Mixed Tag Team title match official for WWE NXT Gold Rush

Posted on by Joseph Currier

A mixed Tag Team title match has officially been booked for NXT Gold Rush 2025.

The two-week NXT TV special, being held at The Theater at Madison Square Garden in New York City, begins on November 18. After a challenge was laid out this Tuesday, WWE has confirmed that the lineup will include AAA Mixed Tag Team Champions Chelsea Green & Ethan Page defending their belts against Thea Hail & Joe Hendry.

Green & Page won the AAA Mixed Tag Team titles from La Hiedra & Mr. Iguana in Mexico last weekend. The new champs then held a celebration on NXT, but it was crashed by Hail & Hendry.

During the confrontation, Page thought Hendry wanted to challenge for his NXT North American Championship at Gold Rush. But Hendry revealed that he wasn’t alone, naming Hail as his partner for a Mixed Tag Team title bout. They stood tall after Hail popped out of the cake and left Green, Page, and Alba Fyre covered in whipped cream.

Week one of Gold Rush will air live on The CW at 8 p.m. Eastern on November 18. The following week’s part two on November 25 will be a taped episode filmed alongside the original night.

The following matches are also set for Gold Rush (nights to be announced):

  • Triple threat match: TNA Knockouts Champion Kelani Jordan defends against Lei Ying Lee and Jordynne Grace
  • NXT Women’s North American Champion Blake Monroe defends against Sol Ruca (if Ruca is cleared)
  • WWE Speed Women’s Championship tournament finals Zaria vs. either Fallon Henley or Skylar Rae

Title matches and challenges made for WWE NXT Gold Rush

Title matches and challenges were made for NXT Gold Rush.

Kelani Jordan cemented her heel turn on this week’s NXT, saying she was going to embrace being selfish and wouldn’t defend the title all the time. If that makes her a traitor, then so be it. She then said she knew Lei Ying Lee had called her out, but she is choosing instead to not defend her title at Gold Rush. Later backstage, Jordan told Ava that she isn’t the GM of TNA and can’t make her defend the title.

After defeating Tyra Mae Steel later in the night, Santino Marella appeared and announced Jordan would, in fact, defend the title in a triple threat match against Jordynne Grace and Lei Ying Lee later this month.

Blake Monroe noted last week that she was due to defend the North American title at Gold Rush. Meeting with Ava this week, the General Manager of NXT told Monroe that she would be defending the title against Sol Ruca if she is able to get medically cleared ahead of time. Monroe didn’t seem happy about that, but left after hearing from her “significant other” that will interview her next week.

The end of the show saw new AAA Mixed Tag Team Champions Ethan Page and Chelsea Green celebrate their title win from over the weekend. Page proclaimed that they would defend the titles against anyone. Green said she wished “Joe” was here, but Page told her not to say his full name. After preparing weapons, they went ahead and said his name, thinking he was in their celebratory cake. But Hendry instead appeared on the ramp and said he wanted to go after the Mixed Tag Team titles. He revealed his tag team partner who in fact was in the cake: Thea Hail.

It was also confirmed that the finals of the tournament to crown a new Women’s Speed Champion would take place at Gold Rush. Zaria won her qualifying match on Tuesday, defeating Wren Sinclair. She will face the winner between Skylar Raye and Falllon Henley, which takes place next week.

Here is the updated lineup for NXT Gold Rush:

WWE NXT Gold Rush (November 11 & 18)

  • Three-way for TNA Knockouts title: Kelani Jordan defends against Lei Ying Lee and Jordynne Grace
  • NXT Women’s North American title: Blake Monroe defends against Sol Ruca (if Ruca is cleared) 
  • AAA Mixed Tag Team titles: Ethan Page & Chelsea Green defend against Joe Hendry & Thea Hail (challenge issued)
  • Speed Women’s Championship: Zaria vs. Winner between Skylar Rae and Fallon Henley

New Mixed Tag Team Champions crowned during AAA tapings

Posted on by Bryan Rose

New champions have been crowned in AAA.

Ethan Page and Chelsea Green defeated Mr. Iguana and La Hiedra during Sunday’s AAA television taping in Monterrey to win the AAA Mixed Tag Team titles for the first time. The finish had Green pinning Hiedra to win the titles for her team. The match is scheduled to air next week in Mexico.

This ends the reign of Hierda and Iguana after nearly a year. They first won the titles by defeating TNA’s Decay (Crazzy Steve and Havok) back on December 8, 2024. 

After the match, Lola Vice came out to console Iguana after the two were seen talking together earlier in the night. Hiedra didn’t like this and ended up slapping Iguana, officially ending their relationship. This left Vice to comfort Iguana in the ring.

The new champions celebrated their win backstage, which was shown on WWE’s socials.

Last month, Green had issued the challenge for AAA’s Day of the Dead event, reuniting with NXT North American Champion Ethan Page. The two teamed up to defeat Tavion Heights and Tyra Mae Steele at NXT Heatwave back in August.
