Two new matches announced for next WWE NXT
A pair of new matches have been booked for next week’s WWE NXT episode.
Week three of NXT on The CW Network will feature Lexis King facing off against Oro Mensah in what’s being billed as a “Gentleman’s Duel.” Also added to the card is a grudge match between Riley Osborne and Ridge Holland.
The ruleset for the Gentleman’s Duel has not been revealed. The idea came up during a backstage segment on the most recent NXT episode. While speaking with Heritage Cup Champion Charlie Dempsey, King (Brian Pillman Jr.) wanted advice on how he and Mensah could fairly settle their rivalry.
King and Mensah traded victories in their past two matches with both cheating to win.
Osborne attacked Holland during an interview on NXT earlier this week, igniting a brawl between the two. Osborne — who lost to Holland when they faced off in September — is out for revenge after Holland betrayed Chase U.
