller followed up with a rolling Stunner to pick up the win.
