Another WWE NXT star is headed to the EVOLVE promotion to work a match. On Saturday, during the EVOLVE 124 event, it was revealed that former WWE NXT Tag Team Champion Kyle O’Reilly would be wrestling at EVOLVE 125.
It appears that he’ll be taking on EVOLVE Champion Austin Theory at the show. At EVOLVE 121, Theory made a comment about how O’Reilly is deadweight. During EVOLVE 124, there was a video of O’Reilly stating that he wants to challenge Theory for the Title.
Austin Theory called Kyle O’Reilly “deadweight” and asked to join Undisputed Era. Adam Cole responded with “I’ll give you a call as soon as you hit puberty.” #EVOLVE121
