On Tuesday night’s episode of WWE NXT, Samoa Joe came down to ringside to question General Manager William Regal’s decision on “firing” NXT World Champion Karrion Kross. Joe told Regal that he has a better idea in mind, as he suggested Regal reinstate him to the NXT roster as a competitor so he could face Kross at TakeOver 36 for the title.
Regal agreed, and then also agreed to the suggestion of a match between Joe and Kross at NXT TakeOver 36.
WWE NXT TakeOver 36 takes place on September 22nd.
