Tatum Paxley Gets Revenge, Defeats Izzi Dame at NXT New Year’s Evil

Tatum Paxley got revenge on her former friend, defeating Izzi Dame in their match at NXT New Year’s Evil. Paxley defeated Dame in the first match on Tuesday’s show. The back and forth bout saw Paxley survive Dame’s power offense and deliver a Pele Kick late in the match. Paxley went up top for a 450 and then hit the Psycho Trap for the victory.

Paxley began feuding with Dame and The Culling when they cost Paxley the NXT Women’s Championship at NXT Gold Rush night one. Dame picked up the win in the first match between them at NXT Deadline thanks to help from Shawn Spears and Niko Vance. Spears and Vance were not at ringside for tonight’s show.
