A new match has been announced for tonight’s episode of WWE NXT on the USA Network.
WWE had Austin Theory take to his Twitter account to announce that he would be facing Kushida in a singles match on the show.
Also, it appears that WWE is doing an angle where they’re teasing that Johnny Gargano could be out of his North American Title match against Kushida at NXT TakeOver: Vengeance Day. WWE still has the title match advertised on their website and the NXT Twitter account reacted to what Theory had to say, but never confirmed whether the match is off.
