The 9/7 installment of NXT will feature the in-ring debut of the Mei Ying character. NXT talent Karen Q is the individual portraying the character.

There are going to be two tag title matches next week. MSK (Nash Carter & Wes Lee) are putting their NXT Tag Titles on the line against Oney Lorcan and Danny Burch. Lorcan and Burch never lost the titles and had to relinquish them due to Burch’s separated shoulder injury. The NXT Women’s Tag Titles will be defended as well as the champions Io Shirai and Zoey Stark meet Kayden Carter and Kacy Catanzaro.

Two additions were made to Diamond Mine. The Creed Brothers, Julius and Brutus are now a part of the group. ‘Julius’ is collegiate wrestler Jacob Kasper and ‘Brutus’ is Drew Kasper.

Kay Lee Ray confirmed that she is officially a part of NXT U.S. and she is going to be in action on 9/7 against Ember Moon.

Mandy Rose had her first match on NXT TV since 2017. She went one-on-one with Sarray and the match ended after Rose was counted out. She took a dropkick to the face from Sarray and was immediately taken to the back by Gigi Dolin and Jacey Jane.

L.A. Knight scored a win over Johnny Gargano. In the main event, Tommaso Ciampa gave Ridge Holland his first pin fall loss since returning to NXT. Also, scheduled for next week is Santos Escobar versus Breakout tournament winner Carmelo Hayes.
