1. As tonight’s NXT show kicks off, Roxanne Perez makes her way down to the ring with an air of confidence. Addressing the events of Stand And Deliver, Roxanne declares that justice has been served for the woman who endured a year without her rightful title. She speaks of a journey she was unwillingly forced to embark upon, asserting that now, balance has been restored to the universe. With a steely resolve, Roxanne admits to targeting Lyra Valkyria’s injured arm, unapologetically stating her intent to exploit any weakness in her opponent. Dismissing Lyra as a “stupid champion,” Roxanne asserts her dominance, proclaiming that no one can strip her of her hard-won title.

Suddenly, Lyra Valkyria makes her presence known, questioning Roxanne’s abrupt departure plans after a mere two days as champion. Lyra urges Roxanne to take her talents to Raw or SmackDown, but to leave the NXT title behind, as she vows to reclaim it in a rematch, despite her arm being encased in a sling. Roxanne challenges Lyra’s rationale, only to be interrupted by Tatum, who asserts her own readiness to compete. Despite Lyra’s protests, Tatum takes matters into her own hands, sending her crashing into the ring steps.

Just as Roxanne attempts to evade a title match, Natalya unexpectedly enters the fray, eager to seize the opportunity to challenge for the NXT Championship—the one title that has eluded her grasp. Despite Lyra’s efforts to dissuade her, General Manager Ava Raine intervenes, officially sanctioning the match for later that evening. As Roxanne seeks to gain the upper hand with a cheap shot, Natalya proves to be one step ahead, outsmarting her adversary and setting the stage for an electrifying showdown later in the night.

Axiom chimes in, acknowledging their past as rivals but affirming their shared goal of reaching the pinnacle. Frazer adds that if they can’t succeed this time, they may be forced to part ways.
If you used your mind then Jacy Jayne is not the bad person in this storyline, its Andre Chase, because he was lying to Thea Hail and using the CHASE U students all along.#WWENXT pic.twitter.com/TlO5KPLjiY

4. Earlier today, at the Chase University campus, Kelani Jordan and Fallon Henley received honorary certificates for their contributions at Stand And Deliver. Unexpectedly, Jacy Jayne and Jasmyn Nyx make an appearance, revealing a surprising revelation. They disclose that Chase University was actually bailed out due to a bet made by Andre Chase back in July, where he wagered on Jacy Jayne winning the NXT Women’s Championship but ended up losing big. They point fingers at Thea Hail, labeling her as “the problem.” Andre Chase admits to the truth and apologizes, promising to support Jacy Jayne in the future.

Luca Crusifino informs them that Tony D’Angelo won’t return until the following week. Stacks from The D’Angelo Family accuses the No Quarter Catch Crew of reluctance to engage directly and preferring to delegate tasks. This escalates into a tag team match between the two factions, prompted by Arianna Rizzo suggesting they settle their differences in the ring that night.
8. In backstage footage captured earlier today, Kelly Kincaid approaches Ridge Holland, seeking clarification regarding his recent altercation with Joe Gacy involving a chair. Suddenly, Joe Gacy emerges from behind some curtains, expressing understanding as he relates to transitioning from being a Superstar to a member of the countdown panel. Ridge Holland walks away, only to encounter Joaquin Wilde and Cruz del Toro, who express scepticism towards his “apology tour.” As Ridge Holland exits the building, Cruz del Toro attempts to follow him but ends up injuring his fingers as his hand gets caught in the closing door.

14. Trick Williams strides confidently into the ring, reflecting on the recent record-breaking showdown with Carmelo Hayes. While he doesn’t condone Carmelo’s actions, Trick acknowledges him as “himself.” He then shifts focus to his own aspirations, declaring his pursuit of the NXT Championship. Inviting Ilja Dragunov to join him, Trick expresses pride in his evolution as a superstar and charisma. However, when Trick suggests the fans want to see him as champion, Dragunov humbles him, denying him a title shot and citing his previous failure. Trick persists, asking who he must defeat for a chance. Dragunov warns him of the risks but grants him an opportunity at Spring Breakin in two weeks. If Trick fails to win, he must leave NXT. Determined, Trick accepts the challenge, but before they can seal the deal, Carmelo Hayes ambushes Trick, setting the stage for a steel cage showdown.
