WWE NXT Results 5/27/20

Here are your quick and dirty, editorial-free WWE NXT results for May 27, 2020. The show featured an “NXT Fight Pit” match between Matt Riddle and Timothy Thatcher with Kurt Angle as special guest referee, Charlotte Flair in tag team action, and more. Make sure you’re here tomorrow for the complete Best and Worst of NXT column.

NXT Results:


1. Interim Cruiserweight Championship Tournament Match: Drake Maverick defeated KUSHIDA and Jake Atlas. KUSHIDA had Atlas in an arm bar, so Maverick crawled over, put his arm over Atlas’ chest, and stole the pin. KUSHIDA’s legs were also covering Atlas, but it wasn’t mentioned. After the match, Maverick’s shook hands with his tournament finals opponent, El Hijo del Fantasma.

– Later in the show, footage revealed that Maverick pinned Atlas while Atlas was tapping out to KUSHIDA. Maverick wanted to win fairly, but KUSHIDA approached him and told him to win and keep his job. Maverick promised KUSHIDA the first title shot, should he win the championship.

– Charlotte Flair will defend the NXT Women’s Championship in a triple threat match against Io Shirai and Rhea Ripley at NXT TakeOver: In Your House.

2. Johnny Gargano defeated Adrian Alanis. This was the first match in the “Johnny Gargano Invitational.” After the match, Gargano and Candice LeRae were interrupted by a video of Keith Lee and Mia Yim mocking them over dinner. It also featured Tegan Nox bringing Lee and Yim a pizza. LeRae will face Yim next week.

3. Raquel Gonzalez defeated Shotzi Blackheart. Dakota Kai interfered, allowing Gonzalez to hit a powerbomb (of sorts) and win the match.

4. Charlotte Flair and Chelsea Green defeated Io Shirai and Rhea Ripley when Flair pinned Shirai with her feet on the ropes for leverage.

– Imperium cut a promo about being dominant NXT Tag Team Champions. Later, Danny Burch and Oney Lorcan met up for a drink and decided to go after the championship.


5. Tommaso Ciampa defeated Leon Ruff. Ciampa won with the Fairy Tale Ending. Scarlett stood at ringside and stared at Ciampa throughout the match. Karrion Kross’ giant face appeared on the video screen after the match and promised that at TakeOver In Your House, he’ll make Ciampa feel something he’s never felt in his life.

6. Fight Pit Match: Timothy Thatcher defeated Matt Riddle. Kurt Angle was the special referee. Thatcher lost teeth during the match, but was able to make Riddle pass out in a choke to win the match.

Henry Cavill May Be Returning As Superman, Though Not In Another ‘Man Of Steel’

Last week it was revealed that DC fans’ prayers were answered: They’ll be getting their own “Snyder Cut” of Justice League after all. While the main cast won’t be returning to shoot any additional footage, news of a rehabbed version of the troubled, underperforming 2017 all-star DCEU romp did remind people of one thing: Is Henry Cavill ever coming back as Superman? The answer, at least according to some sources who spoke with Deadline, is yes.

Granted, that doesn’t mean we’ll be getting a Man of Steel 2. However, there are a number of ways Cavill’s iteration of Clark Kent could return. It’s obviously too late for him to swing by Wonder Woman 1984, and he’s not going to be in the Robert Pattinson-starring The Batman. But he could, Deadline posits, appear in some of the other DCEU titles, from Shazam 2 to Black Adam to Aquaman 2.

Cavill was last seen making a surprise appearance on Zack Snyder’s Man of Steel watch party last week, in which the director broke the news about the reworked Justice League cut. For the last year and a half, the English actor’s place in the DCEU has been in question, and last November he said he hadn’t given up on reprising his most famous role. Of course, he should also be getting on Guy Ritchie to make another Man from U.N.C.L.E.

Watch The Revival Make Their Long-Awaited AEW Debut On Dynamite

We’ve been waiting for it to happen since the moment they were finally released from their long-suffering WWE contracts, and Wednesday’s Dynamite finally gave it to us. The Revival of Scott Dawson and Dash Wilder are officially on the All Elite Wrestling roster.

The Butcher and The Blade (in their finest, post-Memorial Day whites) were attacking The Young Bucks when the artists formerly known as The Revival — now known as “FTR,” with the names Dax Hardwood and Cash Wheeler … Dax and Cash, like Ax and Smash, get it? — made the save. A black truck pulled up to Daily’s Place, and one of the best tag teams in the world finally stepped into the promotion where they’ll be able to make good on those Twitter promises and, God willing, have good matches again.


You can watch a clip of their debut below.

Really good to see the Shatter Machine again.

It’s interesting to see FTR finally show up after all this time to be in the same ring as the Young Bucks without attacking them, but we’re sure there’ll be time for that. The big winner here is the AEW tag team division, and a couple of former tag champs who’ll never have to shave each other’s backs and get “Ucey Hot” on their balls ever again.

The Basketball Hall Of Fame Induction Ceremony Has Been Postponed Until 2021

It’s been almost two-and-half months since the NBA season went on hiatus amid the COVID-19 pandemic, but there is growing optimism that we’ll see a return to action sometime toward the end of July. The league and is working together with the owners and players to hammer out a scenario in which they might safely resume play in a bubble location, such as Walt Disney World Orlando.

But that doesn’t mean everything is going back to normal. Large-scale gatherings in public spaces are still mostly inadvisable, if they can be avoided, which is why we continue to see events all across the spectrum cancelled or postponed. The Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame ceremony, where Kobe Bryant, Kevin Garnett, and Tim Duncan are set to be enshrined, is the latest casualty.

The annual event was originally slated to take place at its location in Springfield, Mass. in late August, although officials had tentatively pushed it until October in the hope that things might get back to normal by then. That hasn’t happened, and so on Wednesday, Hall chairman Jerry Colangelo announced that the enshrinement ceremony will be moved until sometime in the spring of next year.

Via Jackie MacMullan of ESPN:

Jerry Colangelo, the chairman of the board of the governors for the Hall, told ESPN on Wednesday that enshrinement ceremonies for the Class of 2020, one of the most star-studded lineups ever which includes Tim Duncan, Kevin Garnett and the late Kobe Bryant, will be moved to spring of 2021.

***

“We’re definitely canceling,” Colangelo said. “It’s going to have to be the first quarter of next year. We’ll meet in a couple of weeks and look at the options of how and when and where.”

Each year, the Hall in Springfield hosts the three-day event that involves nearly 3,000 visitors, making social distancing measures nearly impossible. It figured to be a highly-emotional event, given the tragic passing of Lakers legend Kobe Bryant earlier this year. Colangelo also clarified that the enshrinement ceremony for the 2021 class will be held separately at a later date to be determined.

Ramy Youssef Says He Almost Got Lindsay Lohan To Appear On ‘Ramy,’ But She Ghosted Him

Lindsay Lohan has been not-so-quietly attempting a comeback, releasing her first new music in fifteen years, doing talk show appearances, even saying she’d love to do a Mean Girls 2. One thing she won’t be doing is popping up on the hit Hulu series Ramy, but that’s only because she disappeared.

In a new interview with Entertainment Weekly, the show’s star and co-creator Ramy Youssef talked about some of the surprising appearances in his forthcoming second season. One was porn star Mia Khalifa. Lohan was almost another.

“We had an idea that it wasn’t just her, but we were interested in this idea of people that you don’t really think are Muslim,” Youssef told EW. “We actually cast Lindsay Lohan, because Lindsay had this whole thing about converting to Islam. And so we had cast Lindsay and I talked to her and she was down, and then, you know, like Lindsay does, we just kind of stopped hearing from her. [Laughs] I was trying to get ahold of her and she was on the call sheet, and I guess she couldn’t make it. I don’t know, I never heard from her.

“You can’t try and put Lindsay in a box, that’s what I know,” he added. “Lindsay is going to be Lindsay.” But Youssef says there are no hard feelings. “She is one of my favorite Muslims.”
