WWE NXT General Manager William Regal announced during tonight’s broadcast on the USA Network that a Gauntlet Eliminator will take place as part of next week’s show, with the winner advancing to face Finn Balor for the WWE NXT Championship at WWE NXT Takeover on October 4th.
The rules for the gauntlet eliminator are as follows:
– Two men will start in the ring
– Every 4 minutes, another competitor will enter
– The only way to be eliminated is by pinfall or submission
#WWENXT's roster is too stacked to do a regular No. 1 Contender's match for @FinnBalor's #NXTTitle.
