Kelani Jordan defends NXT title vs Kendal Grey

NXT Women’s Champion Kelani Jordan is set to defend her title against Kendal Grey on the November 17 episode of the show. The matchup was made official by NXT General Manager Robert Stone on this week’s broadcast following a direct confrontation. Grey had previously held the championship until losing it to Jordan at Heatwave in August.

Grey was unable to cash in her rematch clause immediately after the Heatwave defeat because she was not medically cleared for several weeks. She returned to action after recently receiving clearance and used this week’s episode to inform Jordan of her renewed pursuit of the title. Stone then confirmed the rematch for next week’s program.

The November 17 card will also feature Tony D’Angelo facing Kam Hendrix in singles competition. D’Angelo is coming off a loss in his title challenge against Grayson Waller at Halloween Havoc. The two competitors got into a backstage scuffle during this week’s NXT, which led to the match being booked.

Zilla Fatu issued a challenge to DarkState leader Dion Lennox for a match on the November 17 show. The challenge prompted an immediate large-scale brawl that included Fatu, the entire DarkState group, Birthright, and AAA’s Perros Del Mal. The chaotic fight served as the closing segment of this week’s episode.
