The NXT Men's Breakout Tournament held its penultimate round.
In the first of two semifinal matches in the tournament that occurred on December 26, Lexis King was defeated by Riley Osborne, who picked up a victory with a Shooting Star Press after Trey Bearhill distracted King.
Later that night, Oba Femi defeated Tavion Heights defeated with a Powerbomb.
This is going to be GOOD.
