Robert Stone certainly has his hands full since becoming the general manager of WWE NXT. With the newer talent coming up and wanting gold, there has been more mayhem than Stone can control. Just last week there was a brawl backstage between Jasper Troy and DarkState that Stone could not stop. And to convince Mason Rook not to interfere in Tony D’Angelo’s title match, he was rewarded with a number-one contendership match next week. Next week we will find out who will be the next number one contender for both the NXT Men’s and Women’s Championships. We will also witness a pageant next week on NXT, where fans will help vote and decide who Mr. NXT is.
We will be graced by the presence of both Shiloh Hill and Tristan Angels as they battle in a Mr. NXT pageant that will have three special guest judges, along with the fans’ vote. This will truly be unlike anything we have ever seen in NXT. The men will compete in multiple categories to determine who is Mr. NXT. These categories include attire, talent, and public speaking. It will be very interesting to see as both men couldn’t be more opposite of each other. Even though we have seen Tristan Angels over the past few weeks on NXT, this will help the audience understand Angel’s personality more. After next week we will know who the number one contenders will be for both the NXT Men’s and Women’s Championship. The winners of these number one contender matches will challenge the champions at NXT Great American Bash on June 28.
Kelani Jordan and Wren Sinclair will meet next week. The winner of the match can look forward to a title opportunity against the champion, Lola Vice. Lola Vice has been proving that she is a fighting champion and doesn’t look to drop that title anytime soon. Mason Rook will be challenging Naraku next week to determine who will face Tony D’Angelo for the NXT Championship at Great American Bash. Both men are new faces to NXT, so it is very impressive that one of them will get an opportunity for the championship so early on in their time with the company. Furthermore, Tristan Angels and Shiloh Hill will compete in the Mr. NXT Pageant tonight. NXT General Manager Robert Stone has also announced a star-studded judging panel featuring reigning Evovle Champion Aaron Rourke, SmackDown Superstar Kit Wilson, and comedian Matt Matthews.
