The WWE has announced the main event of the next NXT TakeOver special, and it’s a huge one for Diva fans.
In a rematch from NXT TakeOver: Brooklyn, Bayley will defend her NXT Women’s Championship against Sasha Banks in a 30 Minute Iron Man match.
The news was announced at tonight’s NXT television tapings and tweeted by Triple H:

This will mark the first time the Divas have main evented a TakeOver special, though Bayley and Sasha’s Brooklyn match was advertised as a co-main event. Divas have already main evented regular episodes of NXT and, perhaps most notably, wrestled in the main event of NXT’s much-hyped Philadelphia live event. It will also serve as the first ever Divas Iron Man match.
The next NXT TakeOver special takes place October 7th and will air live on the WWE Network.
