HUGE NXT Championship Match Confirmed For "NXT Super Tuesday"
All change on the black-and-gold brand again.
NXT have announced that Johnny Gargano, Tommaso Ciampa, Finn Bálor and Adam Cole will compete in a 60-minute fatal four-way Iron Man match on next week's "Super Tuesday" edition of the show.
A chaotic return to television for the brand following TakeOver: XXX saw brand new Champion Karrion Kross forced to surrender his newly-won prize due to a separated shoulder suffered during his victory over departing titleholder Keith Lee.
After opening the show to discuss the knock, the undefeated star left an hourglass by the belt to denote his intention to reclaim it upon his return. In the meantime the above outcome was arrived at following consultation throughout the night between General Manager William Regal, Triple H, Shawn Michaels and Matt Bloom.
All four men are former NXT Champions, with Regal noting that they'd all accumulated enough accolades over their careers to earn the out-of-the-blue opportunity. All four have suffered substantial and high profile losses over the last few months, and April's 'One Final Beat' was supposed to keep Ciampa and Gargano separated forever, or at least for now.
The match will likely headline next week's special edition of the show, ahead of both NXT and AEW moving back to their more familiar Wednesday slots on September 9th.
