• 4 NXT Wrestlers Set For Friday’s SmackDown Taping
According to PWInsider, the following 4 NXT wrestlers will be present during Friday’s SmackDown taping in Kansas City:
– Io Shirai
– Dakota Kai
– LA Knight
– Roderick Strong
They will be there to wrestle dark (untelevised) matches most likely, because Vince McMahon might want to bring some of them up to the WWE main roster.
Knight and Strong worked this week’s WWE Main Event taping before RAW on Monday as well. Below are the results:
– LA Knight def. Cedric Alexander
– T-BAR def. Roderick Strong
After RAW went off the air, The Dirty Dawgs (Dolph Ziggler & Robert Roode) were getting interviewed backstage, when Roderick first passed them and then Knight walked past them.
Ziggler then asked what’s going on and Knight challenged Dirty Dawgs to come down to NXT 2.0.
