Lexis King was informed today by Penn and Teller that he would defend his Heritage Cup Championship against a mystery opponent on tonight's show. King's opponent proved to be a true test for him, as he's very familiar with that specific championship. Advertisement Noam Dar returned to WWE NXT tonight after an 11-month absence. Dar hasn't been seen since he was taken out by Ethan Page last year. According to WWE, Dar was out with an injury where a tendon was ripped off the bone in one of his legs. Surprisingly, Noam Dar went on to defeat Lexis King to capture the NXT Heritage Cup for an unprecedented fourth time. This means the match between Ricky Saints and Lexis King next week for the North American Championship is no longer title for title.
