As announced by Cena, the show will also give a platform to NXT talents to showcase their skills on the big stage against main-roster talents. Additionally, Michael Cole, during the December 5 episode of SmackDown, confirmed that a Countdown Show would stream on YouTube for John Cena’s final SNME, beginning about two hours before the main show.

Also, during the December 5 show, Nick Aldis brought Cody Rhodes into his office, with Ricky Saints and Oba Femi already present. Cody revealed that whichever one of them won at NXT Deadline would face him on Saturday Night’s Main Event.
