Former TNA Knockout Makes WWE NXT Debut, Hideo Itami On Attacking Kassius Ohno, Next Week's NXT

By Marc Middleton

- Tonight's WWE NXT main event between Hideo Itami and Kassius Ohno ended by DQ after Itami kicked Ohno below the belt. After the bell, Itami attacked Ohno and hit two GTS before coming back to the ring to send Ohno face-first into the steel ring steps.

In the Fallout video above, Christy St. Cloud approaches Itami for comments on the attack. Itami says it's all about respect and Kassius doesn't understand that.

- Next week's NXT episode will feature Johnny Gargano's return to the ring against Raul Mendoza, plus NXT Champion Bobby Roode's response to tonight's promo from #1 contender Drew McIntyre.

- Former TNA Knockout Lei'D Tapa made her NXT TV debut on tonight's episode, losing the opening match to Ember Moon. As noted, Moon vs. NXT Women's Champion Asuka is now official for "Takeover: Brooklyn III" during SummerSlam weekend. Below is a photo from the match:
