Tatum Paxley failed to exact revenge on Izzi Dame at NXT Deadline, as she fell to the mind games of The Culling.
Throughout the match, Izzi Dame tried to mess with Paxley’s head, but the former NXT Women’s Champion was equal to the task, leading to a back-and-forth matchup, with the former stablemates mounting offense on each other.
Paxley seemed to be in total control when she nailed Cemetery Drive on Dame, slamming the latter onto the commentary table.
However, as she rolled Dame back into the ring, Niko Vance and Shawn Spears, who had earlier been sent back by the referee, appeared at ringside and handed two dolls to Paxley.
Paxley accepted the dolls before Spears ripped the head off one of them, leading to Tatum slapping him. However, Dame capitalized on the distraction caused by her stablemates and put Tatum away with a kick and a sitdown powerbomb.
