Oney Lorcan & Danny Burch make their return to NXT.

Oney Lorcan makes his return from injury on NXT this Wednesday.

Oney Lorcan & Danny Burch have not competed as a tag team since NXT Takeover: Chicago 2. Oney Lorcan suffered from a broken orbital bone at NXT Takeover: Chicago 2 and as a result, the two have not appeared on NXT together since then. A video package of the 2 appeared on NXT a few weeks ago saying that they will be returning soon. They will return this Wednesday night. Given the fact that the two will probably face two jobbers that only appear at live events, so Oney Lorcan & Danny Burch will probably get the win.

Final Prediction: Oney Lorcan & Danny Burch win their return match.

Shayna Baszler in-action

Shayna Baszler will be in-action on NXT.

Shayna Baszler returned to NXT last week and confronted Kairi Sane. She will have her first match since losing the NXT Women's Title to Kairi Sane at NXT Takeover: Brooklyn 4. She will hope to gain some momentum before she invokes her rematch clause against Kairi Sane. Shayna Baszler may face someone like Taynara Conti or Deonna Purrazzo. There is no chance that Shayna Baszler will be losing this match.

Final Prediction: Shayna Baszler destroys whoever she faces tonight.

Lars Sullivan vs Raul Mendoza

Raul Mendoza is out for revenge on NXT this week.

Lars Sullivan attacked both EC3 & Raul Mendoza on NXT 2 weeks ago. Raul Mendoza will have the first opportunity to gain vengeance against 'The Leviathan'. Raul Mendoza will have an opportunity to score the biggest victory of his career this Wednesday. Lars Sullivan defeated Raul Mendoza the last time these 2 superstars faced off with each other. The same thing will likely happen this week (with some possible interference from EC3 after the match).

Final Prediction: Lars Sullivan defeats Raul Mendoza and is then attacked by a returning EC3.

Bianca Belair vs Nikki Cross

This will help determine who will be the next challenger for the NXT Women's Championship.

Bianca Belair will face her biggest challenge since she joined the NXT roster. Nikki Cross has taken the likes of Asuka to the limit. Nikki Cross and Bianca Belair had a bit of an encounter in William Regal's office during the Aleister Black investigation.

This has the potential to be a great match. However, with Nikki Cross biding her time in NXT before she makes her inevitable main roster debut, it is likely that she will put Bianca Belair over in this matchup who has been a rising star in the NXT Women's division.

Final Prediction: Bianca Belair continues her undefeated streak by defeating Nikki Cross
