Number one contender qualifying matches set for next week’s WWE NXT
Two NXT Championship qualifying matches will take place on next week’s show.
On Tuesday, it was announced that a six-person ladder match would determine the next NXT Champion on the February 3 edition of the program. The first two qualifying matches will take place on next week’s show. The first will feature Josh Briggs taking on Shiloh Hill, the latter of whom failed to win the TNA International title from Stacks.
The second qualifying match will have Sean Legacy taking on Eli Knight, the latter of whom has officially been called up to NXT from EVOLVE.
The North American title will also be on the line when Ethan Page defends against the debuting Elio LeFleur. After Page argued with Ava about being put in the ladder match, the NXT General Manager said he should be focused on the North American title instead, setting up next week’s title match.
A three-way tag team match will also determine the next challengers for the TNA Knockouts Tag team titles that are currently held by the IInspiration. Sol Ruca & Zaria, Fatal Influence, and Kendal Grey & Wren Sinclair will battle it out to determine the next number one contenders.
