The announcement came through a social media video released before NXT Vengeance Day, where Starks confirmed he would watch the event on Peacock.
The most sought-after free agent in the world shocked the world when I appeared on NXT last week. Today is Vengeance Day, and I’ll be watching on Peacock. I know you’re wondering ‘What’s next?’ Well, I have the answers for you. This Tuesday, live on NXT, in the middle of that ring, I’m going to sign my official NXT contract. And then you’ll have the absolute truth, from the man himself.
Starks made his initial NXT appearance following his departure from AEW, which occurred after a prolonged impasse with Tony Khan’s company. In his social media video, he maintained the distinctive presence that characterized his tenure in AEW.
#VengeanceDay is LIVE tonight and I’ll be tuned in but I also know there are some questions that need to be answered…#WWENXT pic.twitter.com/B4N4COQZRE
