Predictions 

Carmelo Hayes vs. Ilja Dragunov for the NXT Championship

Ilja Dragunov defeated Bron Breakker to earn a slot facing Carmelo Hayes at Great American Bash, where he will make his first-ever attempt at a singles match for the championship. Additionally, it seems as though Breakker’s tenure in NXT will come to an end then. Although Hayes hasn’t held the title for very long, I have a sneaking suspicion that this could also be it for him. It wouldn’t surprise me in the least if he lost to Dragunov tonight and left the brand because he is obviously brilliant and well-liked by WWE executives.

Dominik Mysterio(c) vs Mustafa Ali – NXT North American Championship

In May 2023, Mustafa Ali joined NXT and assisted North American Champion Wes Lee in his match with The Schism. He worked with Lee and Tyler Bate to defeat The Schism on the NXT episode of June 13 after assisting in resolving the conflict between them. He also served as a special guest referee for the Lee vs. Bate North American title fight, in which Lee won the belt. 

His performance, however, was controversial due to a number of rapid and slow counts. He then requested a title shot from Lee. After defeating Tyler Bate in a singles match on the July 4 NXT programme, Ali earned the chance to defend the title. On July 9, WWE launched the contest on social media. Wes Lee was deposed by Dominik Mysterio, who defeated him.
