WWE Announces The NXT New Year’s Evil Special Event For January 4th

During last night's WWE NXT WarGames special, a video promo aired, where WWE NXT's next special event was announced. It was advertised on the video that on Tuesday, January 4th, a special New Year’s Evil episode of NXT will take place from the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, Florida. Stars such as NXT North American Champion Carmelo Hayes, Boa, Pete Dunne, Elektra Lopez, Dakota Kai, Santos Escobar and NXT Women’s Champion Mandy Rose and NXT Women’s Tag Team Champions Gigi Dolin and Jacy Jayne of Toxic Attraction were featured in the promo video.

NXT New Year's Evil, which the tagline of next year's event is “Evil has a new face” and features the NXT Women's Champion, first took place this past January 6, with no live fans in the crowd due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The event was headlined by then-NXT Champion Finn Balor successfully defending the NXT Championship against Kyle O’Reilly.

There is no word yet on who will compete at the 2022 NXT New Year’s Evil special, but updates will be provided once it has been made available.
