Tiffany Stratton and Wendy Choo put heated rivalry to bed in Lights Out Match​

Tiffany Stratton has haunted Wendy Choo’s dreams for weeks, but the sleepy Superstar has a few nightmares of her own for “The Buff Barbie Doll.”

From the constant ridicule, to winning their first encounter, to eliminating Choo from the 20-Woman Battle Royal, Stratton has gotten underneath Choo’s skin. Without her beauty sleep, the once bubbly Choo is now more serious and determined than ever to strike back at Stratton, ambushing her in the dark in her dressing room.

With stakes raised for their rematch, will it be lights out for Stratton or Choo?

“The Grayson Waller Effect” debuts with guest Apollo Crews​

Feeling that no one is asking the tough questions, Grayson Waller has taken it upon himself to debut a brand-new talk show: “The Grayson Waller Effect.”

And for the first episode, Waller has invited Apollo Crews to find out the truth behind Crews’ intentions on NXT 2.0.

The Gallus Boys look to bring home the NXT UK Tag Team Titles​

The longest-reigning NXT UK Tag Team Champions have stormed onto NXT 2.0, and they want their titles back.

During an explosive NXT Heatwave, The Gallus Boys established dominance by laying waste to Diamond Mine before turning their attention to Josh Briggs & Brooks Jensen.

The NXT UK Tag Team Champions are always ready for a fight, as evidenced by the brawl that nearly broke out when Gallus stepped to Briggs & Jensen, but can they topple the faction that held the titles for nearly 500 days?​

Tyler Bate set to collide with Von Wagner​

NXT UK Champion Tyler Bate made a shocking arrival this past Tuesday when he stood eye-to-eye with NXT Champion Bron Breakker, but if Bate wants to plant his flag on NXT 2.0, he’ll have to go through Von Wagner’s jungle.

Can The Big Strong Boi topple the towering Superstar, or will he quickly realize that he’s living in Wagner’s World?

Find out tonight on NXT 2.0 at 8/7 C on USA!

They were pushed quite hard there tbh

Has his UK Title win even aired yet??

Lmao no, and people get really mad if you bring up how weird it is bc "no one watches NXT UK" but the brand is dead anyway so clearly they don't care, I'm assuming there aren't anymore episodes left to air after his title win and there won't be anymore tapings either

They're trying to sell an NXT show on the strength of the NXT UK crossover matches. If you're going to ignore NXT UK continuity, what does that say about how much the guys who just debuted on your show matter?

They're not tho, they're trying to sell a Worlds Collide show taking place in the UK lol like it's stupid but its also not that deep

Should be a "lolwwe" and move on not a thinkpiece nor does it need to be defended by anyone like people are oddly doing too, it's a minor funny thing bc the show is literally canceled lmao

 

[Chris]

I'm becoming more annoyed by wrestling fans by the day if you can't tell lol

 

[Chris]

Pretty sure the world's collide thing wouldn't have happened if Vince was still in charge either, most of the reports prior seemed to be under the assumption the Sunday NXT show that weekend would just he at the PC like usual. So it's pretty obvious Trips decided to do this last minute but it was too late for him to change when the tapings aired lol

 

[Dale]

Have they said where the Worlds Collide event is happening or did I miss that?

In that press release about NXT Europe I believe they confirmed it was in the UK somewhere, early start time I remember for sure

Just checked and it doesn't seem to say the location, only says it will be at 4ET so that would be soon as Clash ends
