The second day of the WWE NXT Great American Bash saw Keith Lee defeat Adam Cole. He became the first superstar to hold the NXT Championship and the North American Championship simultaneously in the main event. Lee ended Cole’s record 403-day run as the champion. Lee and Cole’s match was excellent. It looked like Lee was headed for a loss when Cole hit a Last Shot at the end. But instead of pinning the challenger, Cole went to the top rope for a Panama Sunrise. Lee turned the maneuver into a Spirit Bomb and then hit a Big Bang Catastrophe to defeat Cole.
Full Day 2 results:
Candice LeRae beat Mia Yim in a Street Fight
Bronson Reed beat Tony Nese
Johnny Gargano beat Isaiah “Swerve” Scott
Legado del Fantasma beat Drake Maverick & Breezango
