The mysterious QR code clues were finally solved on Tuesday's WWE NXT 2.0.
For three weeks a QR code has been popping up on the screen, prompting fans to scan them to follow the clues. The first clue, directed fans to a URL containing the numbers 8:10:11. Seeing as the alpha-numeric code of the message represents HJK, fans speculated that HJK could be related to a returning or debuting wrestler. There was also speculation it might refer to a date.
During last night's broadcast, a QR code aired just minutes before the 20-Woman Battle Royal to determine the No. 1 contender to Mandy Rose’s WWE NXT Women’s Championship. When fans scanned the code they were directed to the following video message:
The QR code this week takes you to a video showing someone walking where it’s titled: NXT - Up Next.
