In an exciting turn of events, Wes Lee, the current North American Champion of WWE NXT, issued an open challenge for tonight’s match. Fans eagerly anticipated who would step up to the plate to take on the reigning champion. And to everyone’s surprise, Nathan Frazer returned from injury to answer the call.

The night started with chaos as several contenders brawled backstage, all vying for a chance at the championship. Dabba-Kato made an appearance but was quickly shut down by Apollo Crews. Finally, the spotlight shone on Frazer as he made his way to the ring, ready to take on Lee.

According to Vic Joseph, Frazer had been out of action since October 2022 due to injury. However, he eagerly awaited medical clearance to return to the game. With Frazer’s return, the question remains: how will the WWE NXT booker Shawn Michaels utilize his skills to create an unforgettable match? Only time will tell as the two contenders prepare for the North American Championship.

IT'S PURE CHAOS!!!
