WWE NXT’s Deadline Go-Home episode, which includes the final build for Saturday’s major event, will air live tonight on the USA Network.
The Men’s Iron Survivor Challenge match at Deadline, which will feature Von Wagner vs. Axiom vs. Andre Chase, will begin tonight’s NXT with the Wild Card match. In order to build up to the five-man match at Deadline, the winner will then join Grayson Waller, Joe Gacy, JD McDonagh, and Carmelo Hayes for a Grayson Waller Effect segment later in the show.
Additionally, tonight will feature the Wild Card match between Wendy Choo, Fallon Henley, and Indi Hartwell, which will decide who will be the final participant in the Women’s Iron Survivor Challenge.

Tony D’Angelo’s first TV match since suffering a knee injury in mid-September will also be on tonight’s NXT episode, but it is currently unknown with whom he will be squaring off.
