As the WWE Performance Center played host to the recording of NXT’s next set of episodes, the wrestlers took to the ring to deliver a series of intense and action-packed matches. Among the key results was Oba Femi successfully defending his NXT North American Championship title against Lexis King in a quick five-minute match. The distraction caused by Robert Stone at the entrance stage played a significant role in King’s momentary lapse, enabling Femi to secure the victory with a pop-up powerbomb.
In another notable bout, Roxanne Perez claimed victory over Wren Sinclair with a “Pop Rox” followed by a Crossface, compelling Sinclair to submit. Perez’s impressive display left fans eager to see what the future holds for this young talent.
Josh Briggs secured a hard-fought victory against Brooks Jensen, delivering two lariats in around twelve minutes. What’s notable about this match was Briggs’ display of sportsmanship after the bout, as he hugged Jensen and exchanged words with him. This refreshing show of respect between rivals could pave the way for a potential redemption arc for Jensen.
The NXT Tag Team Championship segment saw Baron Corbin and Bron Breakker enter the ring to celebrate their title win, but their celebration was cut short by Andre Chase and Duke Hudson, followed by Nathan Frazer and Axiom. This led to an announcement of a match later in the night to determine the #1 contenders for the titles.

The resulting match pitted Andre Chase and Duke Hudson against Nathan Frazer and Axiom, with the former emerging victorious. The match concluded with Chase pinning Frazer after a series of pinfall exchanges, securing their spot as the #1 contenders.
Jacy Jayne, accompanied by Thea Hail and Jazmyn Nyx, secured a victory over Arianna Grace with a discus forearm. Interference from Thea and Jazmyn played a significant role in the match, as they distracted the referee and allowed Jayne to capitalize on the situation.
In another notable bout, Lash Legend, accompanied by Jakara Jackson, triumphed over Kelani Jordan in about four minutes. Jakara’s distraction paved the way for Lash to execute her powerbomb variation, securing the victory.
The NXT Women’s Championship match between Lyra Valkyria and Shotzi was halted a few minutes into the contest due to Shotzi sustaining a knee injury. Shotzi was assisted to the back, leaving Lyra in the ring. Ava then declared an open challenge, which was answered by Lash Legend. However, Lyra Valkyria successfully defended her title against Lash Legend in approximately five minutes, securing the victory with a top rope splash.
These matches have set the stage for a thrilling next episode of NXT. With the outcomes of these matches, we can expect to see new rivalries emerge and ongoing storylines reach new heights. As fans, we can’t wait to see how these results will play out in the weeks to come.
