As is customary, this week's NXT will air live from Full Sail University in Winter Park, FL. Last week, NXT managed to produce one hell of a show and that has kicked up the excitement for tonight's episode.

The Black and Gold brand have been providing the WWE Universe with loads of entertainment on Wednesday Nights and have so far lived up to fan expectations.

Tonight's show promises to be action packed. After his appearance on the show's USA debut, Finn Balor officially returns to NXT tonight. We will also see the NXT North American Championship put on the line in a Triple Threat Match.

So, without any further ado, let's take a look at the three biggest things Triple H could be planning for this week's NXT.

New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE


#3 Finn Balor and Tommaso Ciampa have a fierce face off

After a cameo appearance from Finn Balor in NXT's first-ever episode on the USA Network, the former Universal Champion will make his return to the Black and Gold brand.

If Balor's first appearance was any indicator, it looks like 'The Demon King' has his eyes set on the NXT Championship. The same can be said for the returning Tommaso Ciampa, who made it very clear that he is coming after the NXT Championship.

We can expect a face-off between 'The Black Heart' and 'The Demon King' this week, as both men are after the very same prize. If that happens, expect the crowd to go wild and rightfully so. Just imagine Ciampa vs Balor on a weekly episode of NXT. Such an event was unimaginable only a few short weeks ago.

From the looks of it, Triple H might be planning a Triple Threat Match for the NXT Championship between Balor, Ciampa, and Cole at War Games on November 23rd.

This could be the development of one of the biggest storylines in NXT history.

#2 Dominik Dijakovic becomes the new NXT North American Champion

The biggest match on this week's episode of NXT will be the NXT North American Championship match between Keith Lee, Dominik Dijakovic, and Roderick Strong.

This match most definitely has the potential to steal the show, and we might even see a new NXT North American Champion at the bout's conclusion.

With NXT War Games a mere month away, Triple H could be looking to build a feud from scratch between the aforementioned Superstars, as Velveteen Dream suffered an unfortunate and untimely injury (Dream was originally scheduled to face Strong for the NXT North American Championship this week).

Dijakovic has proven himself at the highest level and with his ability to deliver classics at will, smart money is on him to walk out of this week's episode as the North American Champion.

There is another noteworthy reason why this could happen. Keith Lee suffered a back injury last week while facing Dijakovic. If the injury proves to be serious, Lee might be eased out of the NXT North American Championship picture. The best way to do that is to put the title on Dijakovic, making it a two-way feud between he and Strong.

#1 Pete Dunne gets attacked by Killian Dain, while he deals with Damien Priest

Last week's main event saw Damien Priest hit a low blow on Pete Dunne. The cheap shot allowed Priest to pick up a victory over 'The Bruiserweight.' Obviously, none of this sat well with Dunne.

Dunne might just be looking to even the score on 'The Archer of Infamy' this week, but might have other obstacles in his way, as Killian Dain has some unfinished business with 'The Bruiserweight.' Last week, while making his way to the ring to face Priest, Dunne provoked 'The Beast From Belfast' by attacking him. Dain was then stopped by the security, as he tried to retaliate against Dunne.

Expect 'The Beast From Belfast' to attack Dunne tonight on NXT, while 'The Bruiserweight' tries to deal with 'The Archer of Infamy.' Will the former NXT UK Champion be able to handle two Superstars at the same time? Only time will tell!
