WWE is planning a big episode of NXT tonight with the fallout after NXT TakeOver: In Your House. William Regal is set to make a big announcement that will create a change in NXT. Now we know that it will kick off the show.
According to a report from PW Insider, William Regal’s big announcement will kick off tonight’s show. That will hopefully get a lot of fans to tune in at the beginning which will give the company a better chance at retaining that viewership as the show goes on.
Those fans might want to stick around, because they have a big main event planned. Tommaso Ciampa and Timothy Thatcher are set to do battle against Grizzled Young Veterans in a tornado tag match. They will close out the show with that contest.
Samoa Joe is expected to be William Regal’s on-screen replacement, but Triple H already made it clear that Regal is not totally leaving the brand.
We will have to see what else WWE decides to throw at fans this week during NXT. They have a lot of things to handle, including determining a new #1 contender for Karrion Kross’ title after he demolished all other top contenders.
