Bengaluru, August 6: As seen on last night's episode of NXT, the General Manager William Regal has confirmed a big alteration in the list of competitors for the Ladder Match set to happen over the vacant NXT North American Title at the NXT Takeover: XXX event.
Regal announced that one of the entrants of this match, Dexter Lumis has now been withdrawn from the five-man Ladder Match due to an ankle injury. In two weeks, superstars who would not get pinned or submitted in the previous and upcoming Triple Threat qualifiers will meet in two singles matches. Winners of these dual matches will capture the final two spots in the Ladder Match.
Bronson Reed and Damian Priest have already been inserted into the Ladder Match. Next week, NXT will feature another Triple Threat qualifier with the lineup being Kushida vs. Cameron Grimes vs. a mystery participant.
