‘WWE NXT’ Review (Mar 4th 2025)
Welcome to this week’s review of NXT, right here on Nerdly. Let’s get straight into it and see what went down on this week’s show!
Match #1: Sol Ruca & Zaria def. Chelsea Green & Piper Niven
The following is courtesy of wwe.com:
The young team of Sol Ruca and Zaria picked up the biggest win in their careers as they defeated Women’s United States Champion Chelsea Green and Piper Niven in tag team action. Green and Niven dominated early on, but Zaria and Ruca slowly but surely took control with the Australian powerhouse launching Niven onto Green with a huge F5. That move allowed Ruca to line up Green for an awe-inspiring Sol Snatcher that gave their team the win.
My Score: 3 out of 5
Match #2: Jaida Parker def. Kelani Jordan
The following is courtesy of wwe.com:
A raucous crowd bore witness to an incredible matchup between Kelani Jordan and Jaida Parker. The bitter rivals gave it all they had, and it was just one mistake by Jordan that cost her the match. The former Women’s North American Champion went for the win with her Split-Legged Moonsault but she missed, allowing Parker to hit Hipnotic to win the bout.
My Score: 3 out of 5
Match #3: Jordynne Grace def. Cora Jade (Referee Stoppage)
The following is courtesy of wwe.com:
Jordynne Grace and Cora Jade went toe-to-toe, but unfortunately Jade suffered an injury which forced the referee to end the bout early.
My Score: 2.5 out of 5
Match #4: Trick Williams def. Kale Dixon
The following is courtesy of wwe.com:
Trick Williams sent a statement to Eddy Thorpe by knocking Kale Dixon out in just seconds with a Trick Shot.
My Score: 0 out of 5
Match #5: NXT North American Championship – Shawn Spears def. Tony D’Angelo
The following is courtesy of wwe.com:
NXT has a new North American Champion as Shawn Spears defeated Tony D’Angelo to win the title. The warring factions reached a boiling point as Channing ‘Stacks’ Lorenzo, Adriana Rizzo and Luca Crusifino neutralized Niko Vance, Izzi Dame and Brooks Jensen, but Stacks accidentally hit The Don, further injuring the champion’s back. D’Angelo fought admirably, but his back gave out during a Spinebuster which allowed Spears to roll him up and become the new champion.
My Score: 3 out of 5
Final Verdict: 3/5
Apart from the squash match, this week’s NXT delivered solid action across the board. Matches that meant something and matches that leaned into the build to the forthcoming PLE, Roadblock. Of course, the big news was Cora Jade apparently suffered an injury during her match against Jordynn Grace – which is incredibly unfortunate given she’s in the middle of a push on NXT and was due to appear in a title match on TNA’s next PPV. I don’t get Spears getting the NXT title though…
