New WWE NXT Cruiserweight Champion Jordan Devlin will return to TV during next Wednesday's NXT episode on the USA Network.

Devlin won the title at Saturday's WWE Worlds Collide event by winning the Fatal 4 Way over Isaiah "Swerve" Scott, Travis Banks, and former champion Angel Garza. This is the first time that a NXT UK Superstar has held a title from the main NXT brand.
