NXT Preview: Dream match to kickstart the show, huge title change in store? (December 18, 2019)

#1 The invasion continues

After NXT picked up a historic victory at Survivor Series, they are now set for yet another collision, this time within the brand itself. NXT UK and NXT are set to engage in a war for brand supremacy right before Royal Rumble. Needless to say, they are leaving no stone unturned in building up to the event and the invasion angle is likely to continue this week.

Last week, we saw Matt Riddle defeat Kassius Ohno in a Single’s match whereas Travis Banks picked up a shocking victory over The Forgotten Sons’ Jaxson Ryker. As we head closer to World Collide 2020, one can safely assume that the British Superstars will once again be keen on making a statement on the USA Network.

Could we see the NXT UK Champions arriving at Full Sail University tonight? If so, how would they fare against the likes of Keith Lee, Matt Riddle, Tommaso Ciampa, and Dominick Dijakovic? Stay tuned to find out.
