Generation NXT - NXT recap for June 2, 2026

Tatum Paxley guests on commentary for the next match.

Zaria beats Lizzy Rain. After the match, Zaria is about to hit Lizzy Rain with another F-5 when Tatum Paxley stops Zaria, saying that if she wants a Women's North American Championship match so badly, she can have it next week.



Backstage, Myles Borne tells Dorian Van Dux that he and Sean Legacy had a great match last week, and Tavion Heights says they should be a tag team. Van Dux and Legacy agree. Meanwhile, Izzi Dame speaks with Shawn Spears and Niko Vance, telling them to forget about last week, saying she will be putting the NXT Women's Championship on the back to take care of some business. Niko Vance agrees.

Before the next match, Saquon Shugars (Dion Lennox, Cutler James, Osiris Griffin) attacks DarkState with a baseball bat from within the crowd and hits Cutler James.



NXT The Great American Bash is live on The CW on Sunday, June 28th in North America!

It is announced that DarkState (Dion Lennox, Cutler James, Osiris Griffin) vs. Myles Borne and Tavion Heights following Saquon Shugars' attack, and that another tag team match is happening right now.

OTM (Bronco Nima and Lucien Price) beats The Culling (Shawn Spears and Niko Vance) after a busted-open Shawn Spears nearly inadvertently runs into Niko Vance near the apron and avoids a Superkick from Lucien Price, allowing OTM to hit a double-team maneuver for the win.



Backstage, Tate Wilder meets with EK Prosper. Prosper tells Wilder to fight smart, but Wilder says he has to stand out and take his chances. As EK tells Wilder he needs to slow down, Kam Hendrix shows up and brags about his recent success, but Wilder says that he will soon get his big win against Jackson Drake. Wilder leaves, then Hendrix tells EK Prosper that he can tell his grandkids that he was in the building where Hendrix won his first title. Hendrix leaves, and EK Prosper hopes that Tony D'Angelo whups him.

Jackson Drake beats Tate Wilder after Wilder is distracted by Brad Baylor and "The Smoke Show" Ricky Smokes, fending them both off only to be caught and powerbombed into the ring apron behind the referee's back by Myka Lockwood.

Lola Vice heads to the ring. Lola talks about how she knocked out Izzi Dame and proved that she is the complete package at Noche de los Grandes, and says that she is undeniable as she continues to prove everyone wrong. She says she won the NXT Women's Championship not out of luck, but because of hard work and the desire to make it in NXT. She also says she does not make excuses or take any excuses from anyone here. Lola then wants to know who is next, because somebody always has an eye on her title, and she loves it. As she says that whoever steps up will get knocked down, Kelani Jordan shows up wanting to know if Lola will give her a shot. She mentions that Lola went to AAA and got some momentum, then says that their stories are not much different, with the only difference saying that she was questioned while Lola was praised. Kelani says she has watched women come and go and watched opportunities to go to others, and that she is taking her opportunities now. Suddenly, Kendal Grey and Wren Sinclair show up. Kendal tells Kelani that she is not the only woman who wants the NXT Women's Championship, and that she has proven why she is worthy of the title in the Women's Iron Survivor Challenge before mentioning unfinished business with Lola. She also has a receipt for Kelani after what she did to Sinclair, and Kelani says she just needs one shot to become champion while Kendal has failed multiple times. Lola has Kendal and Kelani face each other in a #1 contender's match next week, with the winner facing her for the title at The Great American Bash. Lola then goes for a spinning back fist on Kelani, but Kelani ducks and she hits Kendal instead.



We see a vignette for the Mr. NXT Pageant between Shiloh Hill and Tristan Angels.

D'Angelo says he will turn away all challengers, but Rook tells D'Angelo he will not beat him. General Manager Robert Stone shows up and tells Mason Rook that if he beats Naraku - who is watching in the background - next week, then he will face D'Angelo for the NXT Championship. D'Angelo says he looks forward to this and leaves, and Robert Stone tells Mason Rook not to get involved in tonight's NXT Championship match.

Lexis King retains the WWE Speed Championship against Romeo Moreno.

Backstage, Jaida Parker has another meeting with Nattie. Nattie says that Jaida's performance last week was "less than mediocre" and says she does not buy Jaida's act and that she is not afraid of her. She says she is not afraid of her and has been through a lot, and that Jaida is scared because she is soft.

Backstage, Keanu Carver shows up as EK Prosper tells Tate Wilder "I told you so," saying that Wilder has a death wish. Wilder says they can have a rematch, and Prosper says he will be the one to humble Carver, who tells Prosper to keep talking crazy and see what happens. Meanwhile, Kendal Grey and Wren Sinclair converse. Kendal wants Sinclair in her corner, but Sinclair tells her to focus on what matters - beating Kelani Jordan - while she focuses on recovering.

DarkState (Dion Lennox and Osiris Griffin) beat Myles Borne and Tavion Heights. After the match, Tavion Heights refuses Myles Borne's help. Meanwhile, Saquon Shugars stares down DarkState from the balcony with a baseball bat in his hand.

NXT Revenge, Week Two - NXT recap for April 21, 2026

Myles Borne retains the NXT North American Championship against Dion Lennox when the rest of DarkState's (Cutler James, Saquon Shugars, Osiris Griffin) interference attempt backfires.



Backstage, Blake Monroe is focused on her casket match. "The Smoke Show" Ricky Smokes tells Blake that she has this match handled, and Jackson Drake tells Blake Monroe to send The Vanity Project (Brad Baylor, Ricky Smokes, Jackson Drake) a text if she needs anything.

Backstage, Saquon Shugars tries to get another match out of General Manager Robert Stone, while Shiloh Hill and Tatum Paxley talk about Tatum's casket match. Shiloh says that he has set up The Vanity Project on a date of sorts, then mentions that he has a match with Ricky Saints next week.

Keanu Carver beats Joe Hendry by referee stoppage following multiple forearms to a downed Hendry. (With Hendry heading to Raw next week to perform his first concert on the main roster, this is Hendry's last match in NXT.)



For this week's NXT Spotlight, we see a vignette for Lizzie Raine - formerly Rayne Leverkusen - who debuts next week. Lizzie says that everyone has thought she was too loud, but she will prove that rock will never die.

Lexis King beats EK Prosper to win the WWE Speed Championship Tournament and become the WWE Speed Champion after Arianna Grace slaps Prosper, who has to fend off Channing "Stacks" Lorenzo and Uriah Connors on the outside only for Lexis to hit the Coronation back in the ring to win the match and the vacant title.



Brad Baylor and Ricky Smokes catch Jackson Drake's date on video for Instagram. Jackson Drake says that the date never showed, and as the three of them talk, Jackson says he will love again. All of a sudden, a rather tall and formidable-looking woman (Myka Lockwood, formerly Bayley Humphrey in LFG until last month) stands up in the background and asks Drake if he has been stood up.

Backstage, Saquon Shugars meets with the rest of DarkState (Dion Lennox, Cutler James, Osiris Griffin) and says that he got them a rematch. Lennox says he will beat Myles Borne this time, but Saquon told him that General Manager Robert Stone has put it on him to get the North American Championship for DarkState.

Tatum Paxley retains the NXT Women's North America Championship against Blake Monroe in a casket match following a Cemetery Drive on a stack of diamonds.



Jackson Drake gets to know the woman he just met, whose name is Myka. Myka mentions her career as a mortician's assistant (a reference to her real life job prior to becoming a wrestler), and tells Drake that his supposed date is an AI bot. The Vanity Project (Brad Baylor, "The Smoke Show" Ricky Smokes, Jackson Drake) soon realize that Shiloh Hill set Jackson Drake up, then Myka takes Drake out for tequila shots and lets Baylor and Smokes join them. On the way out, Myka shoves a guy who gets in her way powerfully enough to push him into a wall.

Lola Vice heads to the ring. Lola Vice says she made a statement against Jacy Jayne in her first title defense and showed what kind of champion she is going to be. She says that Jayne not only elevated the women's division, but reinvented herself. Lola then says that the hardest part of being a champion is keeping the title, and that she sees all eyes on her in the locker room. She says that everyone is making it clear that they want her title, and that her competitions are all threats. She then says she likes it, because holding the title means you are a future WrestleMania main event. Lola says she is ready to be "the realest champion," as everyone is wanting to make their mark. Lola then warns anybody who walks into Vice City to challenge her that they will be challenging a fighter and risking getting knocked out and danced on. All of a sudden, Izzi Dame shows up with The Culling (Shawn Spears and Niko Vance). Izzi says Lola is talking like she cleaned out the women's division in one defense, then asks Lola if she is beginning to feel it yet and says that she is watching and waiting for the moment Lola makes a mistake to strike. Izzi says that she will rip Lola apart, and when she becomes the next champion, Lola will thank her instead of cursing her. Lola says Izzi's waiting feels like hesitation, and that she will beat her ass when she is ready. Izzi reminds Lola that The Culling is one step ahead, and when Niko Vance grabs at Lola Vice's AAA Mixed Tag Team Championship, Izzi boots Lola in the face and knocks her out.



Backstage, Sarah Schreiber interviews Birthright (Lexis King, Uriah Connors, Channing "Stacks" Lorenzo, Arianna Grace, Charlie Dempsey). Lexis King says that the WWE Speed Champion is someone who was born to be a champion and that Birthright is not only full of stars, but that they will not stop until they are all champions. EK Prosper shows up and demands a rematch, stating that Lexis King won only because of the rest of Birthright. Dorian Van Dux shows up and also wants a fight, and as Uriah says that they can make that happen, Arianna says Birthright has a championship coronation to attend.

Kendal Grey talks about growing up competing with her older brother, being part of the wrestling team in school, and how she was a magnet for bad luck as a kid as part of this week's NXT Focus.

Backstage, General Manager Robert Stone is talking with Lola Vice, who says that she has the perfect person to help deal with The Culling. Suddenly, a crashing noise is heard, and Ricky Saints is attacking Shiloh Hill in Stone's office.

Backstage, General Manager Robert Stone runs into Tony D'Angelo when D'Angelo receives a box with a Chinese character on it as Stone mentions a potential challenge for the NXT Championship. Keanu Carver shows up and says he takes what he wants, then tells him that the Chinese character on the box is a symbol of war.

Sol Ruca beats Zaria in a Last Woman Standing Match. During the match, Sol Ruca and Zaria fight each other on top of the balcony, and as Zaria is about to fall off the edge and onto two tables, Sol Ruca pulls Zaria away. Sol Ruca and Zaria hug, then Zaria gets angry and shoves Sol Ruca off the edge and through one of the two tables below. Sol Ruca cannot get back up by the count of ten, and Zaria is last woman standing. (With Sol Ruca now a member of Raw, this is Sol Ruca's last match in NXT.)

Generation NXT - NXT recap for March 10, 2026

Tatum Paxley heads to the ring to start tonight's show. Tatum says that for the longest time, she felt like she was getting noticed wrong and kept feeling alone, and wondered if everything was everything and if she should be "less Tatum." After Saturday, she realized she became a champion not because of The Culling (Shawn Spears, Niko Vance, Izzi Dame) or because somebody carried her there, but because the fans willed her to keep going, and now she has the confidence that she belongs that she has looked for for a long time. She states that she won the NXT Women's Championship for The Culling, but she won the Women's North American Championship for the fans. All of a sudden, Izzi Dame shows up.Izzi congratulates Tatum before reminding the fans of what Patum used to be like, and we see a short video package of Tatum at the start of her career. Izzi says that Tatum is fake and has not changed, and has just continued to prove that she is not a weirdo.

Izzi then attacks Tatum after demanding the title back and Tatum runs into Shawn Spears and Niko Vance.

Tony D'Angelo heads to the ring. D'Angelo says that he came back for two reasons. The first is to destroy DarkState, which he did at Vengeance Day, and D'Angelo commends Dion Lennox for dying on his shield. The second reason is something "the man in the mirror" was incapable of achieving. He says that he buried his past self six feet under so he could prove he is the baddest in NXT and win the NXT Championship. He says that Joe Hendry is a sensation, and while his past self would want to break bread with him, he is now willing to break his face, then says this is not business, but personal. D'Angelo gives Hendry one warning to prepare himself for his actions, for he will not be denied and he will be NXT Champion.



Backstage, Lola Vice meets with Sol Ruca. Lola says that she sees the next NXT Women's Champion in Sol Ruca and hopes to face her for the title. Sol Ruca plans to beat Jacy Jayne and take care of Zaria as well.

OTM (Bronco Nima and Lucien Price) shows up and fights with DarkState (Saquon Shugars and Osiris Griffin), turning the meeting into mass chaos.

Backstage, Blake Howard interviews Fatal Influence (Jacy Jayne, Fallon Henley, Lainey Reid). Jacy Jayne says she must make the impossible to enter Stand & Deliver as champion, as the odds are stacked against her. Fallon Henley says that all she has to do is beat Wren Sinclair within five minutes, then Wren Sinclair and Kendal Grey show up. Wren says she can beat Fallon in five minutes, and Kendal Grey predicts that Fatal Influence will lose one of their titles and that she just might be the one to take one of them.

Saints soon hits Hendry with a Spear, but Ethan wants Saints to let him get the win.

Tony D'Angelo makes his way to the ring. D'Angelo says it has been seven months since he got an opportunity to talk to the fans, and that he has some things to get off his chest. He says that the fans know his past in NXT and that he was a happy man a year ago who was surrounded by family, friends and people he could look in the eye and say that he has their back. D'Angelo says that this was all taken away from him, and that was the wake-up call he needed. He says that when you are good at what he is involved in, your life changes and you gain friends and family as well as a huge responsibility. He says that he needed to sit in a dark room and remember who he was on his own, and remember what he did before he came to NXT and remember what he did best: bouncing people's heads off the mat. D'Angelo says he returned to NXT the way that he did to keep people guessing and ensured that nobody knew anything, then says that this is a selfish business as well as a selfish time in NXT, which aligns exactly with his plans. He then says he has two reasons for coming back. One is punishing DarkState (Dion Lennox, Cutler James, Saquon Shugars, Osiris Griffin) for taking everything from him and taking everything from them in response. The other will be revealed when he is done with DarkState.

He says his smile has hidden frustration because he has not become a champion, and he will continue to climb the ladder and give the fans a bigger reason to believe.

We see the accomplishments of current and recently former NXT stars in the Royal Rumble matches. Je'Von Evans is the iron man in the men's match with 40 minutes and 58 seconds (40:58) in the ring.

We see footage from before the show where Jaida Parker is attacked by Blake Monroe in front of fans. Security is forced to step in.

Channing "Stacks" Lorenzo and Lexis King beat Chase University (Kale Dixon and Uriah Connors). Afer the match, Uriah Connors walks away from Andre Chase and Kale Dixon and joins Arianna Grace, Stacks and Lexis King on the way to the back.

Fatal Influence (Jacy Jayne, Fallon Henley, Lainey Reid) is in the ring. Jacy asks the fans if they know what it feels like to have something only for it to be taken out from underneath at the last second. She talks about being in the women's Royal Rumble, and says that the match was going the way she dreamed it would go. She says that everything was perfect until Sol Ruca snuck up behind her, cheap shotted her and threw her over the top rope, taking her moment from her. Jacy says she has been carrying the women's division and that she was a better double champion than Sol Ruca was, then says that is time to kill the hype and defend the NXT Championship against Sol Ruca. Zaria shows up and says that Jacy sicking her "lap dogs" on her was not enough, then says that Sol Ruca has had plenty of opportunities and that Jacy should be worried about her ripping the NXT Women's Championship out of her hands. Jacy says that Zaria never gets any opportunities because Sol Ruca has proven herself and is loved by the fans while Zaria is only tolerated. Kendal Gray and Wren Sinclair show up and says it took all three members of Fatal Influence to beat her and wants to run it back with Jacy. Zaria tells Kendal to stay out of her way, but Kendal says she and Wren do not keep secrets from each other. Sol Ruca shows up and says everyone wants a shot at the Women's Championship, but Zaria says friends do not sneak off t. Jacy tells everyone to figure it out in their "weird little couples therapy," then Robert Stone shows up. He makes Sol Ruca and Zaria vs. Wren Sinclair and Kendal Grey, with the person getting the pinfall for their team facing Jacy Jayne for the NXT Women's Championship.

Generation NXT - NXT recap for January 27, 2026

Before the next match, The Vanity Project (Brad Baylor, "The Smoke Show" Ricky Smokes, Jackson Drake) have laid out Joe Hendry backstage. They try to lie to General Manager Ava, but it does not work. To make matters worse, Tony D'Angelo is on his way to the arena and surrounded by security. Ricky Saints is also on commentary, but not for long, as a tag team match becomes the new opening match.



DarkState (Osiris Griffin and Saquon Shugars) retain the NXT Tag Team Championships against OTM (Bronco Nima and Lucien Price) after The Vanity Project (Brad Baylor, "The Smoke Show" Ricky Smokes, Jackson Drake) run to the ring, which catches the eye of Hank Walker and Tank Ledger, who follows them.

The Personal Concierge look forward to facing Sol Ruca and Zaria for the Knockouts tag titles, and Heather and M try to drive a wedge between Sol Ruca and Zaria, calling them "fake friends." The Personal Concierge says that they have beauty, class and health and that they will keep the Knockouts tag titles forever.

Backstage, Zaria cannot get a hold of Sol Ruca. Thea Hail shows up and mentions the state of how friends are come and go before wondering about how to become a champion again, and this leads to an argument where Zaria is irritated that she cannot win championships while Thea stumbled into one. Zaria then says she will see Thea later.

Backstage, Myles Borne runs into "All Ego" Ethan Page, who tells him that he must beat Dion Lennox by any means necessary. As Myles says it is none of Ethan's business how he wins, Ricky Saints shows up, but Myles Borne is not in the mood for him, either.

Backstage, General Manager Ava finds out that Joe Hendry is no longer medically cleared as The Vanity Project (Brad Baylor, "The Smoke Show" Ricky Smokes, Jackson Drake) show up. They say that Ava cannot prove that they attacked Hendry. Ava says that Jackson Drake has qualified for the NXT Championship Ladder Match, but if Joe Hendry gets cleared, he will be part of it, too.

Dion Lennox beats Myles Borne in an NXT Championship Ladder Match qualifier after "All Ego" Ethan Page hands one of his championships to Myles to use as a weapon only for Myles to get caught with it, allowing Lennox to get the win and qualify for the match.

He then says that he will be the champion while everyone else in the match becomes a part of history.Ricky Saints shows up with a ladder and climbs up it at the entranceway before stating the view from the top is great and that while he sees a lot of potential, they are seeds that have not sprouted yet while he is the rose that bloomed in NXT's concrete jungle.

Izzi Dame is in the ring. She regrets trying to turn Tatum Paxley into something else, and says that if Tatum looked in the mirror, she would see the source of her problems. Instead, she had to be the bad guy and break her heart. She says that trying to eliminating Shawn Spears and Niko Vance does not solve her problems, and says that Tatum Paxley cannot be fixed. Izzi then says she was Tatum's cure, not the villain. After Izzi states that she took Tatum out of rock bottom only to put her back there when she refused to evolve, Tatum shows up and tells Izzi that she was listening and that she did care, and that she saw and felt everything. Tatum Paxley then says she is sorry...for Izzi being insecure and losing sight of who she is, saying that she has to put fear in people and hurt them to gain control and that Izzi is too scared to look into the mirror herself. Tatum says she needs friends that have been with her since the start, like the fans, and not friends like Izzi, and while Izzi may have gotten her at Deadline, she is not finished yet. Izzi says that if Tatum listened to her, she would still be NXT Women's Champion, and if Tatum wants to play games, she will play them. When Izzi asks Tatum what her next move is, Tatum challenges Izzi to a one-on-one match at New Year's Evil. Izzi says she is all for this so she can make Tatum lose twice, but after that, "playtime is over." Tatum says Izzi is not in control and that it is not over until she says it is. Tatum then bends backwards to avoid a big boot from behind and lays Izzi out.

Hendry immediately grabs the chair he is sitting on to use as a weapon, but it proves no match for the numbers game that comes to the ring for him.

He says that he is the new face of AMC going into 2026, then calls the fans' collective anger his happiness and states that nothing makes him happier than a room full of angry marks. He says that at the end of the day, the fans would backstage even their own mother to be in his possession, then proclaims that he will be World Champion for a long time and demands that the fans get used to it. Suddenly, Mike Santana shows up in the crowd and gives credit to Kazarian for seizing the opportunity and doing what he said he would do, and as much as he wants to stomp Kazarian's head in, he must channel his anger more strategically. He wants Kazarian to be on high alert, as the target is on his head and not his back, and in next week's steel cage match, he will take out the invaders from NXT before pulling the trigger on the target at Genesis.

Generation NXT - NXT recap for December 9, 2025

Oba Femi heads to the ring to start tonight's show. Oba says that true power does not bend or break, but watches the world revolve around it and says that he is true power. He says that the starts aligned for Ricky Saints at No Mercy and knocked him off his throne temporarily, but NXT was not the same without him on top. He says that the universe did what it does best and found a way to correct itself, and the NXT Championship came back to him. He says that this is the way it is supposed to be and that he is now done with Saints and focused on "The American Nightmare" Cody Rhodes. Oba says that Cody will see not the future or potential, but the now and the inevitable, then Ricky Saints shows up and congratulates Oba on doing what he said he would do, then says he is man enough to admit that Oba was the better man at Deadline. As for what is next for him, Saints felt at first that he would never be NXT Champion again, but he is coming back for the title and he is steering the universe back on track. As Saints demands a championship rematch, Je'Von Evans shows up and says that he is #1 contender after becoming men's Iron Survivor, and that he is now wondering why he should wait until January to have his title match. Je'Von proclaims that he is locked right now and that he wants his title match right now, but Saints wants to know what the rush is and says that Je'Von versus him is "the better play." Je'Von says that he is the now, not the future, and that nobody is touching him at 21 years of age. He says that Oba is the man to beat for the NXT Championship and that he is putting money on himself right now. Saints agrees with Je'Von, and Oba Femi gets angry over the two of them telling him how to run the show. Saints and Je'Von talk this up to cowardice, but Oba Femi says that he has always beaten Je'Von and that tonight is no different.



Backstage, we hear from Tatum Paxley, who says that Izzi Dame has destroyed the old her and that while she has nothing left to lose, Izzi does. Tatum produces dolls of Shawn Spears and Niko Vance and says that since she did not want to play Izzi's way, Izzi will now be playing her way, and after she gets rid of Spears and Vance, it will just be the two of them together.



Kelani Jordan beats Jordynne Grace after kicking Jordynne off the ring steps and into the barricade as the referee takes the chair out of Jordynne's hands. This causes the barricade to break before Kelani hits Jordynne with a top rope 450 splash for the pin and the win.



Backstage in the women's locker room, Jordynne Grace is disappointed with herself not being able to beat Kelani Jordan. Thea Hail says this is a time to believe in herself, not doubt herself, but Jordynne is puzzled that she is taking advice from someone much younger than her.

Blake Monroe heads to the ring. She says that the rest of the women's locker room looks up and idolizes her as Women's North American Champion, and says that she is in a giving mood for the holidays before hosting an open challenge for her title. The open challenge is answered by numerous opponents, and Blake is suddenly attacked from behind by Thea Hail , who puts her in a Kimura Lock and forces her to flee. Blake is soon surrounded by the women's locker room.

Shiloh Hill beats Lexis King in his NXT debut.



Backstage, Kelly Kincaid interviews Oba Femi. Oba says he has learned to expect the unexpected as champion, then says the end result is always predictable. He hopes "The American Nighmare" Cody Rhodes is watching, as while he knows what Je'Von Evans is all about, he does not know what Oba Femi is capable of. He asks Cody who will carry him when he puts him in the ground when he breaks him just like he will Je'Von Evans.

"All Ego" Ethan Page heads to the ring. Ethan Page says he came to NXT to drink from the fountain of youth and learn as much as possible, but all the people he asked questions to are all preoccupied with social media. He talks about how John Cena will soon become a distant memory and leave a hole that will be filled with a man with a giant ego: himself. He also talks about how he won the North American Championship and made it prestigious after he could not win his way back to the NXT title. Ethan says the best had tried to take his title and could not do it, and he decided to keep on conquering and became AAA Mixed Tag Champion. He then says that one's birthday, one's death day and the day one realizes he is the biggest Superstar WWE has to offer as the three most important days, and going forward under his supervision, NXT will be perfectly fine. All of a sudden, the lights go out, and Tony D'Angelo appears behind Ethan. When Ethan turns around, D'Angelo hits him with a spinebuster and leaves a black piece of fabric similar to what was in the box handed to General Manager Ava a few weeks ago.



Backstage, Dion Lennox runs into General Manager Ava, Myles Borne, Leon Slater and Joe Hendry. Ava puts all four men in a four-way match where the winner will face whoever is NXT Champion after New Year's Evil.

Fatal Influence (Jacy Jayne, Fallon Henley, Lainey Reid) are in the ring after the commercial break along with Kendal Grey and Wren Sinclair. Jacy tells Kendal Grey that she should be proud of her NXT accomplishments so far, then says this is as good as it will get for her as she has the fans supporting her and she is the present. She then tells Kendal that her reality will smack her in the face at New Year's Evil when her fifteen minutes of fame end the moment she loses, and that she will send her into a catastrophic death spiral as the fans move on to the next new thing. Jacy says that potential does not win championships, and while Kendal is Evolve Women's Champion, the NXT Women's Championship is a whole different level, and while Kendal tried to make a name for herself all year, she dominated this year. Jacy lists off her accomplishments from this year and states that she is a rock star in the ring as well as the foundation that holds NXT together, and that she will not let "a flash in the pan bootleg Kurt Angle" ruin her spotlight. Jacy says that Kendal stands no chance, but Kendal says that she is the one with the momentum now despite having so much to learn. She says she shocked even herself becoming women's Iron Survivor, and reminds Jacy that she was also an unexpected champion when she beat Stephanie Vaquer. Kendal dares Jacy to treat their match at New Year's Evil as a joke, and mentions the face that Jacy will make when the underdog bites back. Jacy laughs Kendal off, but Wren Sinclair sees this as the beginning of "WrenCC" taking all of Fatal Influence's gold. This soon leads to a cheap shot from Fatal Influence on Kendal Grey. Wren Sinclair makes the save, but the numbers game catches up.



Backstage, Kelly Kincaid interviews Hank Walker and Tank Ledger, who are wearing kimonos. They talk about their time in Japan, then they are met by OTM (Bronco Nima and Lucien Price). This leads to a match between the two teams.

They both apologize to each other and hug it out, saying they have never had a friend like the other before heading out.

Oba Femi retains the NXT Championship against Je'Von Evans after Ricky Saints pulls the referee out of the ring following Je'Von's counter of Fall from Grace into the signature two cutters. Je'Von takes out Saints, but Oba Femi gets the better of Je'Von and hits the Fall from Grace to win and retain.

El Hijo del Dr. Wagner Jr. wins, then he unmasks and reveals he is really Tavion Heights.



Backstage, Jordynne Grace is watching Blake Monroe's recent promo when Arianna Grace mentions Blake Monroe, and when Jordynne wants Arianna to walk it back, Arianna says that she wanted Blake to know that she and Jordynne are not related. This leads to Jordynne challenging Arianna to a match tonight.

NASCAR driver Cole Custer is the special guest ring announcer for the next match.

Lainey Reid beats Candice LeRae with 34 seconds (0:34) left to advance in the WWE Women's Speed Championship Tournament. The Angel Warriors (Xia Brookside and Lei Ying Lee) are seen backstage during the match. Also during the match, Sol Ruca and Zaria are seen with dry erase boards with messages making fun of both competitors.



We hear from Jaida Parker, who says that while Lash Legend got one up on her in their recent match, she put her through a barricade. She says she can see through Lash Legend and says that in their next match, Lash will be on her back from the reality check she will give her.

Backstage, Lyra Valkyria meet with Tatum Paxley, and the latter finds out that she can relate with Lyra concerning the situation with Bayley. Steve Maclin and Victoria Crawford (formerly Alicia Fox) are seen in the background, as are Hank Walker and Tank Ledger.

Jordynne hits Blake with the takedown, then officials and security show up to break things up. Stevie Turner and Robert Stone show up, and Turner announces that Jordynne and Blake will have a weapons match at No Mercy. Stone says that they can also bring all the weapons that they want, because the match will also be in a steel cage.



Backstage, Kelly Kincaid interviews Lainey Reid, who says that she has gotten her opportunity and that she has taken advantage of it. She hopes to give Sol Ruca some Southern Hospitality and become the next Women's Speed Champion. Fatal Influence (Jacy Jayne, Fallon Henley, Jazmyn Nyx) shows up, and Jacy Jayne wishes Lainey luck before telling Fallon and Jazmyn that she can handle Lola Vice on her own.

Jacy Jayne heads to the ring alone. She asks that everyone pretend that last week's match did not happen, as nothing about it really matters because she has been NXT Women's Champion for over 100 days. Jacy says she has gotten rid of every single label that everyone has tried to put on her, calling them all "so cute" and "so wrong," while stating that it is laughable that everyone thinks Lola Vice will dethrone her. She calls Lola Vice "a crossover act pretending to be a wrestler in [her] division," and while Lola has a good Instagram and has improved since she showed up, she is not ready to be champion. Jacy also mentions that Lola may have the hometown advantage, but she is the one who shocked the world and that she, not Lola, is the underdog in this story after busting her ass to the top while Lola was shaking her ass. She says that nothing and nobody is going to save Lola and that her moment will not be ruined, then Lola shows up and says that she actually has an ass compared to Jacy, then says Jacy has always needed someone to win while she did not. She also says that she was knocking women out to earn her opportunity while Jacy Jayne was on the rise, and that this time, she is a completely different person compared to a year ago when she last wrestled for the NXT Women's title. She says that she is not winning the title not just for herself, her family and her culture, but also her fans, and at No Mercy, she will knock Jacy Jayne out and become champion. Jacy says Lola might beat her ass, but she can see her and she knows Lola has been looking for validation from her family, and she will still be walking out champion while Lola tells her parents that their sacrifices were for nothing. She says that she will walk out champion while Lola will walk out her family's biggest disappointment, and that leads to Lola knocking Jacy out with a spinning back fist.



Halloween Havoc is live on Netflix and Peacock on Saturday, October 25th!

We hear from Josh Briggs, who says that the fans never cared about him and never will, and that the fans who hypocrites who boo him when he shows up yet cheer his matches after they end.

Backstage, Kelly Kincaid interviews Je'Von Evans. Je'Von says Josh Briggs won last time, but he will win this time even though Josh talks about him like he knows him. A loud bang is heard, and as Je'Von Evans says that he will win, it is revealed that Jazmyn Nyx has been attacked with what looks like a cooler.

He admits there are others worthy of facing Oba Femi, but he considers now the perfect time to call his shot and calls Oba out. Josh Briggs shows up instead, saying Saints walks around like he runs the place and that he is tired of outsiders like Saints getting shots they do not deserve. Saints gives Briggs credit for how tough he is, but he will not step aside for him and he will handle him right now. Suddenly, General Manager Ava shows up.

He says that his reign cannot last forever and that he will be the one to end it. Oba says he did something in Saints, and that it is fear. He says that Saints' career will reach new heights, but he will show him that he is not special and that he will make "the absolute" look "absolutely mediocre." Suddenly, DarkState (Dion Lennox, Cutler James, Saquon Shugars, Osiris Griffin) shows up in the crowd. Dion Lennox says they lead the way in NXT, and Osiris gives Oba and Saints the choice to either leave or be forced out of the ring. Saints picks the second option, which leads to a beatdown.
