WWE NXT Results: Tatum Paxley vs. Wendy Choo - Casket Match

Paxley was in control early on, and the two were by the casket on the apron before Wendy was sent outside and took a big dive. Paxley put a trashcan on Wendy's head before beating her with a broom handle.

Wendy took a big reverse-angle slam but sidestepped a move in the corner. Paxley ran into a trashcan in the corner before Choo dropped her headfirst into the trashcan and hit a double dropkick in the corner.

After a break on NXT, Paxley was suplexed into a dollhouse in the corner before Choo tossed her into the casket, but her pillow kept the casket from closing all the way.

Paxley got out of the casket and was hit with the pillow before Choo dumped a bunch of Lego pieces from inside the pillow on the mat.

Paxley took a big slam onto the Lego pieces before she was sent back into the casket, but Choo failed to close it again. Wendy hit a big dive before they were in the casket, but both managed to escape.

Paxley sprayed Choo with a fire extinguisher and put her through the bed before sending her inside the casket and slamming it for the win.

Result: Tatum Paxley def. Wendy Choo

Grade: B+


Trick Williams was out next and called Bubba Ray Dudley to thank him for the assist after Ridge Holland attacked the NXT Champion at Halloween Havoc. Williams thanked Dudley, and the Hall of Famer said he was just doing the right thing and that Holland disrespected him.

Bubba Ray added that no one came out to assist Trick after the match on Sunday because Williams was the champ, making him a target for everyone. Trick wanted revenge and asked Bubba Ray to join him in a tag match against Ethan Page and Ridge Holland.

Dudley hyped up the crowd and even brought out his glasses but said he couldn't take it away from the NXT Superstars before walking out.


Rob Van Dam was watching backstage with Ava and said that he would be there next week on NXT in Philadelphia.

Kelani Jordan came in to ask Ava for a title rematch with Fallon Henley before Nikkita Lyons got in her face. Jordan asked Ava to book a match with Lyons instead and said she would take care of Henley later.


Shawn Spears and Brooks Jensen tried to talk to Tony D'Angelo, but he had family business to take care of instead.


WWE NXT Results: Charley Dempsey (c) vs. Lexis King - Heritage Cup match

William Regal was there at ringside to support the challenger, Lexis King. Round 1 saw King take some big strikes before coming back with a big dropkick and a high crossbody for a near fall. Dempsey got a big suplex and bridging pin for the first pinfall in the match.

Dempsey came out of the gate in Round 2 with a big elbow and locked in a submission hold. King broke out and got some tosses but hit his knee on the way down when he was tossed outside. King was unable to stand back up as we headed for a break.

On NXT, King was back inside the ring and managed to reverse some moves before getting a superkick. Round 3 started with Dempsey back in control and got a series of suplexes before getting a knee bar in on the injured knee.

King got out of the hold before coming back with a kick. Regal handed King some brass knuckles, but Lexis rejected them, saying he was not his father. Dempsey took him down from the distraction and won.

Result: Charley Dempsey def. Lexis King to retain the Heritage Cup on NXT

Grade: B


WWE NXT Results: Zaria vs. Brinley Reece

Zaria made her in-ring debut against Brinley Reece and got an early takedown before twisting Reece's arm and getting a big slam.

The newcomer followed up with a backbreaker, and Reece returned with some strikes but took a spear and an F5 for the three-count.

Result: Zaria def. Brinley Reece

Grade: C


Fatal Influence was out after the match, and so were Roxanne Perez and Cora Jade. All five of them cornered Zaria in the ring before she was joined by Kelani Jordan, Giulia, Stephani Vaquer, and finally, Jordynne Grace.

We got a big five-on-five brawl, and the heels were ejected from the ring before NXT moved on.


WWE NXT Results: Kelani Jordan vs. Nikkita Lyons

Jordan got a big splash and a crossbody early on for a near fall before Lyons tossed her across the ring. Jordan got some kicks in but was taken down before Adriana Rizzo showed up at ringside.

The distraction allowed Jordan to hit the split-legged moonsault on Lyons for the win.

Result: Kelani Jordan def. Nikkita Lyons

Rizzo attacked Lyons after the match and sent her outside for a big dive before officials came in and followed the two backstage as the brawl continued.

Grade: C


Ethan Page came out next and complained about his loss at Halloween Havoc before saying that Ridge Holland couldn't challenge for the NXT Title because he wasn't done with Trick. Ridge came out and said that everyone was sick of Page and that he had plenty of chances, but now it was Holland's turn to challenge for the title.

Ridge said that Trick wanted Bubba Ray to do the dirty work of taking him down, but Dudley refused the match for his own good. Bubba Ray came out and said that Holland might be impressive in the ring, but Dudley wasn't going to take the disrespect from him.

Bubba said that neither Ridge nor Ethan deserved a title shot. Ridge said that no one cared what Bubba thought since he was just a radio host now and called him overrated. Ridge said that he would put Bubba in the hospital before Dudley attacked him and Page attacked Bubba.

Trick Williams came out to assist Bubba, and the two tossed Page and Holland out of the ring. Bubba Ray got on the mic and said he was ready to join Trick for the tag match.


Rhea Ripley showed up to hype up Zaria, Jordan, Grace, Giulia, and Vaquer as they discussed facing Roxanne, Cora, and Fatal Influence.


We saw officials running to the parking lot and calling for medical as Raquel and Women's World Champ Liv Morgan walked off swinging baseball bats. Rhea Ripley was seen lying next to her car and was bleeding from the head and mouth after a possible beatdown from the Judgment Day members.

WWE NXT Results: Axiom & Nathan Frazer (c) vs. Je'Von Evans & Cedric Alexander - NXT Tag Team Title match

Evans got some big, high-flying moves early on and took control of the match before Axiom forced a tag, but Nathan refused to leave the ring. Axiom and Frazer argued about it mid-match, and the challengers used the distraction to send them outside before Cedric hit a big dive.

After a break on NXT, Evans got a flying clothesline before sending Axiom into Frazer and hitting a big superkick. Evans got another near fall off a springboard cutter on Axiom before tagging Cedric in.

Axiom returned with a Canadian Destroyer off a counter before getting the Spanish Fly. Frazer came in with the Phoenix Splash before Wes Lee came out with a steel chair. Evans attacked Wes, and they headed backstage, leaving Cedric alone. Cedric took the Brainbuster/Golder Ratio kick combo before the champs won.

Result: Axiom & Nathan Frazer def. Je'Von Evans & Cedric Alexander to retain the NXT Tag Team Titles

Grade: B+


Wes Lee and Je'Von Evans were still fighting backstage, and Ava came in with officials to stop them before Rob Van Dam came in and said that he knew what he wanted to do next week.


RVD left, and the brawl restarted before NXT went off the air.
