WWE NXT results, Aug. 21, 2019: Dain lays waste to Riddle as their chaotic fight spills outside the arena

See WWE NXT photos for Aug. 21, 2019, featuring Jordan Myles' challenge to NXT Champion Adam Cole, Matt Riddle and Killian Dain's ferocious main-event brawl and much more.

ORLANDO, Fla. — While Adam Cole crowed about being the greatest NXT Champion in the black-and-gold brand’s history following his winning performance at TakeOver: Toronto, the rest of the Undisputed ERA vented about being “screwed” out of victories — and, thus, denied the chance to fulfill the ERA’s golden prophecy — at NXT’s most recent marquee event.

Roderick Strong noted that he was not pinned in the NXT North American Title Triple Threat Match and accused champion Velveteen Dream of ducking him, while Kyle O’Reilly & Bobby Fish demanded that NXT General Manager William Regal address the matter of the illegal pinfall that cost them their NXT Tag Team Title Match against The Street Profits.

Those setbacks aside, The Undisputed ERA were in bright spirits … that is, until Jordan Myles arrived with his championship match contract in hand. Although Cole initially laughed off the notion of the Breakout Tournament winner challenging for his crown, The Panama City Playboy was considerably less amused when Myles — who remained silent and stone-faced while enduring Cole’s insults — dropped the contract at the champion’s feet, broke into a wide smile and peaced out, clearly unrattled by Cole’s intimidation tactics.

Before the end of the night, the NXT Universe found out that not only will Fish & O’Reilly challenge The Street Profits for the tandem titles next week on WWE Network, but also that Myles will vie for Cole’s NXT Title in a championship bout on the Sept. 4 edition of NXT!

Despite operating at a severe size and strength disadvantage against Damian Priest, Mansoor showed that he’s got the determination, technique and heart to stand toe-to-toe with the mighty Archer of Infamy. Mansoor brought the fight to the big man, stunning Priest with hard-to-predict aerial strikes and eye-popping reversals.

Slick maneuvers and boundless courage, however, were not enough to propel Mansoor to victory on this night.

After shrugging off Mansoor’s attempt at a tornado DDT, Priest launched the blue-chip prospect across the ring with a Razor’s Edge that would make Scott Hall proud. The sinister Superstar then wiped out Mansoor with the Reckoning en route to claiming another victory.

The Head Baddie in Charge doesn’t take kindly to being labeled a “lower” by Vanessa Borne. Video courtesy of the award-winning WWE Network.

Vanessa Borne relied on outside interference from Aliyah, her own ruthless tactics and a heaping helping of trash talk to get off to a hot start against Mia Yim. But when The Vision dared to label Yim a “lower,” literally — affixing a sticker with her favorite epithet onto Yim’s backside — The Head Baddie in Charge grew enraged. Not one to suffer such an indignity without response, Yim fired off rapid-fire knife-edge chops. A cannonball and Protect Ya Neck later, and Yim found herself being announced the victor.

After the match, NXT Women’s Champion Shayna Baszler sauntered to ringside and, surprisingly, gave Yim props for the toughness she displayed at TakeOver: Toronto. The Queen of Spades then invited The HBIC to join her as an ally, just as Jessamyn Duke & Marina Shafir climbed onto the apron and surrounded Yim, suggesting Baszler’s overture wasn’t entirely gracious.

The Head Baddie in Charge made her answer (a strong no) known by knocking Duke to the floor. The numbers soon got the best of The HBIC, however, as Yim fell victim to a two-on-one beatdown by Baszler and Shafir that only ended once referees broke up the melee.

Dominik Dijakovic is back after undergoing knee surgery in May, and with The Rare Breed’s return comes a long-awaited rematch with Keith Lee.

As revealed by Mauro Ranallo, Dijakovic and Lee are set to battle next week on NXT. These two titans last met in February in a total thriller, an incredible cutting-edge conflict that had fans chanting “NXT.” Yet the match also ended in a double count-out, meaning no victor was declared. Due to Dijakovic’s untimely leg injury, the rematch was shelved, but next week, the NXT Universe will finally witness two of the black-and-gold brand’s most athletic big men going toe-to-toe, exclusively on the award-winning WWE Network.

Roderick Strong’s criticism of NXT North American Champion Velveteen Dream’s attention did not fall on deaf ears.

Stretched out on a velvet purple couch that was pushed onto the entrance stage by his harem, Dream savored his victory at TakeOver: Toronto, calling it “priceless,” and stated that no matter the odds, he always ends up on top.

The NXT North American Champion then sent a message to The Messiah of the Backbreaker, telling Strong that the spotlight’s now on him, and if he wants a one-on-one match with the Dream, he’d better act fast and give Dream “an experience” like he's never seen before.
