NXT has a big episode this week, with both the tag team championships and NXT women’s championships on the line. The matches for tonight were taped on February 1st 2017 from Full Sail University.
NXT Women’s Championship Match Asuka (c) vs. Peyton Royce
Royce earned the right to face Asuka by defeating Liv Morgan and Ember Moon in a 3-way match last week. Receiving a title match on NXT is a big achievement for the 24-year old Royce, who had mainly been used to put over other superstars until she began pairing up with Billie Kay in recent months.
As for Asuka she has defended the title successfully 4 times since defeating Bayley at NXT Takeover: Dallas over WrestleMania weekend last year
NXT Tag Team Championship Match Authors of Pain (c) vs. DIY
The Authors of Pain defeated DIY for the titles over Royal Rumble weekend in San Antonio, but Gargano and Ciampa have a chance to win them back on tonight’s show. If this feud is going to continue, DIY will need a win here.
The following is a preview for tonight’s episode of NXT on the WWE Network:
Pete Dunne vs. Mark Andrews
The UK division gets more time on NXT programming.
NXT Champion Bobby Roode vs. No Way Jose (non-title)
Roode is not going to want to drop a non-title match as he builds towards an eventual rematch with Nakamura.
No Way Jose has been hovering around mid-card status for his entire NXT tenure, but a win over Roode could change that however.
NXT Women’s Championship #1 Contender’s Match Peyton Royce vs. Ember Moon vs. Liv Morgan
Royce was the only of the 3 in this match to have also been in the fatal 4-way title match at Takeover: San Antonio. She has the momentum going into this match seeing as her and partner Billie Kay defeated Moon and Morgan in a tag match last week.
