WWE NXT 2.0 will have some high stakes forthcoming as we head into next week’s episode.
As revealed on the 10/5 edition of the show, Tommaso Ciampa, who is scheduled to defend his NXT Title against Bron Breakker in three weeks’ time, will face Joe Gacy in singles action next Tuesday. If Gacy wins, he’ll be added to the title bout at “Halloween Havoc.” Elsewhere on the show, Kyle O’Reilly will team up with Von Wagner against Pete Dunne and Ridge Holland.
In the main event, Isaiah “Swerve” Scott will put his NXT North American Championship on the line against Santos Escobar before the reigning champions sets sail for SmackDown.
