Another Title Match Added To Tonight’s NXT

WWE has taken to social media and its website to announce another championship match for tonight’s episode of NXT on the USA Network.

The match will see Santos Escobar defend the Cruiserweight Championship against Jake Atlas.

WWE.com writes:

Jake Atlas made it clear last week that he’s far from finished with Legado del Fantasma and will have an NXT Cruiserweight Title opportunity tonight against Santos Escobar.

After Raul Mendoza and Joaquin Wilde aided Escobar to a non-title win against Atlas at NXT Halloween Havoc, the NXT Cruiserweight Champion was ready to move on from his latest challenger. Atlas had other plans, as the up-and-coming Superstar attacked Legado del Fantasma in the Capitol Wrestling Center parking lot last week.

Can Atlas end Escobar’s reign? Or will Legado del Fantasma strike back?

This comes in addition to Candice LeRae vs Toni Storm, Danny Burch & Oney Lorcan defending the Tag Team Title against Breezango, and Johnny Gargano defending his North American Title. News on how Gargano’s challenger will be determined can be found at this link.

WrestleTalk.com will of course have live coverage for tonight’s NXT as well as AEW Dynamite.
