Back inside the arena, Dijak’s theme hits. Out he comes with his black-and-white entrance, like NXT’s version of “Timeless” Toni Storm (although he was doing it first, right?) Anyways, he settles in the ring and then the wild man, Joe Gacy, makes his way out and this one gets started.

Immediately we see the two duke it out and end up on the floor at ringside. We see a bunch of weapons involved straight out of the gate. They are bashed into the steel steps at ringside and then a table is set up on the floor for a big pop. A bunch of legos and small toys are dumped everywhere, including all over the table.

We see a big spot and then a trash can full of more crap is brought out and used to beat up Gacy as the two head back into the ring. Gacy keeps wearing a sadistic smile on his face as he welcomes more and more punishment from Dijak. Dijak puts Gacy in a trash can and stomps the hell out of it and then yells, “Stay down, Gacy!”

He continues pummeling Gacy while he’s stuffed in the trash can, but then while blind in the can, Gacy somehow fights back and smashes into Dijak off the ropes to lay him out on the mat. Gacy takes over on offense and within a moment or two we see Dijak put through the lego-covered table on the floor with authority for a loud “Holy sh*t!” chant from the NXT Universe.

Back in the ring, Gacy hits another big spot on Dijak and goes for the cover, but somehow he kicks out before the count of three to keep this one going. They head to the top-rope and Gacy launches Dijak overhead where he splashes onto a trash can (that he sort of misses) on the way down. Gacy goes for the cover again but once more we see Dijak kicks out.

Gacy pulls out some duct tape and he starts wrapping it around Dijak’s face and eyes to blind him. He heads out under the ring and pulls out two kendo sticks. He begins whacking the living crap out of a blinded Dijak as the crowd “ooh’s” and “ahh’s” as each shot lands. Gacy hits a big moonsault off the top for a super close near fall. Dijak gets the tape off and blasts Gacy with a night stick to the stomach and then hits his finisher for the win.

Winner: Dijak
