Before Friday night’s episode of SmackDown, multiple WWE NXT Superstars were featured in dark matches.
The first match saw Austin Theory lose to Odyssey Jones in what was described as a “semi-squash match.” Following this, another member of The Way, Indi Hartwell, would lose to former NXT Superstar and current member of the Monday Night RAW roster, Aliyah.
As many of you know, “The Way” faction is one of the most over acts in WWE NXT these days, yet two of their members were jobbed out in dark matches on Friday night.
You can check out some photos from the two matches below:
