WWE announces multiple Hall of Famers to appear on NXT and assist Shawn Michaels
The former World Champion Shawn Michaels will receive assistance from several WWE legends to decide matches on the NXT brand.
Michaels is the Senior Vice President of Talent Development Creative and oversees the creative aspects of WWE's third brand. With The Heartbreak Kid at the helm, NXT underwent significant modifications, including the removal of its multicolored branding.
The Iron Survivor Challenge is another major advancement for the NXT brand. Hence, in preparation for the event, the promotion revealed a few Hall of Famers who will be helping Michaels.
Hall of Famer Mick Foley appeared in a video package on the November 7, 2023, episode of NXT to promote Tiffany Stratton vs. Fallon Henley. He also announced a men's Iron Survivor Challenge singles match between Dijak and Tyler Bate.
It was also revealed that WWE legends John Bradshaw Layfield (JBL), Lita, and Jerry "The King" Lawler will also appear on the upcoming episodes of NXT to determine the competitors in this year's Iron Survivor Challenges at NXT Deadline.
After Foley, Shawn Micheals has former Women's Champion Lita set to appear for the November 14, 2023 episode of NXT. The Extreme Diva will help HBK select the Iron Survivor Challenge Qualifying Matches.

"Thank you to [Shawn Michaels] for making this match official. STONE vs. BRON = 5 days," Stone shared.
