On next week’s episode of WWE NXT, Karrion Kross will put his NXT Championship on the line against Johnny Gargano, and Samoa Joe will be sure to enforce the rules as the special guest referee.
During a heated face-off between Kross and Gargano at NXT Great American Bash, both Regal and Joe were on-hand to reveal the title match for next Tuesday’s episode. Kross and Gargano talked trash to each other, with Gargano claiming he’s going to prove Karrion isn’t at his level. In response, the champion made his WWE goals crystal clear by noting his desire to main event WrestleMania and win the WWE Championship.
