<p>WWE NXT aired without any competition from Dynamite this week, as TNT rescheduled this week&#8217;s broadcast of the show due to clashes with their other shows.</p>

<p>One of the major matches for the PPV, the Ladder Match for the North American Championship, finally filled up the five spots, as former champions Johnny Gargano and Velveteen Dream joined the fray, by defeating Ridge Holland and Finn Balor respectively. </p>
