The new regime of WWE, led by Nick Khan and Triple H under the Tko banner, has touched unprecedented heights of success. One of the masterstrokes pulled by the company was the acquisition of the Lucha Libre promotion Aaa. The deal was announced during the WrestleMania 41 festivities and gained major praise from fans.

Since then, the two promotions have produced some events in collaboration, and the fans have seen crossovers between the two brands. They will see it once again, as the Aaa promotion announced via their Instagram that the main roster, Natalya, and Nxt star Lola Vice will be competing at their upcoming event.

This response from Damian Priest has further confused fans on whether they are actually dating or things are just casual between the stars.

Match #1: Nxt Women’s North American Championship – Stephanie Vaquer def. Karmen Petrovic The following is courtesy of wwe.com:

Stephanie Vaquer is still the Women’s North American Champion, but Karmen Petrovic was more than game in the most impressive showing in her young career. A noticeably more aggressive Petrovic had the champion stunned on several occasions, but a well-timed Dragon Screw from the top rope and a subsequent Svb gave the champion the win. As Vaquer celebrated in the ring, Nxt Women’s Champion Giulia arrived on the scene and challenged her longtime friend to a Title vs. Title Match at a future date.

My Score: 3 out of 5 Match #2: Tna’s Moose def. Lexis King The following is courtesy of wwe.

Natalya and Bayley take pride in giving back to the pro wrestling business. The WWE stars have grinded for every piece of success they’ve had, which makes them among the most respected in the locker room. Natalya just marked her 18th uninterrupted year working for the company. The former Total Divas star’s road has been paved with gold and a few Guinness World Records. Bayley’s resume is also impressive with Women’s Championship reigns and Royal Rumble wins. Despite all their accomplishments, they are always willing to impart knowledge to today’s emerging talent. Charlotte Flair, Rhea Ripley, Ronda Rousey, Liv Morgan and Lola Vice are just a few who have spoken highly of Natalya’s ability to help them raise their game. Another is Bayley, who most recently began working with young talent on Nxt. After playing in the NBA All Star Celebrity Game on February...

Match #1: Nxt Women’s Championship – Giulia def. Roxanne Perez The following is courtesy of wwe.com:

The Beautiful Madness is officially on top of the Nxt Women’s division as Giulia defeated Roxanne Perez to become Nxt Women’s Champion. Perez dominated the early goings by targeting the challengers limbs, bending them back in excruciating pain. The Prodigy became increasingly frustrated by her inability to put Giulia away, and that anger didn’t serve her well as she miscalculated and was tossed off the top rope with a huge Double Underhook Superplex. Cora Jade came to ringside to help the champion, but Giulia kicked out of Pop Rox, rolled through the armbar, hit a huge Arrivederci knee...

The Nxt “New Year’s Evil” event on Jan. 7 drew the WWE developmental brand’s biggest TV viewership in over five years.

According to Nielsen data, “New Year’s Evil” averaged approximately 957,000 total viewers from 8-10 p.m. on The CW, with 341,000 viewers in the coveted adults 18-49 demographic. That is the best viewership for Nxt since September 2019, when it was airing on USA Network. It is also the best viewership for the show since it moved to The CW in October 2024, with the premiere on the broadcast network netting 895,000 viewers on Oct. 1.

“New Year’s Evil” originated from the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles. Among the matches on the card, Giulia defeated Roxanne Perez for the Nxt women’s championship, Stephanie Vaquer defeated Cora Jade, Kelani Jordan, and Lola Vice for the Nxt women’s North American championship, and Oba Femi defeated Trick Williams and Eddy Thorpe to win the Nxt championship for the first time.

The 2024 calendar for WWE is one that will not be soon forgotten. Not just because of the matches, moments, or even achievements committed to the WWE brand, but because of the in-storyline grudges that emanated from WWE programming. Even more so than the matches, it's the rivalries and storylines that bring viewers back week in and week out, and 2024 had several that were worth tuning in to.

One rivalry worth mentioning as an honorable mention is that between Chelsea Green vs. Michin, a fun midcard feud for the women's division that delivered an entertaining Dumpster Match and an inaugural Women's United States Champion at Saturday Night's Main Event. Similar can be said for Chad Gable vs. Alpha Academy, which almost earned a spot in the Top 10 had it not been paused by the Wyatt Sicks introduction and failed to regain momentum months after.

Oba Femi vs. Tony D'Angelo Rocky III...

Match #1: Kelani Jordan def. Lola Vice The following is courtesy of wwe.com:

Kelani Jordan scored a huge victory over Lola Vice, but it only came because of interference from the villainous Cora Jada. Vice and Jordan clashed stylistically with the former Mma fighter using her signature striking against the former gymnasts supreme athleticism. The two battled in a close matchup until Jade showed up with a kendo stick and swung it at Vice, and even though she missed, Jordan took advantage by rolling her opponent up for the win.

Welcome to this review of Nxt: Deadline, the latest pay-per-view/premium live event from the WWE’s third brand and a show that features the culmination of the “Iron Survivor Challenge” tournament that has taken place over the past few weeks. Let’s see what went down on the show!

Match #1: Men’s Iron Survivor Challenge – Winner: Oba Femi The following is courtesy of wwe.com:

Eddy Thorpe was unable to compete due to not being medically cleared, and it opened the door for The Ruler of Nxt to walk out of Minneapolis as the Iron Survivor. Wes Lee and Je’Von Evans kicked off the bout, and it resulted in The Cardiac Kid putting his foot on the ropes to steal a fall just before Nathan Frazer entered the fray. Ethan Page joined the match but immediately got rolled up and pinned by Frazer, resulting in a furious Page...

Nxt Deadline begins to wind down the WWE calendar year in explosive style in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Oba Femi returned to win the first Iron Survivor challenge of the evening, narrowly escaping a Je'von Evans pin to seal the victory. This sets up a huge feud with Nxt Champion Trick Williams, who successfully defended his title against Ridge Holland. Nathan Frazer and Axiom also retained their titles in an astonishing match with No Quarter Catch Crew's Myles Borne & Tavion Heights.

Lola Vice defeated Jaida Parker in a personal and physical Nxt Underground match, but the Match of the Night came with the Women's Iron Survivor match. One of the most must-see matches in the second half of WWE's calendar, Giulia emerged as the winner and new Number One Contender for Roxanne Perez's Women's Nxt Championship, but it was a night in which everybody came out looking like they had world-class potential.

Wren Sinclair is officially headed to Deadline after overcoming Cora Jade, Jaida Parker and Kelani Jordan in the Women’s Last Chance Fatal 4-Way Match. Parker was showing out early, using her power to thrash her opponents and at one point even stacking up Jade and Sinclair to hit a Double Silencer on the ropes. Jordan and Jade went back and forth after neither were able to score the winning fall, and that opening allowed Parker to get back in the fold. Out of nowhere, Lola Vice appeared and tried to hit Parker with a Spinning Backfist, but she clocked Sinclair on...

The Nxt Tag Team Champion flew around the ring and tried gas Page out, but the savvy veteran slowed the pace before being hit with a stunning Super Spanish Fly from the top rope. Page and Axiom battled with All Ego targeting his opponents back, slowing him down but not enough to stop hit him from hitting an incredible Hurricanrana, but Page countered the Golden Ratio with a huge lariat to win the match.

Frazer used his speed to shine in the matchup, using his agility and athleticism to keep Thorpe off-balanced. As one half of the Nxt Tag Team Champions, Frazer drew the ire of the tag team division, leading to another brawl at ringside.

Match #1: Hardcore Match – Jaida Parker def. Lola Vice The following is courtesy of wwe.com:

Jaida Parker sent a message to all of Nxt by going to the extreme against Lola Vice in a Hardcore Match. The two Superstars launched an all-out assault on each other with a host of weapons, culminating in Parker nailing a Teardrop off a ladder through another ladder, but it wasn’t enough to put Vice away. Vice rallied and smashed a trashcan onto Parker, beating her with precision strikes as well as a kendo stick before hitting a hip attack. The former Mma star locked in a tight guillotine, but Parker nailed her with a brick before hitting a...

It is best known for being WWE's third brand, but tonight, Nxt paid tribute to Ecw as they took over the famous 2300 Arena in Philadelphia, Pa. The night was filled with cameos from Ecw staples like The Dudley Boyz, Dawn Marie, and Rhyno, and was opened by Nxt's first hardcore match between Jaida Parker and Lola Vice. Wes Lee would regret assaulting Rob Van Dam with a steel chair before his match with Je'von Evans, as Rvd then headed to ringside to distract Lee and enable Evans to get the win.

Nxt Women's Champion Roxanne Perez was pinned by Zaria, as the Australian shone in a 10-woman tag match between Giulia, Jordynne Grace, Kelani Jordan, Stephanie Vaquer & Zaria and Cora Jade, Fallon Henley, Jacy Jayne & Jazmyn Nyx and Perez.

Former Nxt Women’s Champions Iyo Sky and Kairi Sane returned to Nxt for a tag team match against The Meta-Four’s Lash Legend and Jakara Jackson, but they left with even more enemies. Sky and Sane’s quickness was met with sheer power from Lash Legend who at one point dribbled their heads like basketballs on the middle rope. With the action going back and forth inside the ring, SmackDown’s Chelsea Green and Piper Niven crashed the scene and forced a No Contest by laying out all four Superstars.

Match #1: Stephanie Vaquer def. Wren Sinclair The following is courtesy of wwe.com:

The hype is real as Nxt’s newest sensation Stephanie Vaquer shined in her debut against Wren Sinclair. The No Quarter Catch Crew Superstar did her best to keep up, but the vicious offense from The Dark Angel was as brutal as it was impressive, allowing Vaquer to win comfortably. After the match, Nxt Women’s Champion Roxanne Perez and Cora Jade launched on sneak attack on Vaquer, prompting Giulia to save her.

Roxanne Perez continues her epic reign as Nxt Women’s Champion as she overcame her greatest test yet in the global sensation Giulia. The Prodigy and The Beautiful Madness locked horns and were every bit each other’s equal, but it was the challenger that began unleashing hellish blows that left the champion looking for an answer that came in the form of a Tope Suicida. Giulia hit a remarkable Double Underhook Suplex and soon hit a signature G-Trigger, but it wasn’t enough to end the match. Perez nailed Pop Rox shortly after out of nowhere, but the challenger wisely rolled out of the ring. A...

Former Nxt Women’s Champion Lyra Valkyria’s return to Nxt was a successful one as she helped Tatum Paxley take down the evil team of Wendy Choo and Tna’s Rosemary. The teamwork of Valkyria and Paxley was on full display as they used impeccable tag team maneuvers to gain control, including a stereo dropkick through the ropes. Rosemary and Choo regained the advantage thanks to well-timed kick from the Nxt Superstar, but Paxley persevered and refused to give in on behalf of her team. The longtime friends rallied in a huge way with Valkyria hitting a Diving Leg Drop from the top rope to win the match.

Roxanne Perez has done more at age 22 in WWE than some may do their entire career. “The Prodigy” currently reigns as the WWE Nxt women’s champion. It has been an impressive run for Perez who successfully held on to the gold against the likes of Chelsea Green, Natalya, Lola Vice, Lyra Valkyria, and even Tna’s own Jordynne Grace. Confidence continues to grow for the impressive talent with each outing as the brand’s show gears up for its move to The CW on October 1. Perez hopes to be the champ for the milestone event. Jaida Parker stands in her way from making that happen. The emerging superstar looks to take the title at No Mercy on September 1. Here Perez gives her thoughts on Parker, learning under Cm Punk and wanting to build a legacy. Who are you channeling when you are playing this villainous character on TV?

Out of nowhere, Vic Joseph innocuously said Joe Hendry’s name and he appeared, much to the delight of the Nxt Universe, and the Tna star joined the Nxt commentary team for the match.

Things are heating up in the WWE Nxt women’s division, and a big reason for that is Miami’s spicy Lola Vice (Valerie Loureda). The Mma fighter has made a smooth transition into pro wrestling thanks to her innate charisma and ability to entertain audiences. However, at the Nxt Battleground: Las Vegas it’ll be all business as she competes in the brutal Nxt Underground match against fellow fighter Shayna Baszler. Vice defeated the legendary Natalya in what was the first time two women faced off in the environment. The 25-year-old is looking for a similar result against her former training partner. This time around brings a new atmosphere with the Peacock Premium Live Event (Ple) taking place in the UFC Apex. The venue has held Power Slap and UFC events in the past, especially during the Covid-19 pandemic without fans. It’s new, yet familiar territory for the participants.

The first entrant into the Nxt Women’s North American Title Ladder Match at Nxt Battleground was determined when Sol Ruca and Izzi Dame went toe-to-toe for the honor. Ruca looked to use her aerial attack but took a hard fall to the outside before Dame chucked her onto the announce table. Dame, even without former mentor Kiana James by her side, grounded the high-flying Ruca. Just as Dame looked to be in control, Ruca hit the Soul Snatcher, booking her ticket to Las Vegas.

Match #1: Nxt North American Championship – Oba Femi def. Ivar The following is courtesy of wwe.com:

Oba Femi threw down in a matchup between two of the biggest and baddest Superstars when he tangled with Ivar, but in the end it was the champion that walked out still North American Champion. The Viking Raider looked dominant early on, using his unique athleticism for his 360lb frame to stagger the champion and even crashing him through the barricade at ringside and hitting a moonsault to the outside. Femi proved his championship mettle by withstanding a Doomsault by sticking his right foot on the rope, forcing the break. Ivar went for another Doomsault...

Match #1: Noam Dar def. Dijak The following is courtesy of wwe.com:

The numbers game of the Meta-Four proved dividends for Noam Dar as Supernova 11 conquered the much larger Dijak thanks to Lash Legend, Jakara Jackson, and Oro Mensah. Dijak laid into the Scottish Superstar, crushing him with brutal chops, strong strikes, and back-breaking tosses across the ring. Dar was even on the receiving end of a ring-shaking sit-out chokeslam. Dar managed to rally and hit a Fisherman Buster on the larger Dijak, parlaying that move into an armbar that incapacitated his arm. After trading incredible shots, Dijak became distracted by Mensah who jumped on the apron, allowing Dar to hit Nova Roller to pick up the huge win.

Match #1: Kiana James & Izzi Dame def. Fallon Henley & Kelani Jordan The following is courtesy of wwe.com:

Fallon Henley and Kelani Jordan paired up once again to take on the conniving Kiana James and Izzi Dame in tag team action after the four Superstars clashed at Stand & Deliver. Henley and Jordan rode that momentum from Saturday afternoon early on, but the size and strength of Dame flipped the script and allowed herself and Kiana to gain full control. Jordan ended up finding herself in the cross hairs of Dame, but Henley saved her from a big boot, however it allowed James to hit 401K to score the victory for her team.

Match #1: Nathan Frazer & Axiom def. The Lwo and Luke Gallows & Karl Anderson The following is courtesy of wwe.com:

Nathan Frazer and Axiom are officially headed to Stand & Deliver after the dynamic duo defeated The Lwo and Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson in a Triple Threat Tag Team Match to become the No. 1 Contenders to the Nxt Tag Team Titles. The speed of Frazer and Axiom was matched by Joaquin Wilde and Cruz Del Toro, but the brute strength of Gallows and Anderson clashed with their speedy and athletic opponents. Chaos ensued when all six Superstars found themselves in the ring, and a Magic Killer to Wilde opened the door for Frazer to hit a scintillating 450 Splash to punch his team’s ticket to Stand & Deliver.

Match #1: Dijak def. Shawn Spears The following is courtesy of wwe.com:

In a match with major Nxt Stand & Deliver implications, Dijak managed outlast Shawn Spears in an incredible one-on-one match between two of the brand’s best. As the two Superstars warred inside the ring, Joe Gacy appeared from under the ring and stole Spears’ signature steel chair, seemingly helping his former rival Dijak. After a brutal, hard-hitting affair, Spears went looking for his chair only to find it missing. The slight distraction gave Dijak enough time to recover and after another back and forth, he finally managed to hit Feast Your Eyes to give him the major win.

Match #1: Noam Dar & Oro Mensah def. Von Wagner & Mr. Stone The following is courtesy of wwe.com:

Von Wagner and Mr. Stone have never been on the same page more than they have been right now, but it still wasn’t enough to trip up The Meta-Four. The chaos started early as all four Superstars brawled before the match even began, but thankfully an official broke it up long enough for the bout to begin. The action was fast and furious with Wagner showing off his incredible power, but the numbers game of The Meta-Four factored in as Jakara Jackson and Lash Legend distracted the official long enough for Mensah to hit a cheap shot and allow Dar to sneak in the winning pinfall.

Even though the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic has concluded, Axiom and Nathan Frazer are still teaming together and picked up a big win over Edris Enofé and Malik Blade. The action was fast and furious as all four Superstars showed off their incredible athleticism, punctuated by a Spanish Fly/Phoenix Splash combo from Axiom and Frazer. After Blade wiped out on the outside, Enofé was left all alone in the ring where Frazer hit another Phoenix Splash followed by a Golden Ratio from Axiom to give them the win.

The team of Baron Corbin and Bron Breakker managed to put their differences aside to win the 2024 Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic by defeating Carmelo Hayes and Trick Williams in the Finals. Breakker and Corbin were Superstars on a mission, using their power to dominate early with Breakker even launching his teammate over the top rope right onto Trick Melo Gang. One slip up opened the door for Trick Melo Gang, but Williams found himself in the crosshairs of a Breakker spear, only for Hayes to sacrifice himself. The sheer force of the move knocked Williams out of the ring and he...
