Lee is back in the hunt for some gold after losing the "NXT" North American Championship to "Dirty" Dominik Mysterio last month, while Dijak will be seeking revenge after failing to capture the "NXT" North American Championship from Lee in their first-ever singles clash at Vengeance Day earlier this year. 

Elsewhere, Tony D'Angelo and Channing "Stacks" Lorenzo will be defending the "NXT" Tag Team Championship against Rip Fowler and Jagger Reid. It will be D'Angelo and Lorenzo's first defense of the belts since capturing the gold from Gallus' Mark Coffey and Wolfgang at The Great American Bash premium live event last month. 

Two more singles matches are also penciled in for tonight's show, with Dana Brooke going up against Blair Davenport and Trick Williams battling Drew Gulak.
