The third match on the NXT TakeOver: Brooklyn IV card was between NXT North American Champion Adam Cole and challenger Richochet.
After landing a picture perfect leaping hurricanrana from inside the ring, Richochet nailed the 630 splash to pick up a three count and become the new NXT North American Champion.
This after two other members of the Undispited Era, Kyle O’Reilly and Roderick Strong, were pushed to their limits but managed to defend their NXT Tag Team Titles against Mustache Mountain earlier in the night.
