There was a big return on tonight’s edition (February 7) of WWE NXT as the NXT Championship picture continues to evolve.
Carmelo Hayes kicked off the show with a fiery promo before interrupted by a potential roadblock on his journey toward Bron Breakker’s NXT Championship.
JD McDonagh interrupted Carmelo Hayes and challenged him to a match for later in the night.
