WWE

A number of main roster WWE stars have been confirmed for an upcoming run of shows in NXT over the coming days.

While WWE Crown Jewel takes place in Perth, Australia, on October 11, other members of the main roster will remain stateside for NXT.

Shawn Michaels confirmed the news in a post on his own Twitter account, revealing that Johnny Gargano and Tommaso Ciampa of #DIY, and Motor City Machine Guns will both be in action at upcoming NXT live events.

With NXT house shows taking place in Columbus, OH, Detroit, MI and Cleveland, OH on October 9, 10 & 11, respectively, Michaels stated that:

“Johnny Gargano and Tommaso Ciampa will be in action all three nights, and in their home town of Detroit, the Motor City Machine Guns will be in action as well.”

Main roster stars also made their return at NXT Homecoming on September 16, with #DIY losing to Carmelo Hayes and Trick Williams on that show.

The upcoming house shows mark the first time that Chris Sabin will have competed in NXT, with Shelley having appeared previously alongside Kushida.

#WWENXT's back on the road and we're not coming light.
