5 things that must happen on WWE RAW, NXT and SmackDown this week

#3. Ridge Holland must defeat Timothy Thatcher after interference on WWE NXT

A freak injury kept Ridge Holland away from WWE NXT for far too long. Fans did not forget The Bothercauser, who returned three weeks ago to make an immediate impact once again.

Holland attacked Timothy Thatcher and helped Pete Dunne and Oney Lorcan win a tag team match. Since then, Holland manhandled Ikemen Jiro in a wrestling match and sent a warning to the NXT Universe.

Thatcher challenged Holland to a match, and The Bothercauser gladly accepted the challenge. The two ruthless men will meet in the ring on this week’s NXT.

While Toothless Timothy needs to pick up a few big victories to get back on track in NXT, WWE must allow Holland to come out on top this time. Holland is a superstar who could reach the top pretty quickly with his size and strength.

A victory on NXT this week could lead to a match between Holland and Tommaso Ciampa later on. That match could pave the path to Holland’s rise on the NXT roster where he could become a future top champion.
