Tommaso Ciampa vs. Grayson Waller on NXT 2.0
.@NXTCiampa has had enough of @GraysonWWE's talking. #WWENXT https://t.co/p12EBkafwm
Ciampa put Waller in the corner early on and went for knees to the head. Waller hit two neck breakers on the Champ before using the ropes to lock in a hold.
Ciampa came out of the corner with a big boot before taking a Pop-up Spear. Waller went for the People's Elbow but Ciampa dodged it and hit some clotheslines before Grayson was sent outside and over the announcer's desk.

Grade: B
Backstage, LA Knight said that Waller was a loser, and Joe Gacy said that these kinds of thoughts were harmful. After some banter, Knight challenged Gacy to a match on NXT 2.0
Two very different energies.

Cameron Grimes was out on NXT 2.0 and after last week's haircut, he said that his beard and hair were reminders of his early days where he struggled for years before making it big in WWE.
"If I scratched and I clawed, it didn't matter how many nights I slept on a concrete floor... I showed all those people that @CGrimesWWE holds it down!"

Duke Hudson took it away from him and he was not happy about it. Hudson came on the Titantron and mocked Grimes some more before turning down his challenge for a match.
What a hair-raising turn of events for @CGrimesWWE and @sixftfiiiiive! #WWENXT #NXTWarGames https://t.co/JUcKzKG7My
Grimes fired back and challenged him to a Hair vs. Hair match at NXT WarGames. Hudson accepted the challenge and showed us that he saved Grimes' hair in a plastic bag.
