WWE will present the first NXT special of the 2.0 era tonight. They are doing away with the TakeOver concept completely and this should be an interesting night at WarGames.
WWE’s WarGames event will air on Peacock, starting at 8:00 PM EST. They will also air a thirty-minute kickoff show before the event.
This event will feature two WarGames matches, one for the women and one for the men. Each match has a new vs old school feel to it. That is an obvious narrative that they are telling across the brand.
Two titles will be on the line as the NXT Tag Team Titles and the Cruiserweight Title are set to be defended. Cameron Grimes and Duke Hudson will also battle in a hair vs hair match.
We will have to see what the NXT 2.0 brand brings to the table, but a lot of things are obviously changing around the brand. You can check out the lineup below.
