The main event of tonight’s WWE NXT would decide the main event of NXT Spring Breakin’ with a Fatal 4-Way match between Grayson Waller, JD McDonagh, and Dragon Lee. A late addition to the match would be Chase U’s Duke Hudson after Bron Breakker gave up his spot, and they would all battle for the chance to face Carmelo Hayes for the NXT Championship at Spring Breakin’. Everyone ended up looking strong in the match, though Lee and Hudson had the strongest showings, and at one point it really looked as if Hudson would take the win. Lee would hit Hudson with a powerbomb and go for the pin, but then Waller came in, knocked Lee out of the ring, and pinned Hudson for the win, sending him head to head against Hayes at Spring Breakin’.
