How Finn Balor’s NXT TakeOver Challenger Will Be Decided

During tonight’s episode of WWE NXT, we found out how Finn Balor’s challenger for the October 4 TakeOver will be decided.

General Manager William Regal announced that next week’s show will see the first ever ‘Gauntlet Eliminator’ match, with the winner challenging Balor for the NXT Title at TakeOver.

Here are the rules:

  • Two men will start in the ring
  • Every four minutes, another competitor will enter
  • The only way to be eliminated is via pinfall or submission
  • The last man standing will be named the #1 contender

We don’t yet know who any of the participants will be, but we know there will be five in total.

Also announced for next week is a Battle Royal to determine who will challenge Io Shirai for the Women’s Championship at TakeOver.
