WWE NXT live results: Two title matches, Nia Jax in action

Posted on by Chris Aiken

A pair of championship matches are scheduled for WWE NXT tonight.

Sol Ruca has an NXT Women’s North American Championship defense set, putting her title on the line against Tatum Paxley. It’s a title shot that Paxley earned when The Culling defeated Zaria, Ruca, Hank Walker & Tank Ledger — though Izzi Dame didn’t seem too happy about Paxley getting the shot instead of her.

Hank & Tank will be defending their NXT Tag Team title belts against the Chase U duo of Kale Dixon & Uriah Connors tonight.

After making her return to NXT last week by attacking Lash Legend, Nia Jax takes on Thea Hail.

Blake Monroe will also be in action against Kelani Jordan, Myles Borne continues his rivalry with Lexis King, and Yoshiki Inamura goes one-on-one with Channing “Stacks” Lorenzo.

Plus, the build to Heatwave continues with the PLE now less than three weeks away.

Join us for live coverage starting at 8 p.m. Eastern time.

**********

The show opens with the entrance of Blake Monroe. Her new entrance includes a mirror. It was cool enough I think if The Narcissist had the camera shot as part of his act in 1993, he might have gotten over better.

The entrance of Kelani Jordan is next, and she rushes into the ring, and the opening match is quickly under way. Maybe they were born with it. Or maybe it was Maybelline, which is a sponsor with their brand name on the center of the mat.

Blake Monroe vs. Kelani Jordan

Jordynne Grace returns during the match wearing a neck brace. Monroe flees the ring and Jordan wins via countout.

The bout itself was rather short, but it was more of a vehicle for an angle. More on vehicles later, as Monroe would speed away in an SUV to escape Grace. Monroe with heat on Jordan early in the match. Jordan with a comeback, and she locks in a half crab. Monroe gets a rope break.

Jordan leaps off the top rope, but Monroe cuts her off with a headbutt. Running knee strike by Monroe and a near fall on Jordan. Monroe goes to follow up when the theme music for Jordynne Grace blares on the speakers.

Out comes Grace wearing a neck brace, and Grace walks straight into the ring like she is on a mission. Monroe powders, and she runs for her life. Monroe gets into the back of a waiting SUV, and the automobile speeds away. Meanwhile, the referee is counting out Monroe. After a ten count, Jordan wins the match.

Match result: Kelani Jordan defeats Blake Monroe via countout

— In a backstage skit ahead of the next bout, Andre Chase is giving Chase U students Uriah Connors and Kale Dixon a pep talk. Chase did not like their odds in the tag title match, and they did the “so you’re saying there’s a chance” bit from Dumb & Dumber.

NXT Tag Team Champions Hank Walker & Tank Ledger vs. Uriah Connors & Kale Dixon (with Andre Chase)

Hot match, even with babyfaces on both sides. Connors & Dixon get to shine some, and Dixon does a flip dive over the top rope. He misses and rolls through a leap off the top rope. Dixon is then in the crosshair of Hank & Tank. Connors pushes Dixon to take a bullet for his partner.

Hank & Tank with a high/low powerslam combo on Dixon, and Hank covers Dixon while Tank blocks Connors from breaking the count. The ref stops the count anyway, and he claims Dixon got his shoulder up. The live studio audience was not buying it, and rightly so. Not sure it that was a botch, but it certainly was a bad spot.

Hank & Tank sandwich Dixon with a double standing splash, and they follow by once again doing their combo finisher. Hank then scores a pinfall on Dixon as the referee counts to three this time.

Match result: Hank & Tank defeat Connors & Dixon to retain the NXT Tag Team titles

Suddenly, the lights in the sound stage go dark. Darkstate is running in, and they jump everyone in the ring. They lay waste to Connors and Dixon. Darkstate with triple team moves on Hank & Tank. Darkstate stand pose under strobe lights over their fallen prey.

— Thea Hail gets coffee in a skit posted on social media. She cuts a promo on Nia Jax, and Hail is go wound up over Jax that she almost forgets her coffee.

Myles Borne vs. Lexis King

The match goes through a split-screen commercial break. Before picture-in-picture, Borne slingshots himself over the top rope with a plancha on King. During the commercial break, King cuts off Borne. King targets Borne’s ear, which plays on Borne’s backstory.

Borne eventually makes a comeback with Saito suplexes, and then he strikes with Borne Again (which is the name for what was formerly called the Zig Zag finisher). Borne then covers King for a three count.

Match result: Myles Borne defeats Lexis King via pinfall

— Darkstate as a group cut promos saying they are focusing on getting the tag titles. Despite being played as a serious promo, they included a crude joke for comedy. So much for taking them seriously.

Nia Jax vs. Thea Hail

The match goes through a commercial break. Jax played the monster heel and Hail was the babyface in peril. Hail fought valiantly, but Jax was merciless. Jax with a Bonsai Drop, and she sits on Hail as the referee counts three.

Kelly Kincaid is the ring for a post-match interview. Jax snatches the microphone out of Kincaid’s hands, and she cuts a promo on Lash Legend.

Out comes Legend to confront Jax. Legend flubs a line and then rushes into the ring for a pull-apart brawl with Jax. Security and officials pour in to separate them. Good thing security was there, unlike when Darkstate runs in.

— Jordynne Grace was pacing in the office of NXT General Manager Ava. Still in a neck brace, Grace ensures she will be cleared by the time of NXT Heatwave, where Grace meets Blake Monroe in a singles match.

Moose makes surprise appearance and a melee ensues

Soon comes another interruption as Je’Von Evans joins the party. The bickering continues, but with three people instead of two.

— More cross-promotion as Vic Joseph voices over a plug for the Canelo vs. Crawford boxing match that TKO is co-promoting.

— Arianna Grace and Heritage Cup Champion Stacks flirt with each other as Nia Jax and Lash Legend brawl in a backstage pull-apart.

— Wren Sinclair is in a kitchen lounge with Charlie Dempsey. She sings the Joe Hendry song, and Hendry appears. Hendry pops out of a refrigerator. The skit sets up a match between Dempsey and Hendry. Dempsey is referred to as a “sourpuss”, which Sinclair repeats for comedic effect. Dempsey storms off, and Sinclair asks Hendry to take a picture with her. 1`

Yoshiki Inamura vs. Heritage Cup Champion Stacks in a non-title match

Stacks ambushes Inamura before the bell. Stacks gets heat on Inamura. Comeback by Inamura and he runs wild. The fight spills outside the ring, where Inamura gives Stacks a stiff slap. Arianna Grace runs down to ringside and slaps Inamura across the face. The referee ejects Grace from ringside, but not before another run-in.

With the referee distracted by Grace, Josh Briggs rushed into the ring on the far side. Briggs ambushes Inamura with a big boot. Stacks then covers Inamura to win the match.

Tavion Heights confronts North American Champ Ethan Page and Chelsea Green appears

NXT North American Champion Ethan Page is in the ring for a monologue. Page cut a promo bragging on his victory over Santion Marella. Page then talks about the greatest Canadians, and Page puts himself at the top of the list.

Page then does the Nikolai Volkoff gimmick of singing a foreign national anthem. So, Page begins singing “O Canada” to a chorus of boos. Tavion Heights interrupts the anthem and confronts Page in the ring. Heights insults Page and challenges Page to a title match. In doing so, Heights mentions he is an Olympian.

The live studio audience chants “YES” while Page tries to dismiss Heights. Suddenly, they are interrupted by the entrance of Chelsea Green and Secret Service. Green is flanked by Piper Niven and Alba Fyre as she storms the ring and confronts Heights.

Green points out she was a United States Champion as a Canadian. Green was going to sing the Canadian anthem, but Heights interrupted that. Green insults Heights for being American, but she says even a “rude” and “ignorant American” would not hit a woman. Heights says she is right, and he decks Page instead. Green jumps into the arms of Niven for comedy. Heights then vows to find a woman that will hit Green for him.

— The Fatal Influence trio insults Kelani Jordan and Lola Vice in a backstage skit. Dual champ Jacy Jayne joins Fallon Henley in cutting promos on Vice and Jordan.

NXT Women’s North American Champion Sol Ruca (with Zaria) vs. Tatum Paxley (with The Culling)

Ruca retains after interference by The Culling and a doll. Lash Legend and Nia Jax also continue their ongoing brawl, which led to a stunt at ringside.

The title match goes through a split-screen commercial break. Before the break, Sol Ruca does a moonsault to the floor off the top turnbuckle. In setting up the spot, Shawn Spears interferes in the match. Zaria makes a save, causing Izzi Dame to get involved by arguing with Zaria. As they huddle together to argue, Ruca leaps into the moonsault.

During the break, Paxley cuts off Ruca. Paxley works the neck after targeting Ruca with a neckbreaker. Ruca with a comeback and rally. Ruca superkicks Paxley, and Ruca delivers a Rude Awakening neckbreaker. Ruca follows up with a running knee strikes. That sends Paxley out of the ring to regroup. Paxley then cuts off Ruca with a kick.

Paxley springboards into a Whisper in the Wind for a near fall. The studio audience chants “this is awesome” in admiration of the match. Ruca and Paxley tease a superplex, only for Ruca to instead catch Paxley with a sunset bomb.

Ruca post herself when she misses a charge into a corner. Paxley with a roll-up for another near fall. Ruca counters Paxley’s finisher into a pinning combination, but Paxley kicks out. Ruca lands on her feet after flipping off the ropes, and Ruca Spears Paxley in a corner.

Ruca slips on the top rope going for a springboard. They recover from the botch and they execute an avalanche neckbreaker. Double down after Paxley gives Ruca the neckbreaker. Meanwhile, Spears tries to slip Paxley her doll (seemingly to use as a weapon). Izzi Dame chides Spears for doing so, while Paxley picks up the doll.

Nia Jax and Lash Legend brawl there way onto the sound stage, which interrupts the match. They brawl at ringside, and they crash through a gimmicked section of the barricade.

Paxley is preoccupied with her doll, which allows for Ruca to deliver the Sol Snatcher. Ruca then hooks a leg and covers Paxley for a three count.

Match result: NXT Women’s North American Champion Sol Ruca defeats Tatum Paxley to retain her title

Gigi Dolin & Tatum Paxley earn WWE Women’s Tag Team title shot

Posted on by Joseph Currier

In the first match of WrestleMania weekend, Gigi Dolin & Tatum Paxley secured themselves a shot at the WWE Women’s Tag Team titles.

The pre-show of NXT Stand & Deliver saw Dolin & Paxley win a fatal four-way elimination match to put themselves in line for a shot at the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship. They’re getting their match for the belts on NXT this Tuesday (April 22), but it remains to be seen who the champions will be. Liv Morgan & Raquel Rodriguez have a title defense against Bayley & Lyra Valkyria at WrestleMania 41 night two tomorrow.

Lash Legend & Jakara Jackson were the first team eliminated from the four-way match. Roxanne Perez & Cora Jade were then eliminated next after Perez walked out on Jade.

It came down to Dolin & Paxley against Fatal Influence (Fallon Henley & Jacy Jayne). The babyfaces overcame interference by Jazmyn Nyx to get the win. Paxley took out Henley, then she and Dolin hit their Cemetery Drive finisher on Jayne for the victory.

Tuesday’s post-Stand & Deliver episode of NXT will air live from the BleauLive Theater at the Fontainebleau hotel in Las Vegas.

**********

Laredo vs. Jason Hotch (w/ Tasha Steelz)

The show opens up with Jason Hotch coming to the ring with Tasha Steelz. He settles inside the squared circle for the first match of the evening. His opponent, Laredo, comes out to a nice pop from the crowd. The bell sounds to get things started.

Hotch takes the early lead, overpowering Laredo and blasting him with chops in the corner. Laredo begins fighting back, landing a big kick and a neckbreaker. He heads to the top-rope and connects with a missile dropkick that sends Hotch to the floor.

Laredo follows up with a head-first dive through the ropes to the floor for the first loud “TNA! TNA!” chant of the evening. In the ring, Laredo hits a twisting senton off for a two-count. Hotch hits a rolling neckbreaker, Mustafa Ali-style, for a two-count of his own.

Laredo fights back, takes Hotch up to the middle rope and hits a Super Michinoku Driver for a close two-count. Fans chant “Uno Mas! Uno Mas!” but Laredo does not oblige, opting instead to blast Hotch with kicks. Hotch fights back and hits a tilt-a-whirl backbreaker for a two-count.

Hotch suddenly gets randomly paranoid about Mike Santana possibly being under the ring. He looks under the ring skirt as Tasha yells at him to focus. Laredo takes over, hits his finisher off the ropes for the pinfall victory.

Match Result: Laredo defeated Jason Hotch

Gia Miller Interviews Leon Slater

Backstage, Gia Miller interviews Leon Slater. She mentions his match in the main event of tonight’s Countdown to Unbreakable edition of TNA Impact, as well as his Ultimate X match coming up at Rebellion.

Slater talks about how nice it sounds to possibly be the TNA X-Division Champion. He doesn’t want to get ahead of himself, however, as he’s got business to deal with tonight. He remembers being hit with The System ring, but he’s grown since then and is a different animal.

He tells Brian Myers his focus is on beating his arse tonight and then, and only then, will he focus on becoming the TNA X-Division Champion at Rebellion.

Cody Deaner Approaches Santino Marella For Help

When the show returns, Santino Marella is backstage when he is approached by Cody Deaner, who brings up his TNA contract expiring soon. He asks him to help him out. He says it’s not all about wins and losses, it’s about entertainment and the fans.

He brings up being close to nearly pinning the X-Division Champion Moose. He says that’s got to count for something. Santino tells him he can face KC Navarro in an Ultimate X qualifying match. If he wins that and wins Ultimate X, he’s got a good case to make to get Deaner’s contract extended. Deaner thanks him and heads off.

Jazmyn Nyx (w/ Fatal Influence) vs. Xia Brookside (w/ Lei Ying Lee)

Inside the Impact Zone, the Fatal Influence trio from WWE NXT make their way to the ring. Jazmyn Nyx will be in action in the next match of the evening. Her opponent, Xia Brookside, makes her way out next accompanied by Lei Ying Lee.

The bell sounds to get things started. Nyx takes the early offensive lead, dominating Brookside and verbally taunting her all-the-while. Brookside starts to fight back, but in a Rocky II moment, they land a big kick at the same time that knocks the other down.

Brookside takes over from there, but as she nears a victory, hell breaks loose at ringside with Jacy Jane and Fallon Henley causing a distraction at ringside. Rosemary comes out and mists them, seemingly unexpectedly helping Brookside, who rolls Nyx up in the ring seconds later for the win.

Match Result: Xia Brookside defeated Jazmyn Nyx

KC Navarro vs. Cody Deaner to qualify for Ultimate X at TNA Rebellion

When the show returns, KC Navarro of First Class makes his way down to the ring. He settles inside to boos from the crowd. Cody Deaner is out next with a microphone in-hand. He talks about his job being on-the-line in this match.

Navarro ends up offering Deaner to take a $500 cash bribe to walk away and forfeit the match. He slaps each $100 on his chest for each of his four kids, and the fifth for his “misses.” Deaner says it’s not up to him if he leaves, but the people.

The people decide they want him to kick Navarro’s ass. He punches him and the match is off and running on that note. Navarro quickly fights back and takes over. Deaner eventually fights back and connects with his spinning TKO.

As Deaner seemed to have things won, Navarro wraps his chain around his fist and knocks out Deaner for the cheap victory. With the win, Navarro has qualified for the Ultimate X match at Rebellion.

Match Result: KC Navarro defeated Cody Deaner

Gigi Dolin & Tatum Paxley vs. Maggie Lee & Heather By Elegance

When the show returns from a break, a digital exclusive interview with KC Navarro gloating about qualifying for Ultimate X is shown. Highlights of George Iceman helping Maggie Lee beat Savannah Evans on TNA Xplosion is shown, and then a digital exclusive interview with Lee vowing no one can change her.

Inside the Impact Zone, George Iceman is on the microphone in the ring, introducing the crowd to Maggie Lee. He calls her an average farm girl. He brings out someone who is elegant, and that is Heather By Elegance. Their opponents, NXT duo Gigi Dolin and Tatum Paxley come out next.

Dolin and Lee kick things off for their respective teams. Dolin takes the early offensive lead over Lee. Lee eventually finds enough time to try and make a tag, but Heather refuses to take it. Eventually, Heather does get involved, hitting a double-team spot behind the referee’s back as Iceman provided a distraction.

In the end, however, it wasn’t enough, as two of NXT’s finest hit a double collision on Heather into a Sanitary Drive for the pinfall victory. With the win, they score a pinfall over one-half of the TNA Knockouts Tag-Team Champions, which the commentators emphasize on the broadcast.

Match Result: Gigi Dolin & Tatum Paxley defeated Maggie Lee & Heather By Elegance

Heather By Elegance Gives Out Title Opportunity To Multiple Teams

Backstage, The Meta Four, Gigi Dolin & Tatum Paxley and Spitfire all confront Heather By Elegance, Maggie Lee and George Iceman stating their claims for deserving TNA Knockouts Tag-Team title shots, after Heather and Iceman were already freaking out about Ash By Elegance learning of their loss tonight.

As all the teams are yelling at them, Heather panics and offers all of them a title match in a four-way. “Just stop yelling at me!” They’re all happy and leave. Iceman panics even more at the thought of Ash learning about this now as well.

Dani Luna (w/ Jody Threat) vs. Jakara Jackson (w/ Lash Legend)

After a quick digital exclusive where AJ Francis gloats about buying property ahead of his TNA International Championship match, a lengthy video package is shown documenting the historic AJ Styles vs. Samoa Joe vs. Christopher Daniels match from 20 years ago at TNA Unbreakable.

Another digital exclusive interview airs with TNA World Champion Joe Hendry and TNA Knockouts Champion Masha Slamovich promoting their main event mixed tag-team match against Frankie Kazarian and Tessa Blanchard.

Inside the Impact Zone, The Meta Four duo of Jakara Jackson and Lash Legend head to the ring for the next match. As they do, Tom Hannifan and Matthew Rehwoldt confirm on commentary that the four-way TNA Knockouts Tag-Team title match mentioned earlier is now confirmed for Rebellion.

Dani Luna comes out accompanied by Jody Threat and then the bell sounds for one-on-one action, with Jackson taking on Luna. Jackson immediately settles into the early offensive lead as the commentators spend several minutes ignoring the match to focus on the four-way title announcement.

The referee sees Lash Legend try and get involved one time too many, so she ejects her from ringside. Legend basically refuses to leave at first. Security and other referees come out but she knocks out the security. She ends up leaving anyways. A few minutes later, Luna picks up the pinfall victory.

Match Result: Dani Luna defeated Jakara Jackson

Elijah Takes Center Stage

When the show returns, a big grand introduction is made for Elijah. He appears in the ring with his guitar strapped over his shoulder. He sings one song and then plays to the crowd a bit. He then sings another song dissing Frankie Kazarian as the crowd claps along. “In TNA we Walk This Way!”

He goes on to issue the first-ever “Who Wants To Walk With Elijah” open challenge for TNA Rebellion on April 27 in Los Angeles, California. He mentions the challenge being extended to anyone from any company, whether they’re a legend or a new guy trying to make a name.

Brian Myers vs. Leon Slater

It’s main event time!

The Countdown to Unbreakable special episode of TNA Impact returns from commercial break to a special digital exclusive interview with Ethan Page. He talks about only having to focus on Joe Hendry in ten days. He knows Hendry’s arm is worse than he is letting on.

Inside the Impact Zone, Brian Myers makes his way to the ring for the final match of the evening in St. Joseph, MO., before things switch over to Las Vegas, NV. Because of this, the commentators point out none of his brothers in The System are here tonight to help him.

The rising rookie prospect Leon Slater makes his way out next to a good pop from the crowd. He settles inside the squared circle and the bell sounds to get things started. Slater goes to work on Myers with an assortment of kicks to take the early offensive lead.

Slater knocks Myers to the outside. He nearly does his dive over the ring post spot, but pumps the breaks as he notices Myers seeing it coming. Myers takes over when the match returns in the ring, focusing his attack on the knee and leg of “The Youngest in Charge.”

He ends up blasting him with The System ring for the cheap win. Hannifan and Rehwoldt run down the lineup for TNA Unbreakable and then the Countdown to Unbreakable special episode of TNA Impact wraps up.

Match Result: Brian Myers defeated Leon Slater

Ash & Heather By Elegance (w/ George Iceman) defeated Gigi Dolin & Tatum Paxley

The usual recap video package covering highlights from last week’s show airs to get things started. We then see George Iceman in the ring being booed. He cuts a heel promo before doing his usual elegant personal ring introduction for TNA Knockouts Tag-Team Champions Ash & Heather By Elegance.

After the champions settle inside the squared circle for the opening contest, the entrance tune for their opposition hits. Out comes WWE NXT duo Gigi Dolin and Tatum Paxley. The bell sounds and non-title Knockouts tag-team action gets underway.

Ash and Dolin kick things off for their respective teams. “The Liaison” between WWE NXT and TNA, Arianna Grace, is on special guest commentary for this one. Ash talks some trash out of the gate, and gets dumped on her noggin’ by Doin for her efforts.

Paxley tags in and hits a picture-perfect dropkick for a two-count. Heather tags in as well, and she ends up shifting the offensive momentum into her team’s favor. As she takes over control in the ring, another WWE NXT duo, Jakara Jackson and Lash Legend, are shown watching on via a monitor backstage.

After Paxley lands some Kawada-style rapid-fire kicks, Dolin tags in. Heather immediately takes over, however, and tags in Ash, who picks up where she left off, putting the boots to Dolin in the corner. She tags Heather back in, and she blasts a groggy Dolin with some big forearm shots.

Heather backs up and charges at Dolin, but runs into a big boot. She tags Paxley in. Ash tags in as well. It is Paxley, however, who takes the hot tag and comes in with a ton of energy, taking it to Ash. She hits a big suplex and a standing elbow drop for a close two-count.

Iceman pushes Paxley off the top turnbuckle, which the referee doesn’t see. Heather gets involved as well, which sets Ash up for the top-rope Rarified Air finisher for the pinfall on Paxley, giving her team the win. Afterwards, the Elegance duo’s beefcake brings their cake over, but Dolin and Paxley shove their faces in it.

Gia Miller Interviews Leon Slater

Backstage, Gia Miller is standing by with her guest, Leon Slater. She brings up what happened with Nic Nemeth and Ryan Nemeth last week on the show. She also asks about his match against Nic later in the show. Slater vows to get his get-back. The show heads into a commercial break.

The Aztec Warriors (Laredo Kid & Octagon Jr.) & Chavo Guerrero Jr. defeated First Class (AJ Francis & KC Navarro) & Frankie Kazarian

When the show returns, First Class duo AJ Francis and KC Navarro are making their ring entrance, in progress. Their music dies down and the entrance tune for their partner hits, bringing out the self-proclaimed “King of TNA” Frankie Kazarian.

The Call Your Shot Gauntlet trophy owner settles inside the squared circle and his music dies down. The theme for their opposition hits, and out comes The Aztec Warriors team of Laredo Kid and Octagon Jr., as well as their partner, Chavo Guerrero Jr.

The El Paso legend gets a big pop coming out, and he kicks things off for his team. Kazarian does the same for his. Chavo establishes the early offensive lead, and the crowd is loving it. All hell breaks loose moments later, as all six end up in the ring.

The Aztec Warriors and Chavo hit high spots as the show heads to a mid-match commercial break. When the show returns, First Class takes over after Navarro pulls some behind-the-referee’s back shenanigans. Francis takes over and taunts the crowd.

Octagon tries fighting back, but Francis splashes him in the corner. Francis hits the World’s Strongest double-slam on Laredo Kid and Octagon Jr. simultaneously for a close two-count, as the pin is broken up. Navarro tags in and picks up where Francis left off, taking it to one-half of the Aztec Warriors.

Laredo Kid eventually gets the hot tag for his team, and he immediately shifts the offensive momentum back in his team’s favor. The crowd comes to life in the background. Navarro and Kazarian try and double-team him, but he ends up handling them both by himself. Fans chant “We want Chavo!”

And Laredo obliges. Chavo gets the tag and the crowd explodes as he hops over the ropes and goes to work. The pro wrestling legend hits any-and-everything that moves, easily handling Francis, Navarro and Kazarian single-handedly. Chavo hits the Three Amigos on Navarro as fans chant “Eddie! Eddie!”

Kazarian stops him before he can hit the third, so he takes over and hits two of the Three Amigos on him instead. When he goes for the third on him, Francis cuts him off. Francis does the Eddie Guerrero shoulder-shimmy to taunt the crowd, but Chavo makes him pay for it.

He hits the Three Amigos on him, and isn’t stopped before completing all three on the big man. The crowd loved it and immediately broke out in a loud “Eddie! Eddie!” chant. The Aztec Warriors go to the top on the same corner and hit a double-dive onto Francis and Kazarian on the floor.

Chavo hits the Gory Bomb on Navarro in the ring. He then heads to the top-rope and hits the Eddie Guerrero Frogsplash for the pinfall victory. Great feel-good stuff here in El Paso. The show heads to another commercial break.

War Of Words: Sami Callihan & Mance Warner

When the show returns, a Rosemary vignette in a very Rosemary-style, airs, and then a war of words between Mance Warner and Sami Callihan takes place.

Santino Marella points out how both are handcuffed and there are a ton of security present to ensure nothing physical happens. The two sit on opposite sides of a table, with Steph De Lander on Warner’s side, and they speak their respective pieces.

De Lander also speaks up and they talk about possession being nine-tenths the law when discussing their TNA Digital Media Championship. Santino Marella speaks up and says they need to promise not to damage anymore company property or put any civilians in danger.

Sami calls De Lander a skank. She throws a drink in his face, which he can’t cover due to his hands being cuffed. Santino yells at them to leave. Warner and De Lander profess their love for each other and share a sloppy kiss while doing exactly that. After this wraps up, the show heads to another commercial time out.

Masha Slamovich defeated Jacy Jane

The show returns to the theme of WWE NXT Superstar Jacy Jane playing. She makes her way out and heads to the ring for the second TNA vs. WWE NXT showdown of the evening.

Jane settles inside the squared circle and her music dies down. The theme for her opposition hits, and out comes the reigning TNA Knockouts Champion Masha Slamovich. Tom Hannifan mentions on commentary that she is over 100 days for her current run with the title.

After the bell sounds, Jane does a snarky wave to Slamovich from the opposite corner, before charging at her. The two lock up and push-and-pull on the ropes all around the ring. They continue their lock-up back in the center and Slamovich slams Jane down.

Jane locks back up on the mat and they roll around without breaking it. They stand back up, and Jane yanks Slamovich back down to the mat by her hair. Slamovich takes back over and hits a big kick and sends Jane out to the floor. She hits a dive through the ropes onto Jane at ringside.

Moments later, a similar situation presents itself, however this time when Slamovich goes for a big dive through the ropes to the floor, she is met with a big shot from Jane. After a big follow-up from Jane, she looks into the camera and vows that she’s going to take over TNA.

On that note, the show heads into a mid-match commercial break as Jane adds to her offensive lead back inside the ring. When the show returns, Slamovich begins fighting from underneath back into competitive form. Jane goes for a punt kick from the ring apron to Slamovich on the floor.

Slamovich blocked it and pulled Jane onto her shoulders. She slams her front-ways face-first onto the ring apron from the floor. Back inside the ring, Slamovich builds on her offensive lead en route to hitting a Snow Plow for the pinfall victory.

After the match, Tessa Blanchard, who was banned from ringside during the bout, runs out and beats down Slamovich until Xia Brookside and Lei Ying Lee run out to make the save, chasing her off and checking on the TNA Knockouts Champion. The show heads to another break.

Eric Young (w/ The Northern Armory) defeated Ace Austin

When the show returns, a vignette airs showing Mike Santana being out for revenge on Mustafa Ali. Back inside the Impact Zone, the theme for Eric Young hits. He makes his way out to the ring with The Northern Armory duo of Travis Williams and Judas Icarus.

Young settles inside the squared circle for a first-time-ever singles showdown against Ace Austin in the next match of the evening. After Young’s music dies down, the ABC entrance tune hits to bring out his opponent. He joins him in the ring and the bell sounds to get things started.

The two lock-up and Young establishes the early offensive lead, focusing on attempting to isolate the arm of Austin and work it over. He stops and looks directly into the camera to send a message to Steve Maclin. The Northern Armory get involved behind the referee’s back and Young continues to dominate.

Young continues to tie the referee up to allow The Northern Armory duo at ringside to inflict additional damage to Austin behind the official’s back. The commentary duo of Hannifan and Matthew Rehwoldt sell home the fact that it is Young proving to Maclin what true trust looks like.

Austin begins fighting back. He hits Click-Click-Boom to shift the offensive momentum in his favor. He climbs up on Young in the corner and hits the ten-punch sequence, with the fans counting along with each shot that lands. Austin hits a signature move for a close two-count.

Austin comes closer and closer to finishing Young off, but ultimately another dastardly demonstration of what true trust looks like from Young and The Northern Armory duo lead to Young taking over again. Young hits a big piledriver to finish Austin off for the win. The show heads to another break.

Musical Performances & Fights From Joe Hendry, Elijah & Frankie Kazarian

The show returns to the familiar sounds of the smash viral hit, “I Believe in Joe Hendry.” With that said, the crowd comes alive and sings along as the TNA World Champion makes his way to the ring in his trademark silky-blue button-up shirt.

His music dies down and the “We Believe!” chants pick up. Hendry begins, “Say his name, and he appears. Your TNA World Champion is here in El Paso, Texas! And it was right here in Texas that I became the champ, and now everybody wants to know what is next for the TNA World Championship.”

Hendry reminds everyone he is willing to defend his title against anyone from any company, all someone has to do is pick up the phone and tell Santino Marella they want a shot at the champion. The familiar sounds of the guitar strum of Elijah is heard after he says that.

Elijah comes to the ring and tells Hendry he is not coming out here because he is the next title challenger. He assures the champ that he too “believes in Joe Hendry.” Elijah assures him he can trust him. He says they’ve become friends. He knows Hendry’s favorite color is blue and that he likes classic movies.

He then goes on to suggest he perform the favorite song of Hendry from a movie he loves, Toy Story. He suggests they sing “You’ve Got A Friend In Me.” Elijah begins singing, Randy Newman-voice-and-all. The crowd sings along. Everyone is into it, so of course, Frankie Kazarian comes out to break up the fun.

Kazarian heads to the ring insisting no one wants to see “this Hall and Oats nonsense.” He settles inside the squared circle with a guitar of his own strapped around himself. He tells Hendry and Elijah they are legitimately accomplished musicians, but everybody knows “real men play bass guitar.”

Kazarian plays La Cucaracha on his bass for the El Paso crowd, who responds with loud “You suck!” chants. Kazarian plays another offensive song aimed at ridiculing the local crowd, and he gets the reaction one would expect for doing so. Hendry stands up for the crowd and tells Kazarian it’s time he leave.

Kazarian speaks up and tells Hendry he knows he doesn’t trust Elijah, and tells Elijah that he knows he secretly hates Hendry’s guts. He tells them they need to be men for once and skip past all the nonsense and just beat the crap out of each other now. They beat up Kazarian instead, and then sing “Na Na Hey Hey Goodbye.” Once this wraps up, the show heads into another commercial break.

Nic Nemeth defeated Leon Slater

It’s main event time!

After matches are announced for next week’s episode of the show (see below), things head back to the ring for the final match of this week’s program. Nic Nemeth’s entrance tune hits and out comes “The Wanted Man” himself with his little brother Ryan Nemeth.

The rookie sensation of TNA, Leon Slater, makes his way out next. The bell sounds and the main event of the evening gets underway. Nemeth takes the early offensive lead, stopping to taunt Slater and the crowd. Slater gets one big move in and takes the time to lean down and taunt Nemeth in return.

Slater blasts Nemeth with a big move off the ropes and then follows-up with a spinning elbow that sends the former TNA World Champion to the floor. Slater hits his trademark running turning dive over the ring post to the floor, splashing on Nemeth as the show heads into a mid-match commercial break.

When the show returns, we see Nemeth regained the offensive lead during the break. The crowd is jeering and booing as Nemeth slowly and arrogantly controls his younger opposition. Slater begins firing up and taking over. He struggles, however, to find a way to finish off the pro wrestling legend.

Nemeth slows Slater’s momentum down, taking out the knee of the young rising star. Slater is essentially on one leg now, with another bum wheel dragging next to him as he tries once more to fire up for another comeback.

“The Wanted Man” cuts it short and looks to try and finish Slater off, only for Slater to keep finding a way to hang in there. Nemeth brings Slater up to the top and climbs up after him. Slater fights him off and knocks him down. Slater teases a Swanton 450, but Nemeth crotches him instead.

Nemeth then follows that up with a super-plex. Nemeth tunes up the band in the corner, timing Slater for a superkick, but Slater avoids it and counters with a Twist of Slate. He climbs to the top-rope and leaps for his Swanton 450 splash, only to land on Nemeth’s raised knees.

Nemeth goes for the immediate cover, but somehow Slater kicks out. Nemeth looks for Danger Zone, but Slater avoids it. Ryan Nemeth grabs at Slater from ringside, but Slater kicks him off. The brief distraction was enough to set Nic up for another attempt at his Danger Zone finisher.

This time, Nemeth hits it and scores the pinfall for the main event victory. After the match, Ryan Nemeth joins his big brother in the ring to put the boots to Slater. The iconic sounds of The Hardys theme hits and out comes the TNA World Tag-Team Champions Jeff Hardy and Matt Hardy.

The Nemeth Brothers run off. Matt gets on the microphone and brings up Nic and Ryan calling themselves the best brother team in wrestling. Matt says they aren’t medically cleared yet, but challenges The Nemeth Brothers to face them at TNA Rebellion 2025. The Hardys tune hits again and the crowd roars as this week’s show wraps up on that note.

Next Week (4/3/2025):
– Tessa Blanchard, Jacy Jane & TBA vs. Lei Ying Lee, Xia Brookside & Masha Slamovich
– Frankie Kazarian vs. Elijah
– We’ll hear from The Hardys
– Steve Maclin vs. TBA

Zaria in-ring debut, casket match & William Regal appearance added to WWE NXT lineup

Posted on by Josh Nason

This upcoming Tuesday’s Halloween Havoc fallout edition of WWE NXT will be a loaded one following some key additions made during Sunday’s PLE.

After making her on-screen debut this past Tuesday, Zaria will make her in-ring debut against an opponent to be named. Following Fallon Henley’s women’s North American title win, Zaria appeared behind the entire Fatal Influence faction and laid all three women out. It was her second appearance of the night as she stared down Giulia, Stephanie Vaquer, Cora Jade and Roxanne Perez following their tag team match.

Tatum Paxley will face Wendy Choo in a casket match. Paxley appeared on the set during Sunday’s show when NXT general manager Ava came out and said she needed medical attention after she was stuffed into a box by Choo this past Tuesday. Paxley demanded a match for Tuesday and spun the wheel on the set to “make it more interesting,” landing on the Halloween-esque stipulation

William Regal will make an appearance in an unusual way: cornering Lexis King as he takes on his son Charlie Dempsey for the Heritage Cup. As King was lamenting about how it was hard for him to find a cornerman, Regal walked up and said he would do it, saying he understood how the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree with second generation wrestlers.

Adriana Rizzo will call out her attacker from last week after saying she knows who she is.

The additions and adjustments join the already announced NXT Tag Team title match between champions Axiom & Nathan Frazer against Je’Von Evans & Cedric Alexander.

Here’s the current card for Tuesday on The CW:

  • Heritage Cup Champion Charlie Dempsey defends against Lexis King (w/ William Regal)
  • WWE NXT Tag Team Champions Axiom & Nathan Frazer defend against Je’Von Evans & Cedric Alexander
  • Zaria vs. TBA
  • Tatum Paxley vs. Wendy Choo in a casket match
  • Adriana Rizzo calls out her attacker

WWE NXT’s Tatum Paxley & Javier Bernal get married

Posted on by Ian Carey

Two wrestlers from NXT tied the knot this weekend.

Tatum Paxley and Javier Bernier were married yesterday. NXT stars Jakara Jackson, Nikkita Lyons, Lola Vice, Karmen Petrovic and many others were in attendance for the ceremony.

More photos and videos from the ceremony are available on Paxley’s Instagram stories.

Bernal announced their engagement a little over a year ago on social media. He included three photos of him proposing to Paxley on a beach, and a fourth photo that appears to be him proposing to himself.

Bernal has been out of action since June after suffering an injury on an episode of NXT Level Up. He later underwent surgery for the injury and posted to social media that he’s expecting to be on the shelf for six months, targeting a return near the end of the year.

Paxley was in action last on the September 17 edition of NXT. She teamed with Lyra Valkyria on the show and defeated Rosemary and Wendy Choo.

WWE NXT’s Tatum Paxley answers open challenge at TNA Against All Odds

Posted on by Ethan Renner

WWE NXT’s Tatum Paxley answered Jordynne Grace’s open challenge for a TNA Knockouts World title match at Friday’s Against All Odds event.

Paxley was the surprise opponent in Grace’s Knockouts title defense on Friday’s show, with Grace retaining with a Juggernaut Driver for the pinfall victory:

The NXT talent appearance at Against All Odds follows Grace challenging Roxanne Perez for the NXT Women’s Championship at last Sunday’s Battleground event. Paxley was part of a mid-match angle at Battleground where she tried to steal the Knockouts title belt before being thwarted by Ash by Elegance. Ash, the former Dana Brooke, watched the title match at Against All Odds from the ramp and was involved in a post-match angle with Grace.

Grace issued the open challenge first in an interview on Busted Open, then followed up on ensuing episodes of TNA Impact. Grace had heavily insinuated on social media that WWE’s Natalya would answer the challenge:

WWE Main Event results: Apollo Crews vs. Tavion Heights

Posted on by James Cox

This weekā€™s WWE Main Event was taped at the Capital One Arena in Washington, DC before Mondayā€™s episode of Raw.

Despite some fresh faces, the work in the ring never really dazzled and so the show was a bit of a damp squib.

Katana Chance defeated Tatum Paxley (4:48)

This was quite a tepid offering from the pair, that didn’t get going, but Chance is a good babyface with a lot of crowd-pulling potential.

Tatum Paxley is an NXT Level Up performer who has been in and around the show since the summer of last year. While she and Chance have worked together before, they haven’t done a singles match.

They laid out a basic match with Paxley taking advantage early of a slip-up so that she could work over Chance’s left arm.

After a few near falls, Paxley had a slip-up of her own where she walked into Chance’s boot. And that was pretty much it.

Chance hit a Sister Abigail-type flatliner move and got her hand raised to keep her Main Event record at 4-1, for those keeping score.

Apollo Crews defeated Tavion Heights (7:36)

A better bout than the opener, but Crews is still coming back from injury and Heights is still pretty green.

Heights made his Main Event debut here and certainly has a good look. His name, however, is pretty lame. He’s an Olympic wrestler so I would say his real name G’angelo Hancock is a lot cooler, but what do I know?

Crews is certainly a good person to debut against because he’s a guy who doesn’t get involved in too many bad matches and who knows his way around the ring.

As you might expect, there was a lot of mat work in the early going. After some grappling, Heights gave Crews a big boot to send him outside and we went to the break.

After the ads, Heights was getting some serious heat. People were booing him as he locked in a rest hold and stomped and beat down Crews. Heights dodged a charge and used a scoop slam for a near fall.

The finish was very ordinary: Crews used a boot to plant Heights and then he hit a top rope frog splash to get the win.

WWE NXT’s Tatum Paxley, Javier Bernal announce engagement

Posted on by Ian Carey

Two members of the WWE NXT roster have announced their engagement. 

Tatum Paxley and Javier Bernal took to social media on Sunday to reveal the news. The couple posted photos of Bernal proposing on a beach and Paxley showing off her ring. 

Bernal also included a photo that appears to be of him proposing to himself. 

Paxley is coming off a loss on NXT Level Up this week. She teamed with Dani Palmer and lost to the Meta Four team of Lash Legend and Jakara Jackson. She hasn’t gotten a win on WWE programming since the Level Up tapings on November 8 when she teamed with Ivy Nile and defeated Jackson and Legend.

Bernal’s last match took place on the August 29 Level Up tapings. He lost to Riley Osbourne on the show. He made his Raw debut earlier this year when he teamed with Kevin Ventura-Cortes in a loss to the Viking Raiders on the May 29 show. Bernal’s last win came against Boa on the May 23 Level Up taping. 

Carmella, Tatum Paxley suffer possible injuries at WWE house shows

Posted on by Ian Carey

Both Carmella and Tatum Paxley may have suffered injuries on WWE house shows this weekend. 

Social media posts from fans at Saturday’s show in North Charleston are stating that Carmella hit her head and was unable to continue her match against Bianca Belair and Asuka. 

“OH NO!! they threw up the x for carmella, she got hit in the head in the corner when bianca tried to back flip over her,” wrote @Sashasliv on Twitter. 

“She got up on her own to walk away which is good, but they were like shielding her eyes from the bright lights,” reads a follow-up post. 

WWE also held an NXT house show in Gainesville, Florida on Saturday. Social media posts from those in attendance are stating Paxley’s match against Sloane Jacobs was stopped early after Paxley was unable to continue. She is believed to have hit her face on the ring post after taking a kick to the head. 

Paxley would later post, “Thank you everyone for reaching out and checking in! Iā€™ll be ok! Accidents like these happen all the time in what we do. Plus getting blood everywhere is super heavy metal.”

Alba Fyre vs. Tatum Paxley, Josh Briggs vs. Von Wagner added to WWE NXT

Posted on by Bryan Rose

Two new matches have been added to Tuesday’s NXT.

Josh Briggs vs. Von Wagner and Alba Fyre vs. Tatum Paxley have been added. This is in addition to the finals of the NXT Womenā€™s Breakout Tournament, where Roxanne Perez will face Tiffany Stratton in the finals.

On tonightā€™s NXT In Your House, a video package aired showing Alba Fyre. After the video had ended, Lash Legend backstage didnā€™t seem impressed by Fyre and didnā€™t want to face her. Paxley disagreed with Legend and said that she would be the one to step up and challenge Fyre.

Von Wagner caused a distraction on NXT this past Tuesday, allowing Grayson Waller to defeat Briggs in a singles match. Wagner attacked Briggs after the match but was eventually called off by Sofia Cromwell.

Hereā€™s the lineup so far for Tuesday:

  • Roxanne Perez vs. Tiffany Stratton in the Womenā€™s NXT Breakout Tournament finals
  • Josh Briggs vs. Von Wagner
  • Tatum Paxley vs. Alba Fyre

Three participants announced for NXT Women’s Breakout tournament

Posted on by Bryan Rose

More names have been announced for the NXT Womenā€™s Breakout tournament that begins next week on NXT.

Fallon Henley, Tatum Paxley, and Roxanne Perez will be taking part in the tournament, where the winner will receive an NXT Womenā€™s Championship match. Vignettes shown tonight had Henley and Paxley announcing their entry, while Perez told Wendy Choo that she needed to prepare for the tournament.

Henley, who has been associated with Brooks Jensen and Josh Briggs, talked about her love of horses and growing up on a farm. Paxley, who in recent weeks has been vying for the attention of Ivy Nile, was shown working out the gym.

Henley, Paxley, and Perez join Arrianna Grace, Kianna James, Sloane Jacobs, and Lash Legend in the first-ever womenā€™s breakout tournament. The last Breakout tournament was held last year, where Carmelo Hayes defeated Odyssey Jones in the finals to win the tournament. Hayes eventually won the NXT North American Championship as a result of his tournament win.
