SPOILER On Stipulation Match Planned For WWE NXT Battleground

Gimmick match planned for WWE NXT Battleground 2024

A stipulation match will be made official for WWE NXT Battleground on next week's edition of NXT.

WWE taped the May 21 episode of NXT from the WWE Performance Center on Tuesday, May 14. The main event of the show saw Karmen Petrovic team with Natalya to take on Shayna Baszler and Lola Vice, with Natalya and Petrovic picking up the win. 

Post-match, though, Lola Vice turned on Shayna Baszler, knocking her to the mat before Baszler got back up and proceeded to choke out the former NXT Women's Breakout Tournament winner. This led to NXT General Manager Ava coming out to the stage and announcing that Lola Vice and Shayna Baszler will face off in an NXT Underground Match at NXT Battleground. The premium live event from NXT will be held on Sunday, June 9 at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas, Nevada. 

Two more talents will also qualify for the NXT North American Women's Title Ladder Match on the May 21 episode of NXT, with Jaida Parker defeating Brinley Reece and Fallon Henley picking up a win over Thea Hail. 

The North American Championship will be defended in a Triple Threat Match once again at NXT Battleground, with Joe Coffey and Wes Lee being declared co-winners of a Triple Threat number one contender's match that also featured Josh Briggs. As a result, Oba Femi will put his belt on the line against both Joe Coffey and Wes Lee. 

H/T Fightful
