We can now confirm that former NXT Champion Sami Zayn will be making his in-ring return at the upcoming NXT U.K. tour, which kicks off this week.

While Zayn had previously been announced for the tour, it was unclear if he would be wrestling or just appearing at some of the shows. Since then, it has been announced that Zayn will be competing in a triple-threat match against NXT Champion Finn Balor and Baron Corbin at the NXT stop in Sheffield, England this Saturday, December 12th.

Other matches announced for the 12/12 show in Sheffield include NXT Women’s Champion Bayley vs. Emma and Apollo Crews vs. Samoa Joe.
