A new No. 1 contender will be determined for New Year’s Evil.
In a rematch from several weeks back, Pete Dunne and Kyle O’Reilly will fight for an opportunity to challenge Finn Balor for the NXT Championship. Dunne is no stranger to holding gold as the 27-year-old is a former NXT UK Champion; however, O’Reilly has yet to win a major singles belt in the black-and-gold brand. Will tonight be the first step of O’Reilly’s journey to becoming the NXT Champion?
Former NXT Champion Karrion Kross will officially make his in-ring return tonight as well. Last week, Kross made a big statement by violently assaulting former NXT North American Champion Damian Priest. What will be in store for the undefeated big man in his first match since TakeOver: XXX?
Also, expect Toni Storm, NXT North American Champion Johnny Gargano, Leon Ruff, and Rhea Ripley to be in action. Check out the advertised line-up below:
Karrion Kross makes his in-ring return
Pete Dunne vs. Kyle O'Reilly (winner will face NXT Champion Finn Balor at New Year's Evil)
Toni Storm vs. Rhea Ripley
Kushida and Leon Ruff vs. Austin Theory and Johnny Gargano
