Bron Breakker retained the NXT Title at In Your House. It didn’t take long for him to find a new challenger after dispatching of Joe Gacy. Nobody expected his challenger to come from the main roster.

After cutting a short promo, Bron Breakker invited his next challenger to come out and face him. To everyone’s surprise, Apollo Crews’ music hit and he came out to a thunderous ovation. Commander Azeez was not with Apollo at all.

Apollo Crews said he’s in NXT “for as long as I wanna be.” He also had zero Nigerian accent. It appears that Apollo is a babyface American in NXT, and he really put over Bron Breakker before challenging for that title.

Crews said that he will make history with Breakker, and then he said “I’ll see you down the road, Champ.” This is a very interesting situation, because Apollo Crews is back in NXT and he has a lot of things to accomplish.
