As seen on this week’s episode of WWE NXT on the WWE Network, the finals of the WWE NXT Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic were held and turned into a no contest once NXT Tag Team Champions The Undisputed Era interfered.

This led to NXT General Manager William Regal officially announcing The Authors of Pain vs. Roderick Strong & WWE UK Champion Pete Dunne vs. The Undisputed Era taking part in a three-way match that will see the winners being crowned Dusty Classic winners and the NXT Tag Team Champions.

With Bobby Fish being out of action with an injury, Adam Cole is going to have to replace him to team up with Kyle O’Reilly. Regal announced late in the show that Cole has a few options. Either he can take part in the Tag Team Title Match and forfeit his spot in the Ladder Match to crown the first-ever NXT North American Champion, O’Reilly can work the match alone, or Cole can work both matches.

The NXT TakeOver: New Orleans event takes place on Saturday, April 7, 2018, in New Orleans, Louisiana at the Smoothie King Center and will air on the WWE Network. Here is the updated card:

NXT Championship Match: Andrade Cien Almas (c) vs. Aleister Black

NXT Women’s Championship Match: Ember Moon (c) vs. Shayna Baszler

NXT Tag Team Championship: Roderick Strong & WWE UK Champion Pete Dunne vs. The Authors of Pain vs. The Undisputed Era

NXT North American Championship Ladder Match: EC3 vs. Killian Dain vs. Lars Sullivan vs. Adam Cole vs. Velveteen Dream vs. Ricochet

Johnny Gargano vs. Tommaso Ciampa
