Tonight's WWE NXT Cruiserweight Championship Match Has Been Cancelled

WWE NXT originally had a Cruiserweight Championship match scheduled tonight that will apparently no longer take place.

The General Manager of NXT, William Regal, announced on Twitter that this match will no longer go down as scheduled as the NXT Cruiserweight Champion Kushida is not medically cleared to wrestle.

A Diamond Mine open challenge will kick off the show in it's place.

Unfortunately after a medical examination, officials learned @KUSHIDA_0904 is not cleared to compete tonight. When I informed @Malcolmvelli and @roderickstrong, they expressed Roderick’s desire to compete.

Therefore, #WWENXT will begin with a #DiamondMine open challenge.
