Two title matches booked for next WWE NXT

The NXT North American Championship and NXT Tag Team Championship will be on the line on the Tuesday, April 29 WWE NXT episode.

After retaining his North American title at Stand & Deliver over Ethan Page, Ricky Saints will defend against Lexis King on next week’s episode. King challenged Saints to a title match in an in-ring promo segment on this week’s show.

Had King retained his Heritage Cup trophy on Tuesday’s show, that also would have been on the line next week, but King lost to the returning Noam Dar. Later in the show as Page confronted Saints backstage, King attacked the champ ahead of their title bout next week.

The NXT Tag Team titles will also be defended on the April 29 show.

After defeating Fraxiom for the Tag titles at Stand & Deliver, Hank Walker and Tank Ledger will make their first defense on next week’s episode against Josh Briggs and Yoshiki Inamura.

Next week’s lineup is listed below. Our report from Tuesday’s WWE NXT episode is here.
