Winner: Adam Cole (remains Champion)

After the match, Adam Cole says he is the most buzzworthy superstar on any brand. That is because of what he gets done in this ring. He defends his North American Championship all over the world. He has defended it in the UK. Adam says tonight’s opponent was a young, hungry upstart and who gave him a chance? It was Adam Cole.

Cole is interrupted by Ricochet.

Ricochet tells Adam he owes him an apology. You did not run from your competition. Granted, you did have a non title match against a guy whose name you can’t remember. Since joining NXT, you have taken this industry by storm. Since becoming champion, the man who claims to Shock the System, all you have done is shockingly become a coward. Ricochet tells Cole he can change his opinion because you are so good.

How about we have a match. How about you have a match for the NXT North American Championship. How about having a match for the NXT North American Championship in Brooklyn . . . against him. Unless Ricochet says he is right about Cole, bay bay.

Cole says that Ricochet is right. He is so so good. Cole says that is why he will not diminish himself by fighting Ricochet in Brooklyn.

Cole leaves the ring.
