The September 8 episode of WWE NXT is shaping up to be a great show and it will build towards the next Premium Live Event. So, the company has booked solid matches to keep fans engaged throughout the night.
NXT Women’s Championship: Kelani Jordan vs. Jaida Parker
Kelani Jordan beat Kendal Grey to win the NXT Women’s Championship at NXT Heatwave but she was immediately challenged by Jaida Parker last week. So, WWE wasted no time in booking the match and now Jordan will put her title on the line against Miss Parker. So, we’ll have to see how she will fare against Parker.
NXT North American Championship: Jackson Drake vs. Tavion Heights
Jackson Drake will also defend the NXT North American Championship against Tavion Heights. Drake won the title back at Heatwave and he was confronted by Heights last week, leading to a heated argument. Heights then challenged Drake for the match and WWE finally booked it. So, it remains to be seen whether Heights can end up pulling off the upset win and becoming the new champion.
