WWE Reportedly Changes The Finish Mid-Match At NXT Live Event

According to a report, WWE changed the finish of a match during NXT’s recent live event in Dallas. This was during the Kassius Ohno vs Chad Lail (better known as former TNA star Gunner) match.

Dave Meltzer on Wrestling Observer Radio (subscribe here), says that after Chad started to receive a lot of cheers, WWE flipped the originally planned outcome to have him win. Here is a quote (via Ringside News):

“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”

Anything can happen at a live event!
