WWE NXT results 6/29/10:

Host Ashley Valence was up at the top of the ramp to open the NXT show. Ashley informed fans about voting which starts tonight at 10PM on WWE.com. She introduced each of the NXT rookies one-by-one and they lined up on the top of the ramp. Ashley's intros were rather quick for the names of the rookies.

Ashley revealed that in a surprise move whoever is ranked last tonight will be eliminated. Cole and Grisham joked that maybe Ashley should be eliminated. She kicked it over to Matt Striker, who announced tonight's first Season 2 Challenge - "The Keg Carry".

Michael McGillicutty - Eliminated DQ (dropped keg)
Lucky Cannon - 12.7
Percy Watson - 13.0
Eli Cottonwood - 13.3
Kaval - DQ'd said the keg weighs as much as him and he wouldn't risk his body unless it's in the ring for the fans.
Titus O'Neil - DQ, tripped and fell
Husky Harris - DQ, dropped keg

Striker asked him if he got hurt on that. Husky grabbed the mic and stared at Striker telling him he was brave to ask him a question this week. Husky said to back off and he'd worry bout himself.

Alex Riley - 13.8

Lucky Cannon won immunity in the first challenge so he can't be eliminated tonight. Matthews said only four guys finished the challenge without a DQ. He and Cole sent it to the background story video on Showtime Percy Watson.

MVP vs. Husky Harris

Michael Cole mentioned that Rhodes was embarassed by Husky Harris on Smackdown this past Friday due to his weight and lack of good body image. During the match, MVP gained control after a running kick took out Harris in the corner. Harris fell to the outside and Rhodes went over to give him a pep talk as NXT went to break.

Husky was able to take control after break using a variety of moves to wear down MVP. He went for 3 pin attempts after one move with MVP kicking out. MVP finally rolled out of the way on Husky's running senton bomb attempt. MVP hit the facebuster on Husky followed by the Ballin elbow drop. He appeared to hurt his side though. Husky went at him, but MVP still was able to hit the 305 for the victory.

Dashing Cody Rhodes looked upset over his rookie's loss on the outside. Cody got in the ring as MVP was offering a handshake to Husky. Husky told him he was close to a win, then left the ring without shaking hands.

Winner: MVP wins via pinfall over Husky Harris.
