WWE NXT will feature two championship matchups and more with a heavily stacked lineup on November 21.
Lyra Valkyria will defend the NXT Women's Championship against Xia Li, as revealed on the November 14 episode of NXT. On that episode, Li and Valkyria interacted in a tea ceremony, which Li was customary in her culture to show respect before a battle.
It will be a big week for Li as she will also face Becky Lynch on the November 20 episode of Monday Night Raw. For weeks, Li wanted to face Becky Lynch for the NXT Women's Championship. Next week, she gets the opportunity to both face Becky and win the championship with a match against Lyra.
