Recent NXT Match Finish Reportedly Changed On the Fly
Dave Meltzer discussed a recent example of WWE changing a result halfway through a match during a recent NXT Live Event, which saw an unusual victor take place. The match was between Kassius Ohno and Chad Lail, which was slated for Ohno to win, but the crowd response saw them call an audible and change.
“There were a couple of fans in the very beginning going, ‘Chad, Chad, Chad’ for whatever reason. More and more people jumped in and pretty soon everyone is doing this. Chad Lail is heel in NXT but he’s never on TV so you wouldn’t know that and Ohno ia a babyface. So they’re doing this. In the middle of the match, all of a sudden it just flips. Ohno starts playing heel and loses. They just changed the match — completely changed everything on the fly. Yes, that’s what they did and Ohno would have won. Ohno always beats Lail and he lost. They changed the finish just so that the crowd would be real happy and they were.”
