Adam Cole Vs. Dexter Lumis And Finn Balor Vs. Cameron Grimes Announced For Wednesday's WWE NXT
Two big matches have been announced for Wednesday's WWE NXT episode on the USA Network, which will also feature fallout from Sunday's "Takeover: In Your House" event.
WWE has announced Finn Balor vs. Cameron Grimes in a recent rematch from Balor's loss on NXT TV, plus NXT Champion Adam Cole vs. Dexter Lumis in a non-title match.
Below is WWE's announcement on both matches:
Finn Bálor seeks retribution for last month's loss to Cameron Grimes
Finn Bálor achieved retribution against Damian Priest. Can he do the same against Cameron Grimes?
The Prince will look to respond to his only loss this year when he faces Grimes on NXT this week.
Fresh off his 11th NXT TakeOver victory this past Sunday over Priest, Bálor turns his attention to the man who beat him last month with The Archer of Infamy's help. Priest's brutal nightstick strike to Bálor left him a sitting duck for Grimes' Cave-In and the ensuing pinfall.
Despite the less-than-honorable way in which it came, it's a still a victory for Grimes in the record books. And the Technical Savage hasn't stopped gloating about it since.
NXT Champion Adam Cole takes on Dexter Lumis in non-title match
Adam Cole is still NXT Champion, but any celebration he had planned will again be on hold as he'll face the bizarre Dexter Lumis in a non-title match this Wednesday on USA Network.
While Cole fended off Velveteen Dream in a wild Backlot Brawl for the NXT Title at NXT TakeOver: In Your House, Lumis made his presence felt as well. Demonstrating a strange obsession with The Undisputed ERA in recent weeks, Lumis made his art a reality when he showed up to Cole's Backlot Brawl with Velveteen Dream, packing Roderick Strong and Bobby Fish into the trunk of a car and driving off into the night.
Just what kind of condition will The Panama City Playboy be in after another successful but brutal title defense? And will his Undisputed ERA allies be in any condition to have his back ? that is, if they'll even be around at all?
