ROOKIE/PRO TAG MATCH
MATCH | CHRIS BENOIT & SETH SKYFIRE DEFEATED GREGORY HELMS & DERRICK NEIKIRK [/li][li]A video package airs about Seth Skyfire prior to the match. Seth says he has wanted to be a pro wrestler all his life but because of his size he’s been held back and told to get another day job. He says it’s an honour to be paired with Chris Benoit since he has modelled his career after Chris and he’s another smaller wrestler who’s made it big. He says he will win NXT.
[/li][li]The heels isolated Skyfire for a majority of the match before he tagged in Benoit who took out both men.

He says being paired with Edge is going to be interesting since they are almost nothing alike but he is really looking forward to this opportunity.
[/li][li]Very good match that showed that Ric Flair’s experience was getting the better of Punk.
[/li][li]JBL was ripping into Punk about how this is the big league’s now he's not fighting in front of 20 people any more.
