Keith Lee is still the NXT North American Champion despite a strong showing from Cameron Grimes.

The two faced-off for the title to open this week's episode, and although The Limitless One clearly had the size and power advantage, The Technical Savage was able to use his mat skills to take the bigger man out of his game and score a couple of near falls.

In the end, though, Lee was able to keep his opponent down with the Big Bang Catastrophe.

After the match, Damien Priest hit Lee from behind with a baton. Dominick Dijakovic came out to made the save, but Keith thought he was the one that attacked him and hit him with a powerbomb.

This is clearly setting up a Triple-Threat match down the line. Could we see it at TakeOver: Tampa, perhaps?
