Dexter Lumis Victorious In First NXT Match Since July
Dexter Lumis is back and wrestling on NXT.
Lumis had his first match on NXT in nearly three months, answering Austin Theory’s challenge after he was victorious in a quick match against Leon Ruff. Lumis ended up winning the match by submitting Theory and leaving him unconscious.
However, Lumis had to deal with Cameron Grimes, who attacked him for not answering his question the week prior.

Months ago, Lumis suffered an osteochondral lesion of the talus due to the targeted attacks by Timothy Thatcher. Lumis, Thatcher and Finn Balor competed in a triple threat match last week with Lumis winning and qualifying for the NXT North American Title Ladder Match at TakeOver XXX. Damian Priest ended up winning the match at TakeOver XXX to become the new North American Champion.
