The card has been set for this week’s NXT Level Up.
WWE announced that a Global Heritage Invitational bout between Akira Tozawa and Joe Coffey will headline the September 8 episode of NXT Level Up.
You can read the full release by WWE below.
An amazing edition of NXT Level Up will feature Akira Tozawa battling Joe Coffey in an NXT Global Heritage Invitational Group B Match, Ikemen Jiro taking on Tavion Heights, and Fallon Henley tangling with Karmen Petrovic.
Having each competed once in the unique tournament, Coffey and Tozawa are primed to unload their arsenals in a high-stakes clash.
Coffey previously earned two points by defeating Nathan Frazer on NXT, while Tozawa has zero points after falling to Duke Hudson last week on NXT Level Up.
If Heights claims the first singles victory of his career, he will have earned it at the expense of Jiro, one of the most impressive competitors in NXT Level Up history.
Jiro recently came up short against Oro Mensah in a barnburner, but the popular Superstar figures to have the support of the WWE Universe while seeking a bounce-back win.
Speaking of Superstars in search of their first career win, impressive newcomer Petrovic aims for that accolade when she opposes Henley, a former NXT Women’s Tag Team Champion who has won six straight matches on WWE’s newest brand.
Don’t miss an incredible episode of NXT Level Up, streaming Friday at 10/9 C on Peacock in the United States and on WWE Network everywhere else!
