Two title matches, Evolution eliminator set for next week’s WWE NXT
Two title matches and a eliminator match are set for next week’s NXT.
Four matches took place on Tuesday to determine the fatal four way match for next week’s show that will crown a new number one contender for Jacy Jayne’s NXT Women’s title. Izzi Dame, Jaida Parker, Lash Legend, and Jordynne Grace will battle it out next week, with the winner facing Jayne at WWE Evolution on July 12 for the title.
A TNA Championship match was also set for next week. A six-man tag on Tuesday saw Yoshiki Inamura pin Trick Williams, seemingly setting up a future title match. However, Inamura told Briggs backstage he had a bigger plan: he would go after the NXT Championship while Briggs would be the one to get the TNA title match. It was later announced that TNA Director of Authority Santino Marella had made the match official for next week.
Noam Dar will defend his Heritage Cup title against Stacks. After Luca Crusifino accidentally struck Tony D’Angelo during a confrontation with Stacks, the two were arguing backstage in Ava’s office. D’Angelo wanted Crusifino to face Stacks to prove his loyalty, but Ava informed D’Angelo that Stacks was already set for a Heritage Cup title match, and it was set up by his consigliere. Crusifino denied he was behind setting up the match.
NXT lineup for June 24:
- TNA Championship: Trick Williams defends against Josh Briggs
- NXT Heritage Cup match: Noam Dar defends against Channing ‘Stacks’ Lorenzo
- Evolution eliminator fatal four way match: Izzi Dame vs. Jaida Parker vs. Lash Legend vs. Jordynne Grace
