WWE NXT Preview (12/4): Rhea Ripley vs. Dakota Kai

NXT is here.

WWE is coming off two straight weeks of beating AEW Dynamite in total viewership and will look to continue that trend.

Thus, it’s time to look ahead starting with tonight’s episode of NXT. 

The company is building up this show around two matches including Rhea Ripley vs. Dakota Kai as part of the fallout from Kai’s heel turn at NXT TakeOver: WarGames III and Kai wrestling Candice LeRae last week.

The company has yet to announce the main event match of this show. The build for the Adam Cole – Finn Balor feud is also slated to be furthered on this episode. 

WWE holds this show in Winter Park, Florida at Full Sail University. WWE is advertising the following items for tonight’s broadcast:

  • Killian Dain vs. Damian Priest has been scrapped as Priest isn’t medically cleared
  • Rhea Ripley vs. Dakota Kai
  • How will Adam Cole respond to Finn Balor’s attack?
  • Can Lio Rush and Angel Garza be kept apart?

WWE will also be creating new programs and building on the hype for existing feuds. As usual, fans should expect more matches and segments to be revealed this afternoon for NXT.
