Karrion Kross vs. WWE NXT Champion Keith Lee is now official for the NXT “Takeover: XXX” event.

Tonight’s NXT episode opened with Kross defeating Danny Burch in singles action. After the match, Lee brought the contract for their Takeover match to the ring and cut an aggressive promo on Kross, who watched from ringside with Scarlett. Lee tossed the contract to the floor and Kross signed it. Scarlett kissed the contract and slid it back into the ring. Lee picked the contract up and opened it but a fireball blew up in his face. Lee was then tended to by medics and referees as Kross and Scarlett smirked from the ramp, and was later taken away in an ambulance.

Lee has promised NXT General Manager William Regal that he will keep his hands off Kross until their match.

The 30th NXT Takeover event is scheduled for Saturday, August 22, during WWE SummerSlam Weekend. It will take place at the NXT Arena on the campus of Full Sail University in Winter Park, Florida.

Below is the current Takeover card, along with a few photos & videos from tonight’s opener:
