The inaugural event of WWE NXT Great American Bash is shaping up to be a spectacle with three coveted titles at stake.
Roxanne Perez, the current NXT Women’s Champion, is set to defend her title against formidable contender Thea Hail, as confirmed earlier. Thea engaged in an open conversation this week, sharing insights into her journey as an underdog and her unwavering determination to seize the championship title.
Additionally, the NXT episode aired on July 23rd revealed two more title matches that will be added to the exciting card.
Following their victory against Karmen Petrovic and Sol Ruca, the Meta-Four’s duo, Lash Legend and Jakara Jackson, issued a challenge to Alba Fyre and Isla Dawn for a shot at the tag title. The pair, known as The Unholy Union, confirmed their acceptance to the challenge during an “X” session, paving the way for a thrilling WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship match slated for next week.
The fireworks don’t stop there. The D’Angelo Family orchestrated a backstage interaction with No Quarter Catch Crew during which, Tony D’Angelo expressed his desire to give Tavion Heights an opportunity at the NXT Heritage Cup. D’Angelo’s move serves to honor the upcoming Olympics as Heights represented the United States in the Men’s Greco-Roman competition during the 2020 Olympics.
Moreover, the much-anticipated live in-ring concert by Joe Hendry adds an extra layer of excitement to the NXT Great American Bash. Given the event’s jam-packed schedule, it is well-positioned to counterbalance the viewership issues, with the event set to air on SyFy as opposed to its regular USA Network slot.
Here’s a quick overview of what NXT has in store for next week:
– Roxanne Perez vs Thea Hail for the NXT Women’s Championship Match
– Tony D’Angelo vs. Tavion Heights battling out in the NXT Heritage Cup
– The Unholy Union (Alba Fyre & Isla Dawn) vs. Meta-Four (Jakara Jackson & Lash Legend) for the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship
– Joe Hendry’s live in-ring concert
– Contract negotiation between Ethan Page and Oro Mensah, before their NXT Championship match at NXT Great American Bash Week 2
