Je’Von Evans Challenges Oba Femi For NXT Championship

Oba Femi now has the seventh-longest NXT Championship reign, and he is looking to extend that. At Heatwave, Je’Von Evans will be challenging Femi for that title. Evans defeated TNA World Champion Trick Williams to secure that opportunity.

Evans has never gotten to challenge Femi for the title in a singles match, and he finally gets the chance. During Femi’s reign as the NXT North American Champion, Evans unsuccessfully challenged for that title. With this being for the top gold in NXT, Evans is determined, but could he be the one to topple Femi?

Jacy Jayne Defends TNA Knockouts Gold

Against all odds, Jacy Jayne remains the TNA Knockouts Champion and the NXT Women’s Champion. At Heatwave, Jayne will have to defend the gold in a triple threat match. Her opponents will be Masha Slamovich and Ash by Elegance.

This match could be the one to prove as Jayne’s toughest challenge yet. For the rest of Fatal Influence, the Elegance brand could counter that. But Slamovich hopes to be the one to restore balance and bring TNA gold back to TNA.

DarkState Go For Gold Against Hank & Tank

Two members of DarkState will challenge Hank and Tank for the NXT Tag Team Championship at Heatwave. This will be the first time that DarkState looks to attain any gold for their stable. With how vicious and intense they are, this could be their crowning moment.

Hank & Tank are formidable NXT Tag Team Champions, and have proven to get stronger with time. This is definitely their most unpredictable challenge yet, and it could take them having an ace or two up their sleeve to pick up the victory.
