NXT North American Champion Carmelo Hayes and Johnny Gargano are set to face off in tag team action.

WWE has announced that Hayes & Trick Williams vs. Gargano & Dexter Lumis will take place on next Tuesday’s episode of NXT. A feud between Hayes and Gargano began when Gargano set his sights on Hayes’ North American title last week.

Hayes won the North American Championship on NXT two weeks ago. After Isaiah “Swerve” Scott retained the title against Santos Escobar, Hayes cashed in his title shot contract and pinned Scott to become North American Champion.

Gargano interrupted Hayes on last week’s NXT, and their segment ended with Gargano and Lumis in possession of Hayes’ North American title belt. Hayes and Williams went to a haunted house on Halloween Havoc tonight to get the belt back from Gargano and Lumis.

WWE has also announced that Cameron Grimes will enter Duke Hudson’s Poker Room on next Tuesday’s NXT, and Tony D’Angelo will appear on Lashing Out with Lash Legend.
