Just hours before WWE NXT goes live tonight, WWE posted new backstage footage teasing a possible surprise matchand fans are already talking.
In the clip, Karmen Petrovic is seen being confronted WWE Evolve Womens Champion Kali Armstrong in a tense verbal exchange. Things didnt get physical, but the conversation clearly escalated. Petrovic ended the segment by stating her intention to get the match made official.
Since because you want to run your mouth, why I dont I talk to Ava about taking that title off you, Petrovic said.
Armstrong, who currently holds the Evolve Womens Title, didnt back down during the confrontation, but WWE has yet to confirm whether the match will take place tonight. Tonights scheduled card already includes:
- Tony DAngelo vs. Channing Stacks Lorenzo vs. Luca Crusifino in a triple threat match
- Trick Williams, Joe Hendry & Mike Santana vs. DarkState in six-man tag action
With the addition of a potential grudge match between Petrovic and Armstrong, NXT could deliver even more surprises when it airs live from the Capitol Wrestling Center in Orlando, Florida, at 8 PM ET on The CW Network. The episode will also be available internationally via Netflix.
Ringside Newswill be providing live play-by-play coverage of tonights show over in ourWWE NXT coveragehub. It promises to be a memorable episode for many reasons, so it remains to be seen how the show will turn out.
