Full results for NXT 2.0 for 9 August 2022.
Nikkita Lyons defeats Kiana James by pin.
Wes Lee defeats Trick Williams in a Rounds Match, 2 rounds to 1 round.
Arianna Grace defeats Thea Hail by pin.
Apollo Crews defeats Roderick Strong by pin.
Pretty Deadly defeats Edris Enofe and Malik Blade by pin.
Zoey Stark defeats Cora Jade by pin.

Perez gets in the ring after the match and tries to hit Jade with the weapon. She misses and chases Jade to the back. As Stark's back is turned, Mandy Rose gets into the ring, trying to blindside Stark. Stark recovers quickly and hits Rose with Go To Sleep. The show ends with Stark holding the NXT Women's title over her head. Is that the future after Heatwave next week?

Stark goes for a move in the ropes, but Jade evades it and hits a jumping knee. She drops Zoey with a hammerlock DDT for a two-count. She then lands the Sliced Bread for another near fall. Jade looks over to her weapon but Roxanne Perez emerges and grabs it. Zoey takes advantage with a kick and a Go To Sleep variant for the win.
Result - Zoey Stark defeats Cora Jade by pin.

Zoey hits an exploder that dumps Jade on her head. Cora is okay. Stark goes for a superkick but jade blocks it. Jade goes for Sliced Bread #2 but Stark blocks it. Stark gets another near fall as Rose gets nervous on commentary.

After control during the commercial, Jade whiffs on an elbow into the middle rope. Stark fights off an attack but ends up in a submission. Jade goes for a move in the ropes but Stark catches Jade's knee. As both try to recover, Jade grabs her cane/weapon. She misses the hit and is dropped by a German suplex. Stark hits a flurry of moves, capped off by a sliding kick for another two-count.

What a move!#WWENXT @ZoeyStarkWWE pic.twitter.com/3zNg9ADqT1

Jade comes out in all black so that you know she is a heel. Stark nearly gets the win with three pin attempts until Jade seeks safety in the ropes. Jade stomps Stark a few times before Stark regains control with another pin attempt. Zoey hits a spinning senton off the top rope for another near fall. Cora fights back with a well-placed knee.

A vignette for Gigi Dolin and Jacy Jayne airs where they get some individual personality traits. Jayne likes Rock music while Dolin "thrives" when she does things her own way. They're still a part of Toxic Attraction, but it was interesting to see the two other members of TA separate from Mandy Rose. Speaking of Rose, she joins Wade and Vic at the announce table.

After the match, Lash Legend blindsides Fallon Henley with a pump kick. She leaves and celebrates with Pretty Deadly. Backstage, Cameron Grimes is leaving the building again, but Javier Bernal says to watch out this time. Grimes heads over to confront Javier, but security guy Hank tells Grimes that he doesn't need to do that. As Grimes walks away, Joe Gacy shows up to be creepy.

Blade and Enofe work on Elton Prince early on, utilizing quick tags and fast-paced moves. Prince finally makes the tag to Kit Kat Wilson. Wilson and Prince mock Briggs and Jensen by doing the rollout of the ring followed by a punch. They pose but Jensen and Briggs come out. It allows Blade to make the tag to Enofe. He hits a dropkick, a facebuster, and an elbow off the top rope. Prince rolls out of the ring but Blade hits him with an impressive tope con giro. Wilson gets a chair and tries to use it, but Jensen gets on the apron to grab it. Wilson moves out of the way as Enofre runs into the chair shot. It allows Pretty Deadly to hit their finisher for the win.
Result - Pretty Deadly defeats Edris Enofe and Malik Blade by pin.

"Next week... you beat me... I'm gone." - @EscobarWWE #WWENXT #NXTHeatwave @TonyDangeloWWE pic.twitter.com/xOlLMshJih

Tony says that Santos still works for him and that he called this meeting to get "Escobar's head back on straight." As I predicted, Escobar says that D'Angelo is only the Don of NXT because he sent Ciampa out of NXT. He proposes that he leaves NXT if he loses. If Tony D wins, Santos is gone and the rest of Legado remains under his control. D'Angelo says it'll be a street fight next week at Heatwave.

Santos and Tony D should have a "Loser Leaves NXT" match at Heatwave. Santos is ready for main roster.

What a match! What a win for @WWEApollo!#WWENXT pic.twitter.com/i7f4JnW8u8

We get a third segment of Lash Legend talking the ears off of Malik Blade and Edris Enofe. Edris finally cuts her off and simply says that 'you lost'. She gets all miffed that he interrupted her. That brings over Pretty Deadly, who tell Enofe and Blade that you should never interrupt a woman when she's talking. Yeah, great advice. They have a match later tonight.

Roddy runs at Apollo but Apollo picks him up and hits him with a modified chokeslam/pancake for the win.
Result - Apollo Crews defeats Roderick Strong by pin.

Apollo goes for his powerbomb but Roddy counters it. He hits a few knees before heading onto the ring apron. Roddy drops Crews on the apron back-first before throwing him back into the ring for another two-count. Strong then puts Apollo in the Stronghold submission but Crews kicks Strong out of the ring when Roddy tries to reverse it. Crews goes for a Gorilla Press slam but Roddy hits a backbreaker. Apollo then hits a gutbuster on Roddy.

Crews hits a suplex to get in control of the match. He goes to the top but Roddy stops him from doing anything. Crews battles back with a splash in the corner and a blockbuster off the top for two. Apollo then goes for 3 German suplexes but Roddy gets out before the third one. He gets another near fall off a pancake.

Diamond Mine doesn't accompany Roddy out to the ring like he wasn't there last week. Strong and Crews exchange moves until Roddy chops Crews like he's Gunther handing out chops. Wade and Vic try to argue about the issues within Diamond Mine. Vic says that Julius Creed says that everyone in the group is equal, but he's acted like the leader more times than I can remember. Strong started the group, so his actions make sense. Creed is a young human, so he probably thinks he is owed something.

Before the next match, Solo Sikoa is in the trainer's room. He has a sprained PCL and will "be out" 4-6 weeks. Cameron Grimes comes up to him and congratulates him on his win last week. Sikoa then says he wants the winner of Vinci/Hayes because he hasn't already lost three matches for the North American title. Solo says he needs "to win it for guys like us." I guess he means good guys because there isn't much similar between him and Grimes. After that comment, Grimes kind of looks confused because Solo is from a wrestling dynasty and he isn't.

There have also been two quick segments of Lash Legend talking the ears off of both Malik Blade and later Edris Enofe.

Grace jumps on Hail's back but Hail drops back and plants Grace. Hail hits some kicks and a dropkick. She then hits a standing moonsault for a near fall. Grace tries to deck Hail in the face, but Hail instead lands a strike. Grace then kicks Hail before hitting Wasteland (firewoman's carry into a slam) for the win.
Result - Arianna Grace defeats Thea Hail by pin.

Grace overpowers Hail early on and rubs her face in the mat. She then locks Hail in an arm lock.

McDonagh says Bron trains like a caveman while he trains in isolation. We get a brief shot of JD entering a chamber that is -153 degrees farenheit. Yeah, it's not that cold in there.

Hayes finally accepts the challenge in a roundabout way. Vinci tries to attack Hayes, and the two just miss hitting the other with a move. It's broken up by refs. A promo package for McDonagh vs. Breakker airs after the match.

Hayes is still in the ring after Williams lost. He blabs about how he beat Nathan Frazer last week. Frazer's music hits, but Vinci gets in the ring behind Hayes. Vinci says Frazer took his spot last week, but in the meantime, why not open the challenge up for Heatwave next week? Melo is flustered.

Down goes Williams! Down goes Williams!#WWENXT @WesLee_WWE @_trickwilliams pic.twitter.com/1VJa0INDoW

We then go backstage to see Andre Chase talking to Arianna Grace. Apparently, Thea Hail and Bodhi Hayward were playing "catch" in the "quad" at Chase U and Hail threw the ball into Grace's face. She wants to sue Chase U but it leads to a match for tonight. Grace storms out as Hail celebrates having her first official match for NXT. She shakes Chase's hand so hard that he falls back. It was pretty funny.

Trick hits a pop-up punch for a two-count. He adds a few moves including a suplex for another near fall. Willy hits a spinning neck breaker for two. Williams looks confused as he can't put Lee away. He misses a spinning kick in the ropes, allowing Lee to land some offense. Lee hits a bulldog before putting on one of his gloves. He decks Williams and gets the second fall needed to win.
Result - Wes Lee defeats Trick Williams in a Rounds Match, 2 rounds to 1.

Lee gets a quick fall with Williams' foot in the rope, but he moves it off the rope (it wasn't supposed to be there). After the fall, Williams decks Lee with the loaded glove. Lee makes it to his feet and Williams jumps him as the fifth round starts.

Round 3 ends with nothing happening. Trick Williams is given a loaded glove by Hayes cuz they can't win without cheating for some reason. Williams keeps missing punches with the glove while Lee gets a pin attempt.

Lee immediately takes control with the gloves off. He hits several moves, capped off by a Pescado. He tries to climb back into the ring, but Carmelo Hayes grabs his leg. It allows Trick to hit a big boot for a win.

The rules are for a wrestling match, but both guys have boxing gloves on. They start with strikes with Williams getting a brief upper hand. He stops in the corner for a moment to adjust his gloves. It kind of reminds me of Brawl For All, but not a shoot fight. Williams gets Lee in the corner and Lee absorbs some punishment. Lee turns it around on Williams as the first round comes to a close. The first round ends with nothing much happens. They both takes their gloves off for round two.

There will be six three-minute rounds in the Rounds match between Wes Lee and Mouth Williams.

After the match, James blasts Lyons with her case/purse. She says "no one makes me look stupid." We then cut backstage to the Creeds and Apollo Crews watching tape. Roddy then storms in and yells at the moment. Julius stands up and asks where Roddy was last week. He says it was a test and that they passed the test. Roddy and Crews continue to argue.

Lyons fights out of the hold and lands some kicks. She then hits a Cannonball in the corner for a near fall. James rolls Lyons up but tries to hold the ropes for the win. As she stands up, Lyons hits her with a spinning kick followed by her jumping split for the win.
Result - Nikkita Lyons defeats Kiana James by pin.

The action spills outside of the ring. James sends Lyons into the steel steps leg first. She puts her opponent back in the ring and into a leg lock. It looked painful, but these stars are extremely flexible.

Lyons powers out and goes for a boot in the corner, but misses. James continues to work on the previously injured knee of Nikkita.

Lyons and Stark cut a promo about being involved in the tournament to crown new WWE Women's Tag Champs. James tries to suplex Lyons but fails. She works the arm instead.

The show starts with a recap of how Katana Chance and Kayden Carter won the NXT Women's Tag Team belts last week. That's followed by promos hyping their matches from Wes Lee/Trick Williams and Cora Jade/Zoey Stark. We also see a brief intro from Tony D. The first match pits Kiana James against Nikkita Lyons.
