Tonight’s show will featuring footage from the first ever non-Florida NXT live event, taped at the 2015 Arnold Sports Festival. 

Tyler Breeze vs. Kalisto

The crowd is fired up. Breeze does a lot of posturing early, but is quickly taken down with armdrags and a headlock takedown. Kalisto does a spot rebounding off the ropes where he walks on his hands, kips up and hits a headscissors takedown. Breeze with a superkick to counter a springboard splash. He puts on a rest hold to set up a commercial break. 

The crowd builds momentum for Kalisto, who fights out of the hold but runs into a standing dropkick off the springboard. Kalisto with kicks and a step-up enzuigiri. He sets up for a top rope dive and connects with a 450 splash for a nearfall. Kalisto with a handspring spinning wheel kick; Breeze counters Solida del Sol with the Beauty Shot for the win.
