The main event of the NXT New Year’s Evil special has been announced.
New Year’s Evil will be headlined by Tommaso Ciampa defending the NXT World Title against Bron Breakker.
Breakker vs. Ciampa II will be a rematch from the NXT Halloween Havoc main event back on October 26. Ciampa retained in that match, which was Breakker’s first big match since debuting.
The WWE NXT Women’s Title will be defended in a Triple Threat at the upcoming NXT New Year’s Evil special.
It was announced during tonight’s NXT 2.0 episode that NXT Women’s Champion Mandy Rose will defend her title against Cora Jade and Raquel Gonzalez in a Triple Threat during the first show of 2022.
Tonight’s NXT show saw Gonzalez call out Rose after defeating Dakota Kai in a Street Fight. Jade interrupted and the two had words over who would get to Rose and the strap first. Rose then interrupted from the big screen, live from a swimming pool somewhere, and said because she’s in a giving mood, she will give both Jade and Gonzalez a title shot at New Year’s Evil. Rose then had NXT Women’s Tag Team Champions Jacy Jayne and Gigi Dolin attack Jade and Gonzalez from behind to end the segment.
The NXT New Year’s Evil 2022 episode will air live on January 4 from the WWE Performance Center in Orlando. Below are a few related shots from tonight’s NXT 2.0, along with the current card:
