Hell bent on getting his match this week at any cost, Karrion Kross wasted little time pouncing on Legado del Fantasma as the unit arrived in the NXT car park (the most dangerous place in WWE).

Once he'd laid out Raul Mendoza and Joaquin Wilde, the two long awaited opponents set about beating the piss out of one another. Suckering in the former NXT Champion, Escobar slammed a van door into the neck of his rival. Knowing this may have simply angered the 'Bringer of Doomsday', Escobar barricaded himself in the driver's area, only to abort said plan when Kross pierced the door with a pick axe. Yep, it was that sort of night.

It was only a matter of time before the Legado numbers game paid dividends, however, as the trio repeatedly rammed the monster into the aforementioned vehicle. Yet, once the action was dragged into the CWC, an infuriated Kross made light work of Wilde and Mendoza, slinging them through a barricade.

The look on Escobar's face told the story.

Yet, a calculated turn would see the NXT Cruiserweight Champion unexpectedly take control, dominating Kross, alongside his somehow still alive Legado chums, with an unrelenting assault on his shoulder. Kross isn't your average foe, however. Finding a gear very few possess, Kross would rise from the dead, drilling Escobar through the announce desk with a Saito suplex. Another Saito in the ring was rapidly followed by a 'Time's Up' forearm to the skull, earning Kross a substantial victory against what turned out to be almost insurmountable odds.

We hope you're watching, 'Prince', because this lad is going to take some stopping...
