WWE NXT Live Event Results From Poughkeepsie (4/23): Samoa Joe Defends, Shinsuke Nakamura, More

- Thanks to my good buddy Andy DeSocio III for texting the following WWE NXT live event results from tonight's show in Poughkeepsie, New York:

* Chris Girard defeated Mojo Rawley in a hot opener. Stiff action by Girard that had the crowd really into him. Not a lot of Mojo fans tonight but he acted like they were

* Bayley and Carmella defeated Dana Brooke and Peyton Royce when Bayley pinned Dana. Loud pop for Carmella and Bayley when they came out, great match for the women

* Manny Andrade defeated Tommaso Ciampa in a sick match, going to be hard to top this one. Both men got big reactions after the match, especially Manny

* Shinsuke Nakamura defeated Elias Samson. Loud heat for The Drifter and his guitar but Nakamura's pop for his entrance was crazy loud. Amazing ring work here and fun antics/comedy from Nakamura. He made Elias look pretty good

* NXT Tag Team Champions Chad Gable and Jason Jordan defeated Dash and Dawson in a 2 of 3 Falls Match, 2-1. Loud reactions for American Alpha, such good in-ring work by both teams. The ending was really cool as they won with double ankle locks in the middle of the ring

* NXT Women's Champion Asuka defeated Alexa Bliss by submission with the Asuka Lock. Bliss was very good with the crowd and Asuka was on fire

* NXT Champion Samoa Joe retained over Austin Aries and Finn Balor in the main event. Joe was about to put Aries out with the Coquina Clutch when Balor hit Aries and Joe with a Coup de Grace. Balor then hit the 1916 on Aries but Joe stole the pin for the win. Balor cut a post-match promo and said he's staying in NXT
