After Oba Femi’s title exit following the main event of “WWE NXT: New Year’s Evil,” General Manager Ava laid out the game plan to determine the new NXT Champion on Tuesday’s episode. On February 3, six men will compete for gold in a ladder match.
Ava kicked off the show in the ring with the men’s lineup surrounding the ring. She told them there’s no better time than now for newcomers, those who feel left out and others who feel like they’ve been struggling forever. As she talks, Ricky Saints’ music plays and he comes to the ring. He said he’s done running the Stand & Deliver main event now that Femi, Je’Von Evans and Trick Williams are on the main roster and he’s looking forward to becoming a two-time NXT Champion. He said he would shut up and let Ava give him the title.
