Big Match Set For Wednesday’s NXT
June 8, 2020This week the champ is in non-title action.
Over the past few months NXT Champion Adam Cole has been dealing with The Velveteen Dream and the two’s feud came to an end at NXT Takeover: In Your House. With Cole dealing with Dream, Dexter Lumis has been looming in the shadows trying to best The Undisputed Era.
At Takeover, we saw Lumis basically kidnap Roderick Strong and Bobby Fish after Lumis put them in the trunk of a car and drove off. We do not know the status of Strong and Fish, but Cole will finally get his hands on Lumis this week. WWE has announced that in a non-title match this Wednesday NXT Champion Adam Cole will do one-on-one with Dexter Lumis.
.@AdamColePro IS still #NXTChampion!
And now, the record-breaking champ gets @DexterLumis in a non-title match THIS Wednesday on #WWENXT on @USA_Network!https://t.co/5MnxrUC3E2

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?
So far this non-title match is the only thing so far announced for NXT this week. Keep it locked PWUnlimited for more on this week’s NXT.
