Preview:
NXT once again emanates from the Performance Center in Orlando tonight on the heels what surely felt like the beginning of a new era last week. Three matches have been announced for tonight, including the NXT Women’s Champion in mixed tag team action. Plus, Zaria will appear for the first time since vanquishing Sol Ruca in a Last Woman Standing match two weeks ago.
The first target of the night was NXT North American Champion Myles Borne. After dispatching of a member of DarkState in a successful title defense for the second straight week, Tristan Angels sauntered into the Performance Center crowd to introduce himself to the champ. Just as Angels had wrapped up that introduction, Kam Hendrix from Evolve slid into the ring and dropped Myles with a vicious Uranage. Then, just a little while later, Tony D’Angelo addressed the locker room and discussed all the wrestlers in the locker room who are starting to circle like sharks, before finally addressing whoever had a gift delivered the previous week. Before long, EVIL made his NXT debut, delivering another gift to the champ that featured the same insignia that the gift the week prior did. Vic Joseph surmised that EVIL’s gifts to Tony were actually a declaration of war. As EVIL was leaving, Tavion Heights came in from behind to shoot his shot, laying the NXT Champ out and leaving him on his back, which set up British wrestler Will Kroos to make his presence felt and hit a moonsault on D’Angelo.
It was on the second week of NXT Revenge when Lola, fresh off of a successful title defense against Jacy Jayne, was celebrating when top challengers such as Kali Armstrong, Kendal Grey, and Zaria surrounded the ring. Up on the perch in the Performance Center that night was Izzi Dame, who was flanked by her Culling brothers Shawn Spears and Niko Vance. The following week, as Lola addressed the crowd, it was The Culling that would come down and their distraction allowed Izzi to take the first shot at the champ. Then, last week, it looked like The Culling had outsmarted Lola again. After Lola called Izzi out, Shawn Spears came on the tron with a cryptic message for Vice. As Izzi and Niko crept into the ring to stage another attack, it was the other half of the AAA Mixed Tag Team Champions to the rescue as Mr. Iguana returned to NXT to save his partner. The numbers game still favors The Culling, but the outlook is better now for the NXT Women’s Champ.
