Jordan Devlin has a new challenger.
On Wednesday's The Bump, Trent Seven officially made weight allowing him to challenge Devlin for the NXT Cruiserweight Championship on the March 18 episode of NXT UK.
An exclusive weigh-in was held on The Bump and with Seven coming in at 204 and a quarter pounds, coming in under the 205-pound weight limit.
Devlin has made four defenses of his NXT Cruiserweight Championship while competing for NXT UK. He has been overseas due to the COVID-19 pandemic but is set to return to NXT in the US on Wednesday, March 17 where he will confront Santos Escobar. Escobar also holds an NXT Cruiserweight Championship, which came to fruition due to Devlin being overseas with no immediate return date for him or NXT UK.
