WWE NXT Deadline card finalized, new matches added
WWE NXT has finalized the card for Saturday’s Deadline PLE in San Antonio adding two new matches, and making several other key announcements.
In new bouts added, NXT North American Champion Ethan Page will put his title on the line against Mr. Iguana from AAA. Iguana stole Page’s car from the NXT parking lot on Thursday’s show to set up the grudge match.
Also newly added, Tatum Paxley and Izzi Dame will go one-on-one at Deadline. Dame cost Paxley the NXT Women’s Championship by turning against her at NXT Gold Rush last month to lay the groundwork for the bout.
It was also announced during Tuesday’s NXT TV go-home show for Deadline that the men’s NXT Championship match with Ricky Saints defending against Oba Femi will open the PLE.
Finally, by virtue of his pinfall victory in the eight-man tag main event on Tuesday’s show, Myles Borne gets to choose his entry position in the men’s Iron Survivor Challenge bout at Deadline to crown a new number one contender to the NXT title.
