WWE NXT Results (15/06/21): Samoa Joe Returns; Tornado Tag Team Match; Title Match

This week’s WWE NXT was all hyped up around a major announcement that was slated to change things in a big way for the brand.

Also, the Cruiserweight Title was on the line on the episode that aired from the Yuengling Center in Tampa, Florida. Check out the results,

– WWE NXT General Manager William Regal came out and remembered all the good times he spent with the black-and-yellow brand for the 7 years. Regal then hinted at stepping down from his post when NXT Champion Karrion Kross and Scarlett came out. Kross said we knew this day would come and he wants to feel this moment. Kross then called Regal pathetic as the moment has finally arrived.

Kross wanted Regal to say that he was about to step down from his spot. Samoa Joe then made his return to WWE NXT as the audience erupted.

Regal said that he wanted Joe to be the new NXT General Manager, but Joe declined that offer. Joe didn’t think himself to be the right person to fill his shoes. However, Joe will make sure that Regal gets the respect that he deserves.

Regal agreed but said Joe can’t put his hands on anyone unless provoked. Joe then got into Kross’ face as Kross and Scarlett left the ring. Joe and Regal shook hands to end the segment.

– Breezango defeated Imperium in the opening contest of WWE NXT. Breeze rolled up Aichner of Imperium to get the win after which Imperium attacked Breezango after the match. They put down Breeze with the big double-team European Bomb on Breeze before leaving.
