Two new matches announced for WWE NXT

Two matches have been added to the lineup for NXT this week. 

WWE announced today that Blair Davenport vs. Kelani Jordan, and Ivy Nile vs. Kiana James will take place on Tuesday’s show. 

Jordan called out Davenport in a social media post over the weekend after Dana Brooke told her to find her “killer instinct” on last week’s show. 

“Dana told me to call somebody out and find my killer instinct and I’ve been thinking about her advice over and over again, so why not take it? I’m calling out one of the most feared women in NXT, Blair Davenport,” Jordan said in a video posted on 8/5. 

Nile comes into her match against James following a loss to Tiffany Stratton in her last match on the 7/11 show. James defeated Gigi Dolin in her last televised match on 7/18. 

WWE made both matches official on Monday.
