Dominik Dijakovic made his return to the ring last night after undergoing surgery to repair a torn meniscus in early May.
Dijakovic defeated Cezar Bononi at an NXT house show in Cocoa, FL in his return.
Dijakovic was in the midst of a feud with Velveteen Dream over the NXT North American Championship when he got injured, and appeared to be headed towards a match with Dream at TakeOver: XXV last month.
