Two New Title Matches Confirmed For NXT This Week

NXT this week will feature the fallout from Takeover: WarGames and Survivor Series. WWE has now confirmed two title matches for the episode.

The first match announced will be for the NXT Cruiserweight Championship. Lio Rush will defend his title against Akira Tozawa. Here is what WWE wrote about the match on their website:

Akira Tozawa challenges NXT Cruiserweight Champion Lio Rush

The NXT Cruiserweight Championship will be on the line Wednesday night, as well, as Lio Rush defends against Raw Superstar Akira Tozawa.

Tozawa has been impressive in recent weeks on Monday Night Raw, taking Superstars like Buddy Murphy and Andrade to the limit, as well as bringing the fight to Rush in a Triple Threat Match for the title during the Survivor Series Kickoff on Sunday. However, The Man of The Hour has been preoccupied in recent weeks with Angel Garza, who’s been playing mind games with Rush’s family. Can the champion keep his focus on Tozawa?

The second match announced will be for the NXT Tag Team Championships. The Undisputed Era will defend against Keith Lee & Dominic Dijakovic. Here is what WWE wrote about the match on their website:

Undisputed ERA to defend NXT Tag Team Titles against Lee & Dijakovic

Keith Lee & Dominik Dijakovic stood victorious alongside Tommaso Ciampa and Kevin Owens over The Undisputed ERA in WarGames on Saturday at NXT TakeOver. Now, the two titans will look to make it two in a row, as they challenge Kyle O’Reilly & Bobby Fish for the NXT Tag Team Championship tomorrow night.

Can The Undisputed ERA bounce back from their WarGames loss and hang on to their titles, or will Lee & Dijakovic bring their golden reign to an end?
