WWE.com has released their official previews for both NXT and the Cruiserweight Classic for tonight.

Here are the Quick Hits that WWE has listed for tonight’s episode of NXT:

On Asuka’s return to NXT following her successful title defense at NXT Takeover:

NXT Women’s Champion Asuka further cemented her legacy as one of the most dominant competitors in NXT history when she successfully defended her title against Bayley at TakeOver: Brooklyn II. After toppling Bayley, is there anyone in NXT’s Women’s division worthy of challenging The Empress of Tomorrow? Plus, what’s next for the renowned Asuka?

Here are the Quick Hits that WWE has listed for tonight’s episode of the Cruiserweight Classic:

On tonight’s Quarterfinal Match between Zach Sabre Jr and Noam Dar:

Two of the United Kingdom’s finest grapplers square off in the CWC Quarterfinals this Wednesday, as England’s Zack Sabre Jr. battles longtime friend Noam Dar of Scotland.

Sabre Jr. is one of the premier wrestlers in the world, and from the start wass expected to make a deep run in the tournament, if not win the whole thing. He has demonstrated why they call him “The Technical Wizard” throughout the CWC, whether it was wrenching away at Tyson Dux’s joints in the First Round or displaying his incredible counters to defeat Drew Gulak in the Second Round.

Dar, the youngest competitor in the CWC, has been just as impressive. The Israeli-born Scot is a proficient submission wrestler, employing a vicious kneebar that leaves his opponents no choice but to tap out. Dar has used it to earn himself a spot in the Quarterfinals, defeating Gurv Sihra and HoHo Lun along the way.

Sabre has known Dar since he was a teenage rookie in the ring. Could that give him the upper hand, or will The Scottish Supernova show how far he’s come and oust Sabre from the CWC?
