Generation NXT - NXT recap for October 15, 2024

Tony D'Angelo is in the ring with the rest of The D'Angelo Family (Channing "Stacks" Lorenzo, Luca Crusifino, Adrianna Rizzo) to start tonight's show. D'Angelo says he wanted to celebrate his North American title victory tonight with his family, then gives a toast to the former champion Oba Femi, having been the longest reigning champion with the title. He says Oba is a machine, but he had to win by any means necessary and he had to use his biggest weapon - his pride - against him, and baited Oba into thinking he broke him when he really had Oba where he wanted him and beat him. D'Angelo says part of him thinks this is over, but he knows that it is far from over, and until then, he toasts to Oba. Oba Femi then shows up. Oba Femi admits that Tony D'Angelo got him and congratulates him, then says it happened once and will not happen again, as he will reclaim his title at Halloween Havoc and once again be the ruler of NXT. As he leaves, he tells D'Angelo that his family will not be by his side to help him. He then spins the wheel on his way to the back, and it lands on "Tables, Ladders and Scares."

Backstage, Byron Saxton interviews Oro Mensah. He asks who Lexis King is trying to fool with a "Gentleman's Duel" when he beat him at his game last time, then Lexis King says he wanted to make his father proud, they have a fair wrestling match.

Stephanie Vaquer beats Wren Sinclair. During the match, Cora Jade and Roxanne Perez watch briefly from backstage. After the match, Cora Jade and Roxanne Perez run in and attack Vaquer, but Giulia shows up and fights them off. Vaquer soon joins in, and she and Giulia clean house. Vaquer then challenges Cora and Roxanne to a tag match against her and Giulia at Halloween Havoc.

Backstage, Trick Williams meets with Kelani Jordan. As they talk about being in the ring last week, Kelani asks Trick about his match at Halloween Havoc. Trick says that no matter what happens, the NXT Championship is staying around his waist. Suddenly, The Fatal Influence (Jacy Jayne, Fallon Henley, Jazmyn Nyx) watch from a distance as Kelani says she will face whoever General Manager Ava picks as her next opponent. After Trick and Kelani Leave, The Fatal Influence decide to pay Ava a visit.

Backstage, Karmen Petrovic speaks with Brinley Reece when they are both approached by Ashante "Thee" Adonis, who offers a rose to Brinley and apologizes for his actions. Shawn Spears and Brooks Jensen show up, with Spears considering Adonis to be disrespectful before giving the rose to Jensen to tear it up. Adonis confronts Jensen, and Robert Stone shows up with security to take both men to General Manager Ava's office. Meanwhile, Karmen looks down and picks up the broken rose.

Lexis King beats Oro Mensah in a Gentleman's Duel following a series of pinfall attempts. After the match, Lexis King raises Oro's hand in respect.

Backstage, Cedric Alexander and Je'Von Evans are met by Nathan Frazer and Axiom. Suddenly, Wes Lee shows up and says he hopes Je'Von Evans enjoys his fifteen minutes of fame, as he is not ready for the NXT Championship, and that the title is his. Je'Von Evans accuses Wes of being salty, and this leads to Wes Lee getting angrier and angrier with Je'Von, who says that he hopes never to be like Wes Lee as he becomes a champion.

We hear from Lash Legend and Jakara Jackson. Lash says they will swat Damage CTRL (Iyo Sky and Kairi Sane) out of the sky and eliminate them from the title picture before coming for the WWE Women's Tag Team Championships again.

We see a vignette for Nikkita Lyons, who says that the fans have only gotten a taste of who she is and talks about her love for music, dance and nature before saying she will knock someone's lights out. She says the comeback is greater than the setback, and that she is about to take over the best women's division.

Nikkita Lyons beats Lola Vice in her first match in months after Jaida Parker shows up and hits Lola Vice with the Hipnotic behind the referee's back after Lola kicks her off the ring apron.

Backstage, General Manager Ava congratulates Stephanie Vaquer on her win tonight and gives her and Guilia their tag team match against Roxanne Perez and Cora Jade at Halloween Havoc. The Fatal Influence (Jacy Jayne, Fallon Henley, Jazmyn Nyx) show up wanting an opportunity at the Women's North American Championship, and Ava makes them work to get it with a tag team match against Vaquer and Guilia next week.

Ridge Holland beats Riley Osborne. After the match, Ridge continues to attack Riley, then throws him out of the ring and clears the announce table, but when he is about to put Riley through the table, Andre Chase shows up and gets the upper hand on Ridge until security arrives.

Backstage, Byron Saxton interviews Tatum Paxley, who says that she does not forget Wendy Choo pretending to be her friend just to stab her in the back. Suddenly, Jaida Parker shows up and says she is the one on point in the women's division, and Tatum takes exception to Jaida's interruption of her interview. Jaida says she does not doubt Tatum can handle Wendy Choo, then tells Tatum that she does not play at all.

Brook Jensen beats Ashante "Thee" Adonis following the distraction by Shawn Spears. During the match, Karmen Petrovic shows up and dumps the petals from the rose from earlier out of a white pouch. This gives Adonis a second win, but Jensen still gets the win after Spears distracts Adonis as he is on the top rope.

We see a vignette of the female wrestler from earlier, who is now at the NXT tower. She punches the logo at the top of the tower with flaming fists, then we see her face.

Backstage, Lexis King meets with No Quarter Catch Crew (Charlie Dempsey, Myles Borne, Tavion Heights, Wren Sinclair), thanking Charlie Dempsey and consoling Wren Sinclair on her loss. He compliments Tony D'Angelo on his way out, then Tony D'Angelo talks with his family (Channing "Stacks" Lorenzo, Luca Crusifino, Adrianna Rizzo) regarding Oba Femi. Luca Crusifino wants a match with Oba Femi to show him the true power of the family. D'Angelo tells Crusifino to get it done.

"All Ego" Ethan Page beats . After the match, Ethan Page tells Trick Williams that he is not going anywhere as long as he has air in his lungs and that he will be NXT Champion again. He calls out Trick so he can spin the wheel, which lands on "Devil's Playground Match." As Trick says he is not scared, Ethan Page smacks Trick with what looks like a piece of the ramp lighting to end the show.
