Earlier today, Triple H posted on Twitter that there would be a “huge surprise” tonight for the NXT television tapings tonight at the University of Central Florida.

The tweet has been deleted since this morning, but The Game posted the following on Twitter earlier today:

BAYLEY vs. CARMELLA SAMI vs. JOE BALOR vs. NEVILLE PLUS a huge surprise… TONIGHT @CFEArena 7:30pm https://t.co/pcQU3cSnfR #WeAreNXT

— Triple H (@TripleH) January 22, 2016

According to several sources, including Wrestlezone.com, former TNA World Champion Austin Aries is backstage for those tapings tonight. “The Greatest Man That Ever Lived” has been backstage for NXT TV tapings before, but Triple H’s “huge surprise” has led to the speculation that Aries will appear on NXT TV.

What’s most interesting about this news is Austin Aries was already in Pittsburgh earlier this week to undergo medical testing that could have been WWE medically clearing him for tonight. Yesterday, it was revealed that Austin Aries could be signing with WWE.

This is all very exciting for wrestling fans and especially for NXT. It won’t be confirmed until later tonight during the tapings to see if Aries actually arrives in NXT, but all the speculation leads to this being a very fun week with this news, the “Royal Rumble”, and the long awaited debut of AJ Styles in WWE.
