Otis, Akira Tozawa, and Grayson Waller are all scheduled to appear during the three-show run, which kicks off on June 18 in Pikeville, Kentucky, continues on June 19 in Corbin, Kentucky, and wraps up on June 20 in Evansville, Indiana.
The road to NXT Great American Bash also became clearer on Tuesday night.
A singles bout between Tavion Heights and Jackson Drake was held to determine the next challenger for Myles Borne’s NXT North American Championship at the premium live event.
