Keep Refreshing For The Latest Results

Well, hello there, NXT fans! It feels like I have crossed over in the metaverse and now find myself as stranger in a strange land.

For those that don’t know me, my name is Ryan, and tonight, you have me in place of our Boss, Jeremy. I usually am on Wednesday Night for AEW Dynamite, but I’ve been around here, covering MLW, WWE Raw, and TNA. Looking forward to covering tonight’s episode of NXT and getting to know some of you fans a little bit better.

So, although I am not 100% familiar with EVERYONE on the NXT Roster, I know a large majority of the roster and who is who. And, as though not to say this as a copout, I just learned that Trick Williams is my favorite NXT performer, not because he is the NXT World Champion, but because he represents!

Fly Eagles Fly!

Also, as a personal aside, since this is New Year’s Eve, and if you plan on going out and drinking, please call an Uber, or have someone drive you who is sober. We do not need more fatalities or casualties tonight, nor ever.

The Show Goes on!

We are live from our home base, the Capitol Center, in Orlando, Florida. As usual, we have Vic Joseph and Booker T on the call.

We’re wasting no time with the action tonight!

Kelani Jordan vs. Lola Vice
Booker T is Randy Savage lol. The bell rings and we have a test of strength. they trade counters in the corner, Jordan with a drop kick. DDT attempt is cut off with a submission attempt by Vice. Jordan fights out, she puts on a key lock. Interesting strategy since I know Vice has an MMA background. As if on cue, Vice turns it around with a side headlock.

(Okay, I think I might have to mute these announcers).

Fireman’s carry into a wrist lock by Vice. Jordan up, Vice charges in and misses. Jordan to the top rope, cross body, but Vice moves. Vice with kicks, knocks down Jordan into the corner. She poses, much to my delight, and hits the hip attack, making me wish I was Kelani in this moment.

COMMERCIALS! BOO! GO AWAY! NOT DURING THIS MATCH!

We’re back, as Vice transitions a front chancery into a snap suplex. Another one. Vice does some shimmy and shaking, but Jordan counters out with a reverse DDT. The cover, two count, as Jordan losses her mind. So, too, does Vice, as she lands kicks, a whip, another kick to Jordan. She tries again, but Jordan lands a flash kick to the face of Vice. Both ladies on their knees, throwing forearms. Back to their feet, Jordan takes over, whip into a clothesline. Another one. She tries a cartwheel back elbow, but Vice catches her with a sleeper! Jordan up to her feet, she tries to shake Vice, to no avail. Jordan sits down and drops Vice on her back. Here comes Cora Jade to taunt Jordan, she moves, and shoves Vice into her. Jordan with a roll up for the win!
WINNER: Kelani Jordan
TIME: 9:55
THOUGHTS: Good action between these ladies. It was a strength versus skill match, and it’s a shame it ended with interference.
RATING: ***

Post match, Jade beats both women with her stick. Here comes Stephanie Vaquer! She disarms Jade! Vice goes to strike jade, but she strikes Stephanie by accident!

We get the match of the year nominees for 2024. The winner is a 3-way North American Title match between Oba Femi, Josh Briggs, and Donovan Dijak.

We have Josh Briggs live via stream. He wants to thank everyone who voted for his match of the year. 2024 was good for him, but 2025 will be better for him. Oh, and there will be a trophy in his feature, seemingly hinting at the Dusty Tag Team Classic.

Coming up next, the Moment of the Year for 2024 after…

COMMERCIALS!

We’re back. Hear no evil, see no evil, say no evil, NXT Year’s Evil is coming to Los Angeles next Tuesday!

NXT Spotlight with Giulia! She came to WWE because she knew it was her calling. Japanese wrestling is a world of grudges. and she wrestled seven years in Japan. Their spirit tells her to keep fighting on, and she names WWE women that she came here to face off with. She calls out Roxanne Perez, saying next week they will begin the new year with a new NXT Women’s Champion in Los Angeles!

We are ringside now, as Vic and Booker debate the match.

We have Sarah Schreiber with Cedric Alexander. In fifteen years, he never saw anything like how Je’Von Evans had his jaw broken. He’s worried about him eating solid food and his quality of life. And he saw the look in his eyes. Here comes Ethan Page. He wishes that one of those texts they exchanged said stay away from Page, because he is going to put Cedric right next to him in the hospital. Alexander launches an assault, and they end up fighting into the arena. This match is supposed to take place later tonight, but it will be up next!

In the back, we have an argument between Hank Walker, Tank Ledger, Tyson Dupont, and Tyreik Igwe. Here comes Shawn Spears, here comes Wes Lee to cut off his sermon. Spears doesn’t need this; he has what he needs and just walks okay. Alright then.

Back to the arena, here comes Shotzi Blackheart, Gigi Dolin, and Tatum Paxley for a three team women’s match! But we have to wait until after commercials, so boo!

THOUGHTS: Fun in-ring action from all the women involved. Another women’s match that ended with interference, but it was good in between the ropes.
RATING: ***1/2

Post-match, we have Isla Dawn and Alba Fyre on the tron. Last time they faced the Meta Girls, they had their hands raised. They have no problem running through them again to win their titles back. New Year, same Unholy Union!

In the back. Lola is trying to convince Stephanie that she didn’t hit her on purpose. Kelani is here to stir the pot some, and they start to shove each other. We pan out to Cora watching the action, here comes GM Ava. She needs someone to challenge Fallon Henley for the NXT North American Women’s Title. How about Cora versus Kelani versus Stephanie versus Lola next week to determine the winner? Jade says it’s fine to herself.

COMMERCIALS!

We’re back, as Vic shills Elimination Chamber coming to Toronto. In the back, we have Ava with Lexis King, Charlie Dempsey, and William Regal. She says that King won the Heritage Cup via nefarious means, and next week, they will face off in a Sudden Death, one fall match for the Cup. King keeps insisting that he won the Cup fairly, he did everything right, and Regal absolves himself from the situation and walks away. Ava gives the Cup back to Charlie.

Our next Award is for Tag Team of the Year!
-Chase U
-Lash Legend and Jakara Jackson
-Axiom and Nathan Frazier
-Hank and Tank

Frazier and Axiom are the winners! Shocking, they’ve held the titles two times in 2024. They are in the back with Sarah with some words. They started as rivals, but they ended up being great partners and through all the ups and the downs, they wouldn’t have it any other way. It’s pretty cool for all the fans to feel the same way. OTM show up, enjoy what you got, because they are coming for the titles.

To the back, Zaria and Sol Ruca are watching on and getting ready. Apparently, Sol has a match with Izzi Dame next!

WINNER: Izzi Dame
TIME: 5:00
THOUGHTS: Fairly decent, another match with some kind of interference, but it backfired and ended in friendly fire between friends.
RATING: **1/4

Hank and Tank in the back, they are asking someone off the screen to help them tonight, one time, one match, will you be our tag team partner? The screen pans out, and it’s Andre Chase. He thinks about it, as Tank offers him a helmet. We don’t get an answer because it is time for more…

COMMERCIALS!

We’re back, as Vic shills Fanatics Fest in June.

It’s time for NXT Female Superstar of the Year!
-Kelani Jordan
-Lola Vice
-Jaida Parker
-Roxanne Perez

And the winner is Roxanne Perez. She takes the golden ring bell from Sarah. She says there is no one on her level. She claimed what was hers once more and dominated everyone in her path. She dropped a pipe bomb on Mr. Pipe Bomb himself, CM Punk. She attracted all the talent from the around the world. Giulia is an international sensation, but unfortunately for her, your 2024 Superstar of the year is the one and the only one.

It’s time for our main event 6-man match!

Wes Lee, Tyson Dupont, and Tyreik Igwe vs. Hank Walker, Tank Ledger, and Andre Chase

Hank and Tank squash Lee in the middle of the ring, while Chase goes to the top, he hits a front flip senton to the floor on Igwe and Dupont!

COMMERCIALS!

We’re back, as Hank is trying to tag out, but Igwe cuts him off and hits a drop kick. Igwe whips Hank into Dupont for a powerslam. Lee tags in, cover for a two count. Lee and Hank trade in the middle of the ring. Lee with a back kick and an elbow, he knocks Tank and Chase off the apron. Lee tries a DDT, Hank cuts it off, but Lee switches into a sleeper.

Lee with a big kick to Hank, sit-out stunner by Igwe for the three count.
WINNER: Wes Lee, Tyreik Igwe, and Tyson Dupont
TIME: 11:30
THOUGHTS: Fairly good match, it was more about the drama of will Chase take part or not, and when he left, the conclusion was adamant.
RATING: ***1/4

In the back, we have Ashante “Thee” Adonis. He is trying to call someone, but they aren’t picking up. Apparently, it is someone that he wants to spend New Year’s with. Nikkita Lyons is here to ask him out, but he declines, saying if he can’t spend it with Karmen, he will spend it alone. Elsewhere, Spears approaches Dame, trying to recruit her again. Here comes Tony D’Angelo and the family. He tells Spears to leave her alone. Dame says look, finally a man who listens, and Spears says he was watching last week then Santa beat up Tony. He’s garbage, says Tony to his family.

Male Superstar of the Year is up next!
-Tony D’Angelo
-Ethan Page
-Oba Femi
-Trick Williams

We will find out after…

COMMERCIALS!

We’re back, as we see Chase walking away. Kale Dixon is here, asking when the next semester is starting, Chase says don’t you know, son, Chase U is dead.

Vic runs down the card for next week’s New Year’s Evil event in Los Angeles.

Mike Rome is in the middle of the ring with the golden ring bell to announce the winner for Male Superstar of the Year, but he is interrupted by Oba Femi. Femi has a mic with him as the fans chant OBA. Femi takes the golden ring bell from Rome. You guys and your awards, don’t you understand, it doesn’t matter who wins Superstar of the Year, this is just a prop. It’s a sham that the fans get to voice their opinion on social media. You can boo, you can cheer, you can chant OH. He is the leader, he is the ruler, he steers the ship, he is the Captain. And if you don’t believe him, tune in next week to see him become NXT Champion.

Trick Williams is out now, as Booker T sings along. Willams on the mic. You are telling these people lies. He’s been fortunate since he has been here. The people have shown him a lot of love and he appreciates it. But he knows what he has next week in the triple threat match. He has to dig deep, he has to be ruthless, he needs that Micheal Trick, that Trick James, that Trick McCready. He knows Oba has some nicknames himself, but Trick has one for him. “Ole Beatable Oba”. If he wasn’t beatable, there would be a title versus title match next week, but Femi lost the North American Title. Facts. Oba is chasing him, not the other way around. When Femi got beat at Halloween Havoc, he was off for a few weeks, He wants to know how long Femi will be off when he beats him next week.

Eddy Thrope in the ring now, he smashes the golden trophy over the head of both Femi and Williams. He holds the title up in the air, and with that, we’re done!
