North American title match added to next week’s WWE NXT Gold Rush
A North American title match has been added to next week’s NXT Gold Rush event.
Wes Lee will defend the North American Championship against Tyler Bate, with Mustafa Ali as the special guest referee. After Lee, Bate, and Ali defeated Joe Gacy and the Dyad on Tuesday’s show, Ali suggested backstage that the two have a title match with himself as the special guest referee. Lee and Bate seemed to agree to the idea.
A three-way tag match will determine the next contenders for the NXT Tag Team Championship. Tank Ledger & Hank Walker will face off against Edris Enofe & Malik Blade and Josh Briggs & Brooks Jensen. All three teams have had singles matches against their tag team partners in recent weeks. Booker T announced on Tuesday’s show that a three-way match will determine the next challengers for the Tag Team titles on the second night of NXT Gold Rush.
Dana Brooke will take on Cora Jade. After Jade confronted Brooke on this week’s show, Brooke attacked Jade on the outside during a match against Hail, allowing Hail to score the victory.
Here is the card for next week’s NXT Gold Rush night one:
- World Heavyweight Championship: Seth Rollins defends against Bron Breakker
- North American Championship: Wes Lee defends against Tyler Bate with Mustafa Ali as special referee
- NXT Tag Team title number one contender’s three-way match: Tank Ledger & Hank Walker vs. Josh Briggs & Brooks Jensen vs. Edris Enofe & Malik Blade
