Downs...

"Cameron Grimes didn't win the Breakout Tournament. Cameron Grimes didn't win the Breakout Tournament." Nor will Cameron Grimes win many acting awards for an extremely cheesy face-to-cam loaded with lousy exposition presumably designed to up his intensity...following his failed efforts in the Breakout Tournament.

Hard to criticise Grimes personally for this when the hand of an author could be felt forcibly throughout.

Putting his hat on was as weak a directorial big finish as the rest of the content provided - he's a fair way short of the NXT Championship he craves with this current character.
