They came to your house, they got they wanted, and they took over! After this Sunday’s epic live event on the WWE Network, we are back on the USA Network for another Wednesday on NXT. NXT Takeover: In Your House had its highs and lows for all the superstars who took place in the event 25 years in the making. But now that the show is done, what will come from next to the superstars of the black and gold brand? Let’s journey together, and take a look to see who is “lost in the sky” in this edition of Coming up NXT for the 6/10/20 episode.

NXT Preview – Lost In The Sky
Champion of The Skies
For those who have not seen NXT Takeover: In Your House, look away now! But for those who have, we have a new NXT Women’s Championand her name is Io Shirai!
In a star-studded clash that included two former champions in the bonafide legend Charlotte Flair and the rising sensation Rhea Ripley, Io stood out on top as Takeover closed the show on Sunday. But today’s a new day. Just three days into her reign, what is next for the ‘Genius of the Sky’?
Will Charlotte Flair look to get retribution for not even being pinned to lose her NXT Women’s Championship on Sunday? Will Ripley bounce back after once again being pinned for the title? Or will any of the many women in the NXT locker room step up to challenge the new champion? We can hope to find out on this week’s NXT.

The Return of The Prince
After successfully putting down Damian Priest, its Finn Balor’s turn to continue to live in the moment as NXT’s most dangerous man. But before he continues his path to run through the brand he once reigned over, The Prince turns his attention to a former rival.
Cameron Grimes is on a bit of a roll. He has several wins under his belt since unsuccessfully challenging for Keith Lee’s North American title. The ‘Technical Savage’ once again puts his money where his mouth. Can he once again beat Finn Balor?
Does Grimes have Balor’s number and can defeat the former NXT Champion again on national television? Or will Balor steamroll through Grimes on his way to his next conquest on the black-and-gold brand? We find out tonight!

Unfriendly Competition
After once again staying on top of the food chain after Takeover: In Your House, Adam Cole is still NXT Champion. 375 days and counting to be exact. And with one chapter closed, another remains open for the undisputed king of Wednesday nights.
Dexter Lumis showed up on Sunday to even the odds for Velveteen Dream and kidnapped Roderick Strong and Bobby Fish. But while the effort was from a good place, Dream still suffered a devastating loss. Lumis looks to continue his crusade against the Undisputed Era as he gets a chance of a lifetime.
Can Adam Cole continue his rise as the brand’s greatest of all-time? Can he defeat a thorn in his side in Lumis? Or will Dexter take another notch off the untouchable belt of the UE by defeating the champ in a non-title match? And will this lead to a title shot in the near future?
Also this week, after a big win last week on NXT, Breezango seems to be on a collision course with the NXT Tag Team Champions Imperium. But how will Danny Burch and Oney Lorcan respond to their loss last week? After the huge 6 woman clash, how will Tegan Nox, Shotzi Blackheart, and Mia Yim capitalize on their win and combat the poison plague of the Gargano’s? Speaking of Johnny Gargano, how will he bounce back from his loss to Keith Lee? And finally, who will be El Hijo De Fantasma’s first opponent for the NXT Cruiserweight Championship? And how long until Jordan Devlin returns to his throne?
That was Coming Up NXT for 6/10/20. Tune in tonight as NXT is only on the USA Network!
