WWE NXT Results - 5/10/2011

-It's time for the tenth week of NXT Redemption! The opening titles roll, and commentators William Regal and Todd Grisham welcome us from Nashville, Tennessee. It's William Regal's birthday today, and he will be in action tonight against Jacob Novak. Matt Striker is in the ring, and welcomes his co-host Maryse out to the ring. We get a recap of Kharma's attack on Maryse, and she then addresses the crowd. Maryse assures the crowd that she's doing fine.

With that said, out come the rookies. The pros (except for Hornswoggle, who is missing) are seated at their position on the stage and the rookies line up outside the ring. Striker announces that the first elimination will take place next week.

With that said, it's time for our first challenge of the night.

Challenge #1: King Of The Hill

-Each rookie must run to the ring, get a flag, run back and blow a horn in the ring. The rookie with the fastest time will win.

-Conor and Novak go through the ring while the other rookies run around the ring. Titus gets the flag first, pushes Conor out of the way, and gets to the ring first. Darren is close behind, but Titus blows the horn first and wins this very quick challenge.

Winner: Titus O'Neil, who wins 6 redemption points.

-Titus says to cut his music and says that Hornswoggle isn't on the stage. He doesn't know where he is. He asks Grisham where he is, and he asks Darren Young angrily where he is. Titus says that Darren's had issues with him all season, and he'll get answers out of Darren tonight, even if he has to beat them out of him.

Match #1: Titus O'Neil vs. Darren Young

-Chavo Guerrero is on commentary for this match. Titus forces Darren into the corner and asks "Where is he?" He does the same in another corner. He takes Darren down with a stiff shoulder block and hits a lariat which knocks Darren clear out of the ring. Darren says "I'm out of here" and walks down the ramp, but Titus follows him, grabs him, and throws him back into the ring. Titus continues to yell "Where is he?" as he continually beats Darren in the corner. Eventually Darren counters with a big boot and tries to keep Titus down with attacks to Titus' arm. Darren applies a side armbar to keep him grounded, but Titus picks him up and sidewalk slams him for a two-count. Titus whips Darren into the corner and charges him, but Darren moves out of the way. Darren starts slapping the arm and head of Titus before applying a modified wristlock on the seated Titus. Darren breaks the hold and hits a snapmare. Darren drops a few forearms for a two-count. Darren applies yet another version of an armlock, which Titus counters into an reverse electric chair drop. Titus hits a European uppercut and whips Darren. He then hits a powerslam on Darren for a two-count. Titus yells "Let's go, people!" and gets the crowd fired up. Titus tries to hit a boot on a reeling Darren, but Darren moves and Titus gets hung up on the second rope. Darren then rolls Titus up and gets the three-count. This is Titus' first loss on NXT, as Darren exits the ring laughing.

Winner: Darren Young

-A backstage segment from earlier today is shown. Conor is shown backstage with Vladimir, both wearing Sambo gear. Vlad is teaching technique, so they both lock up in a grapple. Conor says "this is kinda like dancing!" Vlad says "Dancing?" and drops Conor easily. Conor then tries to take Vlad down, but Vlad doesn't budge and takes Conor down with ease.

Match #2: Byron Saxton vs. Conor O'Brian

-Conor hits a hip toss on Byron and keeps hold of Saxton's arm. He wrenches Saxton's arm and hits knees to his elbow. He changes it to a hammerlock and goes for a quick pin to no avail. He whips Saxton, who hits a corkscrew elbow. Saxton then applies a wristlock onto Conor, who counters by tripping Saxton. Conor then hits a quick Indian deathlock and continues attacking Saxton's limbs. He applies a quick kneebar as well. Conor then gets a one-count. Byron fights out of the corner and tries to slam Conor's head into the corner, but Conor stops himself and takes out Byron's leg with a kick to the knee. Conor isn't letting Saxton up, continually stomping his legs. Conor tries for a quick pin, then transitions to a strange sharpshooter-esque hold and a spinning toe hold. Saxton fights out and hits his shoulder jawbreaker. Saxton's fired up and hits a number of clotheslines and a bulldog for a two-count. Byron goes to the second rope and hits a flying clothesline for the win.

Winner: Byron Saxton

-Yoshi comes in the ring to celebrate with Saxton, but Saxton gives Yoshi the cold shoulder. Yoshi tries to raise Byron's hand, but Byron rips his hand away. Saxton gets a mic and says "Yoshi, listen. I thought I told you last week. I'm doing this on my own" He says that Yoshi is too distracted with Maryse. He asks if Yoshi doesn't understand him because of the language barrier, but he says "Maybe you're just too stupid to understand," which makes Yoshi get into his face. Byron says that he doesn't want or need Yoshi, and leaves the ring.

-Lucky Cannon is backstage and goes to talk to Maryse. Cannon says he was worried about her after her attack on Kharma. Maryse says he should be worried about the purse he stole last week. Cannon says that he has a surprise for her, so they can be professional friends. Cannon gets a box and lets Maryse open it. Maryse pulls out a brand new purse and says "Oh, wow." Cannon says it's nothing for a girl like her. She's worth every penny. Maryse says that she's willing to put all of their problems behind them. Maryse wishes him luck in the elimination next week and walks off.

William Regal then comes to the ring with a smirk on his face.

Match #3: William Regal vs. Jacob Novak

-The two stare down, trotting around the ring, before Regal locks in a headlock. Novak reverses into a headlock of his own. Regal whips Novak and sends him flying over the top rope. JTG runs over and tells JTG to get up, but Regal stomps on JTG's foot from the apron. JTG talks to Novak while Regal waits in the ring. As he gets onto the apron, Regal flips Novak into the ring and pushes him into the corner. He hits some chest chops, then pulls him out, only to whip Novak back into the turnbuckle. Novak counters this time with an elbow, sending Regal out of the ring. The referee holds Novak back, and as the referee is distracted, JTG hits a dropkick on Regal on the outside.
