NXT Roadblock 2022

On Tuesday, March 8th, NXT Roadblock 2022 is set to take place. As evident with NXT in recent weeks, a blend of emerging talents and established ones appear to be more at the forefront of the program. As of this writing, only three matches have been announced, but with that, each appears to have stipulations that will likely shape the brand moving forward. Despite having only a few matches announced, they could be granted more time, or more matches could develop on the show in real-time.

We are set to see a last man standing match on this week’s show, a triple threat NXT Championship match, and an NXT Tag Team Championship match. With these matches and the recent announcement of the NXT Stand and Deliver event set to take place during WrestleMania weekend, fans are sure to be interested in what develops from this week’s program. Here is our NXT Roadblock 2022 preview.

Last Man Standing Match
LA Knight vs. Grayson Waller

Yeah! It was bound to happen between these two. The constant disrespect at the hands of Waller suggests that tonight could be the match that finally ends the battle between Knight and him. To the credit of Knight, he has been victorious over Waller in the past. He’s battled potential ‘charges’ by Waller and been attacked by Waller’s bodyguard.

Despite all that, it may be the night where it doesn’t matter what Knight tries to do to finally end the feud with Waller that it will be the younger Waller that will be the one that stands tall. With the chances of him having to answer a 10-count an obstacle, Waller looks to put another NXT veteran down on his way to the top.

After winning the Dusty Classic, the Creed Brothers championship opportunity wasn’t a matter if it would happen but rather when. So while we’ve seen Gunther play a part and intimidate Malcolm Bivens, it is a matter of the champions and challengers that will come to blows to find out who will stand tall. Bivens is the charismatic mouthpiece that will make the Creed’s something to anticipate from a presentation standpoint.

However, when their matches take place, the brothers will showcase their technical skills and present themselves in a way that all eyes should be on them. In addition, they face the enormous task of usurping the current NXT Tag Team Champions.

NXT Championship
Tommaso Ciampa vs Bron Breakker vs Dolph Ziggler

This really is a special matchup. It feels like a blend of styles and eras in the WWE in some regards. But, regardless of what may feel about Ziggler today, there is no denying his ability to put on a competitive match, especially when a title is on the line. For Ciampa, fans have seen how he’s clearly represented NXT’s past and been a two-time NXT Champion on the brand.

Both Ziggler and Ciampa have the chance to help and elevate Breakker during this match. The young champion really has a chance to do something special here. From his family’s history in the business to be in the ring with two men that could help him be a star, it really has all the makings of an amazing match between them.
