Nominees announced and voting now open for the 2019 NXT Year-End Awards

The Slammys seem to be a thing of the past, but NXT is keeping the old ways alive. For the fifth straight year, fan votes will determine the winners of their Year-End Awards.

As revealed on the black-and-gold brand’s Dec. 4 episode and on WWE.com, voting will again take place on Twitter. You’ll need to send a tweet with the hashtag of the category and your pick to win said category.

Different for 2019? NXT UK is included. There’s also a shorter window to get your ballots in this time, as winners will be announced on the Jan. 1 edition of NXT.

Here are the nominees, along with the requisite hashtags for your ballot:
