From WWE:

Timothy Thatcher has demonstrated painful teachings in recent weeks, but Oney Lorcan isn’t deterred.

They’ll square off Wednesday night at The Great American Bash in what promises to be a hard-hitting bout.

After defeating Matt Riddle in the NXT Fight Pit, Thatcher has focused on education in recent weeks, stretching pupils in his “Thatch-as-Thatch-can” wrestling school.

Lorcan took notice, calling Thatcher out for a match.

Now NXT General Manager William Regal is giving Lorcan exactly what he wants.

Will Thatcher take Lorcan to school, or will Oney rule?

In addition, there will be a Fatal 4-Way Elimination Match to determine the number one contender for the NXT Women's Championship.

The July 1 episode of NXT will also feature a match between NXT Women's Champion Io Shirai and WWE Women's Tag Team Champion Sasha Banks.
