GRADE FOR WWE NXT FOR MAY 27TH, 2025: B.
It feels like starting and ending the show with two shocking title changes was for the sake of shock value. Page at least won it rather cleanly since they were given slack to settle the feud. However, he's already got four people who could beat him for the title already on his back. Vaquer is way too over to do this right now, so it could prove to be a big mistake, especially if Jacy and Page lose the title in their first defense. Trick winning was one thing, but two more so close is a bad look. The Santana/Trick stuff was good, as was the Paxley/Sol/Zaria.

Vaquer had people coming at her from all angles.

Vaquer hits a suplex and the Devil's Kiss back in the ring to everyone's delight. The crowd chants for Booker T after the move. Vaquer has Jacy locked in an armbar in the ropes. Nyx distracts the ref, and Fallon hits Vaquer with a 619 kick. Jacy lands a big, spinning forearm to become the new NXT Women's Champion!!!!!
RESULT: JACY JAYNE defeats Stephanie Vaquer by pin.

GRADE: B.
There was A LOT going on here with so many outside factors playing into the finish. Fatal Influence likely faked their dissension issues to get one over on the champ, and it worked. Having so many shock title changes so soon, however, is an issue, especially with Vaquer, who is one of the most over people in all of WWE.

The action heads back into the ring after slamming her into the steel steps. Vaquer hits a variant of the Fairytale Ending/Facebuster, but Fallon distracts her by getting on the apron. Vaquer then superkicks Jacy into Falon, and they argue. Nyx tries to get them to regroup, but they push her down. Vaquer lands a crossbody off the top on Fallon and Jacy.

Jacy whiffs on a Cannonball, allowing La Primera to hit a Dragon Screw Leg Whip that sends Jacy out of the ring. Vaquer pursues, but is tripped by Jacy. She recovers and dumps Jacy face-first onto the ring apron.

Jacy kicks Vaquer in the face before mounting her and landing punches. She hits a Sling Blade, but is blasted with two tilt-a-whirl backbreakers. Both women go for a facebuster to even the playing field. Vaquer hits Meteora in the corner for a close call. She goes for the SVB, but Jacy counters out and hits a big knee to the champs' face. She kicks out at two.

Is the Culling looking to exploit an emotional Tatum Paxley for their own gains??

Jacy hits a suplex for a two-count. Vaquer recovers quickly and sets up for a move, but Dalys and Chik Tormenta show up on the apron to distract her. Lola Vice comes out and fights them to the back. Vaquer recovers quickly, hitting a springboard crossbody for a near fall.

Vaquer sets up for the Devil's Kiss, but Jacy breaks out of it. Jacy hits a Senton as Graves says that Booker seems "conflicted" with who to root for.

It's main event time as Jacy Jayne challenges Stephanie Vaquer for the NXT Women's Title. Vaquer rushes the ring and takes Jacy down after the slap over the weekend.

Zaria and Sol Ruca try to console Tatum Paxley backstage after she lost her friends. The Culling watches on creepily behind them.

Rey Fenix is in NXT and looking for gold!

La Primera walks out to the ring for her title defense. A bunch of random women from various bands stare her down as if they have a chance. Lash Legend, Kelani Jordan, Nikkita Lyons, and others look on.

Jaida Parker sure talks herself into a lot of problems ...

Ava basks in booking the match after Stone claims she's stacking the deck against Page. Stevie Turner then brings up the good point that Sean Legacy earned a shot at the belt last week, but is getting jumped over. Ava then claims he'll get a shot at the winner from Worlds Collide.

Evans then says it won't be a triple threat, and then Rey Fenix comes out!!!! It'll be a fatal four-way at Worlds Collide between Page, Evans, Laredo Kid, and Rey Fenix.

Evans says he talked to Ava, and he'll get a title shot at Worlds Collide. He introduces the Laredo Kid, so is this just to move the title to Je'Von?

Ethan Page appears in the ring in a burgundy suit jacket with his newly won North American Championship. He is interrupted by Je'Von Evans because he has to be in proximity to titles every week.

The NQCC convenes backstage. Charlie Dempsey says they tried to prove themselves as singles wrestlers, but need to go back to the drawing board. Myles Borne isn't having it, as he has proven that he belongs on PLEs. Borne then challenges Dempsey to a match, and if he wins, Borne can leave the group. Dempsey makes it a Rounds Match because those aren't boring.

Oba Femi then comes out in the arena pulpit to say his time is limited because he could have blindsided him last week like Troy did, but he chose to stand and face him like a man.

Dante tries to knock Troy off his feet with some offense, but it's ineffective. He finally hits a DDT and a kick to send Troy to the mat. He hits a strike, but Troy shrugs it off and hits a Bossman Slam for the win.
RESULT: JASPER TROY defeats Dante Chen by pin.

GRADE: C.
It was what it was - a squash match to put over Troy. Chen got in a move or two, but this was about Jasper Troy dominating.

Nothing much happens early on until a back body drop. Troy then sends Chen out of the ring with a clothesline. He rakes Chen's eyes. Booker T tries to claim he won LFG, but the Undertaker clearly won it and has the belt to prove it.

Jasper Troy debuts next against Dante Chen. Booker T will be unbearable during this match since he coached him on LFG.

Thea Hail rushes Parker after the match, paying her back for last week's cheap shot backstage.

Pax gets a near-fall off a roll-up. She hits a face-buster and some strikes in a flurry of offense. She adds a crossbody to Jaida's gut before hitting a flippin' gkick. She hits another dropkick that sends Parker out of the ring. Jaida tosses the orange-haired doll into the ring. Paxley picks it up, and Parker hits her hip-check for the win.
RESULT - JAIDA PARKER defeats Tatum Paxley by pin

GRADE: C+.
Too short, and the commentary painted Paxley as the one at fault for Jaida sticking her nose in Paxley's business—some decent moves, but nothing special.

Paxley controls Parker early on, slamming her head into turnbuckles. Parker hits her sit-down move to the delight of the wishy-washy WWE PC crowd.

Vic Joseph says that Tatum carrying those dolls makes her a target, rather than calling Jaida a mean person for calling her names.

Jaida Parker is waiting in the ring for her match with Tatum Paxley after making fun of Paxley on last week's show. Paxley comes out with her dolls that represent Shotzi and Gigi.

Will Trick have another short title reign and drop the TNA World title to Santana on next week's NXT??

Ava walks up to Stephanie Vaquer as she prepares for her match with Jacy Jayne. She informs her that she'll be facing AAA's Dalys and Chik Tormenta at Worlds Collide, but needs to find a partner. Lola Vice predictably volunteers since she's been jockeying for a title shot.

Santana extends his hand for a shake, and Trick looks at it and turns his back. He then tries to cheap-shot Santana, but gets tossed out of the ring for it. Trick drops the belt, and Santana holds it up to close the segment.

Tricks says that since Santana doesn't know what it's like to be a champ, he can't call the shots. Mike says he's seen people like Trick come and go, and that he's a "pretender - a pretend fighter, a pretend rapper, and a pretend champ." Santana claims he'll take the title from Trick. Santino Marella then appears on the big screen. He congratulates Trick, but informs him that he'll be a fighting champion and that he'll face Santana next week on NXT.

Santana then comes out. The fans who just cheered for Trick then cheer for Santana. He gives Trick props for winning Sunday. Trick says Santana made a mistake by interrupting his champion. Santana says that Trick "isn't his champion" and that he won't let Trick run down TNA because they've been killing it lately.

He calls the fans out for their duplicity in cheering for everyone. Trick calls himself the "line" between TNA and NXT. He's going to go to TNA because NXT didn't appreciate him. Hollywood Trick says he's turning his back on the fans since they turned their backs on him, and he's going to TNA to make some changes. It's gonna now be called "TrickNA" and the fickle fans cheer.

The crowd chants "TrickNA" because heel/face dynamics don't exist.

Up next is new TNA World Champion Trick Williams. He's going to be unbearable now.

Tony D meets with Luca Crusifino. He says that he's mad Luca just showed up at Battleground and didn't do anything or reach out. He says Stacks just let him out, and reaching out would have put everyone at risk. The Don is mad because he "cost him the match," but he's not sure who to trust now. Luca says The Don can trust him.

Corey Graves revels in their misfortunes.

We then cut to Mr. Chase telling Kale and Uriah not to be so impulsive and when to take risks and when to fall back. They take it the wrong way and ask Ava for a match next week. They'll face DarkState next week in a six-man match, and Chase isn't exactly happy.

Wes Lee cuts a promo alongside his new minions.

Booker T was impressed with both Tavion Heights AND Santana, saying they passed the eyeball test during their hard-hitting match.
