The 3/1 episode of NXT 2.0 contained a lot of new developments for both character arcs and their upcoming events.

North American Championship Ladder Match
Carmelo Hayes, after successfully defending his NXT North American Championship against Pete Dunne, took to the microphone to announce that he will be defending the championship in a ladder match. The match will take place at NXT Stand & Deliver on Saturday, April 2, as a part of WrestleMania weekend. Hayes claimed that he wanted to defend the championship in the match that the belt was “founded in”.
Amari Miller Injured
Amari Miller, after having a match with Lash Legend, was unfortunately stretchered off from the NXT set. We did not receive an on-air update or announcement. However, a fan in the NXT audience was able to record a video of what happened after the match.
Lash Legend defeated Amari Miller after the implosion of their tag team last week. We are still yet to receive an update on her injury or a timetable.
We at SEScoops would like to send our best wishes to Amari Miller and wish her a speedy recovery.
