Next month, WWE NXT will move to The CW as part of the biggest contract in the 14-and-a-half-year history of the show. WWE has already announced some big plans for the move and fans can expect multiple championships to be on the line.
Giulia Wants Roxanne Perez
At WWE NXT No Mercy, Giulia made her long-anticipated debut and confronted NXT Women’s Champion Roxanne Perez following the Prodigy’s win over Jaida Parker. On this week’s WWE NXT, the two again came face-to-face. After Giulia dispatched of Chelsea Green, the Japanese sensation needed just three words to make her intentions clear.
Ethan Page’s Title Defense
WWE NXT Champion Ethan Page was also around this week, fresh off his victory at NXT No Mercy over Joe Hendry. The All-Ego champion argued that he, not Trick Williams should be kicking off the show, while Williams retorted saying he’s coming for the NXT title.
Page said that he intends to defend his championship when NXT moves to the CW next month, though doubted Trick would make it to the premiere show on October 1. Williams was then ambushed by Pete Dunne. A double count-out finish during their match later in the night led to Ava announcing a Last Man Standing rematch for next week’s show.
WWE NXT on The CW
It’s not just high-stakes action that fans can expect when WWE NXT moves to the CW on October 1. With the premiere episode set to take place in Chicago, Illinois, CM Punk will be at the show. One week later, WWE NXT will travel to St. Louis, Missouri, and the city’s own Randy Orton will be around. Stay tuned to SEScoops for all the latest from WWE NXT and its impending move.
