Two more segments have been announced for tonight’s WWE NXT episode on the USA Network.
Io Shirai will appear in the ring to address the NXT Universe. WWE is teasing that she may still have her sights on NXT Women’s Tag Team Champion Candice LeRae, or be looking to accomplish something else in NXT.
Shirai returned last week with Poppy and took LeRae out during a segment, making her first appearance since losing the NXT Women’s Title to Raquel Gonzalez at “Takeover: Stand and Deliver” during WrestleMania 37 Weekend in April.
WWE has also announced that a Coronation Ceremony will be held tonight for new Million Dollar Champion LA Knight. WWE Hall of Famer “The Million Dollar Man” will be there to officially present the belt to Knight.
Knight became the first Million Dollar Champion in more than a decade after defeating Cameron Grimes in a Ladder Match at “Takeover: In Your House” this past Sunday.
As noted, tonight’s NXT show is scheduled to open with a promo by NXT General Manager William Regal, while the Tornado Rules tag team match is scheduled to close the show.
