William Regal Announces #1 Contender Triple Threat Match; Winner To Face NXT Champion At TakeOver: In Your House
Next week should be a big-time follow-up to this week’s main event on NXT and you can thank William Regal for that. Finn Balor is battled Karrion Kross for the World Title in the episode’s final 15 minutes, but before the bell even sounded to start the match, General Manager Regal made it known that their will be a triple threat match next week to determine who will face the NXT Champion at TakeOver: In Your House.
The competitors in next week’s match will be Johnny Gargano taking on Pete Dunne and Kyle O’Reilly. All three men have made their intentions clear to Karrion Kross as that tile puts a target on the back of the big man. Two weeks ago, it was O’Reilly and Dunne confronting the champion in the center off the ring as both wanted their shot at the belt. Kross seemed game for any challenge headed his way, but Gargano made his presence known when he and Austin Theory attacked the champion from behind. Either way, the winner will certainly have a tall order ahead of them at In Your House and not just that, but under Todd Pettengill’s observation.
