The next WWE NXT TakeOver event will be taking place on October 4th. WWE is trying to make the card as stacked as possible and now another title match has been added to the card.
It was announced by the company that Isaiah “Swerve” Scott will be getting a shot at the NXT Cruiserweight Title at the TakeOver event. He will be facing Escobar for the title.
It is likely this match will be the final match to be added depending on Tyler Breeze’s status. Breeze has been absent since last week’s episode of NXT.
It was also said that a former NXT Champion will be appearing at the event.
