Main roster star to speak at WWE NXT: New Year's Evil? The announcement you may have missed
WWE has announced a stacked line-up for NXT: New Year's Evil. It was revealed tonight that Ridge Holland will also appear on the show. Holland will speak on almost costing Ilja Dragunov his career during their title match last week on NXT.
Holland was associated with The Brawling Brutes before he returned to NXT. The SmackDown Superstar quietly ended his association with Butch, formerly known as Pete Dunne, amid Sheamus’ absence from active in-ring competition.
Speaking of Butch, the former NXT UK Champion is expected to bring his British Strong Style partner Tyler Bate to the main roster at SmackDown: New Year’s Revolution next Friday to take on Pretty Deadly in a tag team action.
