NXT General Manager William Regal has announced that Dexter Lumis will get a shot at the North American Championship when he takes on the dominant Damien Priest tomorrow night.

The Tortured Artist was originally supposed to be part of the Five-Way Ladder Match at NXT TakeOver XXX that the Archer of Infamy would go on to win and claim the gold, but he was forced to forfeit his spot in the bout when he sustained an ankle injury.

For this reason, Regal believes he deserves shot at the title, and made the match official for Wednesday's show.

Lumis returned to in-ring action last week with a victory over Austin Theory, and hasn't been pinned or submitted in singles competition for quite a while. If he was scheduled to win that ladder match before getting injured, there's every chance he'll walk away with the NA Championship.
