In a noteworthy episode of NXT, WWE took the audacious step of infusing main roster talents into the Tuesday night showdown, strategically aligning it against AEW Dynamite Title Tuesday. Not merely offering a parade of familiar faces, the episode unspooled a tapestry of compelling narratives and welcomed back a WWE legend to the black and gold brand.
The episode launched with an enthralling monologue from Cody Rhodes, who not only unfolded the relaunch of the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic and Men's NXT Breakout Tournament but also unveiled himself as the exceptional guest general manager for the evening.
NXT Champion Ilja Dragunov curtailed this smoothly orchestrated announcement. Following mutual commendations between Rhodes and Dragunov, their moment was eclipsed by the entrance of Judgment Day's Dominik Mysterio and Rhea Ripley.
As the narrative uncoiled, a match was set pitting the NXT Champion against the NXT North American Champion, with LA Knight presiding as special guest referee.
Tracking Tactical Interference
In a serpentine twist, leading roster players Finn Balor and JD McDonagh sought to skew the match in Mysterio's favour, only to be adeptly deterred by LA Knight.
A tactical intervention by Trick Williams neutralized Rhea Ripley, paving the way for Dragunov to secure victory with his signature Torpedo Moskau. The magnetism of John Cena permeated the arena as he cut a promo before the main event, only to be counteracted by Bron Breakker.
After an electrifying exchange and a near miss of Cena's Attitude Adjustment on Breakker, tensions simmered and shifted to the main event. A tumultuous conflict unfolded with Cena in Carmelo Hayes' corner and Paul Heyman accompanying Breakker.
Despite a disruptive onslaught from The Bloodline's Solo Sikoa against Cena, Hayes won over Breakker via his Nothing But Net. Interwoven with this high-octane drama, Shotzi declared her host role at Halloween Havoc alongside Scarlett amidst a tangle with Kiana James.
At the same time, Raw's Tegan Nox staked her claim in a future match with Lyra Valkyria. Jade Cargill teased her brand allegiance, escorted into the WWE Performance Center by Shawn Michaels. SmackDown's Butch and Ridge Holland, allied with Tyler Bate, triumphed over Gallus in a compelling Pub Rules Match. A night rampant with tales of triumph, tension, and compelling futures.
