NXT Champion Ilja Dragunov vs. Baron Corbin​

Baron Corbin looks to burn the ships and conquer when he challenges Ilja Dragunov for the NXT Championship at NXT Deadline.

Corbin and Dragunov have been at each other’s throats since before The Mad Dragon won the title from Carmelo Hayes, and now Corbin is out to prove that not only is he the most dangerous NXT Superstar, he’s also its best.

Will Dragunov stave off the determined Corbin, or is a new era in NXT set to begin?​

NXT North American Champion “Dirty” Dominik Mysterio vs. Wes Lee​

Wes Lee looks to regain the NXT North American Championship from the very Superstar that took it from him, “Dirty” Dominik Mysterio, in a match that Lee has been looking forward to for months.

Lee’s record reign as champion came to an abrupt halt thanks Dirty Dom and The Judgment Day, prompting Lee to leave NXT only to make a triumphant return a few months later.

Mysterio granted Lee a championship opportunity under the condition that he win a Fatal 4-Way Match consisting of Johnny Gargano, “Big” Bronson Reed and Cameron Grimes, a match that Lee won much to the dismay of the champion.

Trick Williams earned the right to be in the match after a hard-fought victory against Joe Coffey.

Josh Briggs earned a spot by stunning Carmelo Hayes with some help from Lexis King.

Bron Breakker was next thanks to a devastating spear to Eddy Thorpe.

And I guess there's also Carmelo vs Lexis King but they don't have no graphics done for that yet.​

 

[King Kota]

feels like this men's iron survivor def trick to lose but, damn i appreciate that some of these guys in this are getting chance to shine dijak & Briggs.

 

[Jimmy King]

I’m rooting for Trick but I can see Bron or Dijak winning. Either way both Iron Survivor matches should be good I liked them a lot last year.

Dom vs Lee and Axiom vs Frazier should both be fun too.

 

[Bad News Booty]

Dijak v Iliga is overplayed
Trick is gonna get screwed
Bronn don’t need it
Briggs or Bate would benefit the most imo

 

[Cwalker]

I think Trick wins then gets screwed in the title match

 

[Dale]

What if we get a Punk appearance tonight since he said he has a meeting scheduled with HBK over the weekend

 

[Sky]

Why must this run against Impact this looks cool

 

[Chris]

@Smarklight Need a chat link for this tonight btw
