A change has been confirmed for an upcoming WWE championship match coming up this weekend on Sunday, August 30.
August 30 will play host to the NXT Heatwave premium live event on the CW Network, emanating from Bert Ogden Arena in Edinburg, Texas – the same location as AAA Ola De Calor on the same day.
Last week, WWE announced that Heatwave would feature a title unification match between NXT Women’s North American Champion Zaria and Women’s Speed Champion Wren Sinclair.
However, after that match was confirmed, a match between Zaria and Kali Armstrong was made for tonight’s NXT.
The match between Zaria and Armstrong carried the stipulation that if Armstrong won, she’d be added to the Heatwave match to make it a three-way.
Armstrong did pick up the win against Zaria on tonight’s August 25 episode of WWE NXT, so that change to Heatwave is confirmed.
It will now be Zaria vs Wren Sinclair vs Kali Armstrong with Zaria and Sinclair’s titles set to be unified by the winner.
Another Addition To NXT Heatwave
There was another new addition to the card for WWE NXT Heatwave 2026 in the women’s division that was confirmed on tonight’s NXT episode.
For the past few weeks and months, Nattie has been popping up in NXT and mainly working in a feud with Jaida Parker.
That feud will come to a head at Heatwave as the two will face off in a submission match, with the natural idea that Nattie has the advantage due to her finisher being the Sharpshooter.
Elsewhere at Heatwave, the NXT Championship will be on the line with Tony D’Angelo defending in a four-way against Grayson Waller, Cruz Montana and the recently signed Zilla Fatu.
NXT Women’s Champion Kendal Grey will also defend her championship at Heatwave against Kelani Jordan.
Myles Borne will pull double duty as he defends both the North American Championship and NXT Tag Team Title in separate matches.
Borne defends the NA Title against Vanity Project’s Jackson Drake, as well as teaming with Tavion Heights to defend the Tag Title against Brad Baylor and Ricky Smokes also of the Vanity Project.
