WWE NXT is gearing up for another exciting week with several title matches on the cards for Tuesday. The Great American Bash may have concluded, but the rush of adrenaline from engaging title matches continues to heighten the anticipation among fans.
On the thrilling episode dated August 6th, numerous occurrences led directly to bouts announced for the ensuing week’s edition, featuring three championships involved. Axiom and Nathan Frazer successfully defended the NXT Tag Team Championship against MSK (Wes Lee and Zachary Wentz). However, the suspense for the next No. 1 contenders was instantly unveiled as Ridge Holland announced that he and Andre Chase would be challenging the winners in next week’s Tag Team Championship contest. This announcement irked Duke Hudson, as he initially believed he would be teaming up with Chase as per tradition.
Meanwhile, Tony D’Angelo made an intriguing proposition to the No Quarter Catch Crew. He presented an offer suggesting that if Wren Sinclair emerged victorious in her match against Kendal Grey (which indeed happened), and if Charlie Dempsey and Myles Borne permitted her to join No Quarter Catch Crew, Dempsey would be afforded a shot at the NXT Heritage Cup.
In an interesting development, Oba Femi made an impromptu stop which led to some rude interruptions. However, as he exited the WWE Performance Center, he disclosed during a parking lot interview his intention to defend the NXT North American Championship the following week in an open contest. This news was promptly followed by an interruption from Tony D’Angelo and The D’Angelo Family to proclaim that the Heritage Cup match had been secured.
Along with these thrilling contests, Eddy Thorpe and Lexis King will revitalize their rivalry once more. Their ongoing feud escalated when they were forcibly separated during a backstage interaction.
As of now, NXT has not revealed its strategy to address other ongoing feuds. Speculation is rife concerning potential matches for the Women’s division titles, with contenders like Lola Vice and Jaida Parker voicing their claims for a shot at the NXT Women’s North American Championship. There are also rumblings about a potential multi-woman title match involving Roxanne Perez.
As it stands, the lineup for the following week includes:
– A faceoff between Eddy Thorpe and Lexis King
– NXT Tag Team Championship Match: The Supersonic Duo (Axiom & Nathan Frazer) (c) vs. Chase University (Andre Chase & Ridge Holland)
– NXT North American Championship Match: Oba Femi (c) vs. TBA
– NXT Heritage Cup Match: Tony D’Angelo (c) vs. Charlie Dempsey
