Tatum Paxley's First Women's Title Match Ends In Disastrous DQ During 10/28 NXT

Tatum Paxley promised that things will get crazy when she is NXT Women’s Champion, and that was very true. She called her own shot this week, and she paid for it.

The October 28 episode of NXT brought a ton of fallout after Halloween Havoc. Jacy Jayne is no longer the NXT Women’s Champion, and she’s not happy about it.

Tatum Paxley just won the NXT Women’s Title at Halloween Havoc from Jacy Jayne. However, she appeared during the first half of NXT and announced that she will defend her title tonight.

Since NXT didn’t have a spin the wheel and make the deal situation at Halloween Havoc, as usual, Tatum Paxley made up her own wheel of challengers. She spun the wheel, and it landed on Lola Vice.

Izzi Dame noticed that her name wasn’t on the wheel. She also called attention to this, and Paxley explained that they would never battle for the title.

Midway through the match, Fatal Influence showed up to take out Izzi Dame on the outside of the ring. Then Lainey Reid, Fallon Henley, and Jacy Jayne surrounded the ring. Soon, the invading stable got in, and the match was declared a DQ.

After that, Lola Vice took a bump into the turnbuckle and Tatum Paxley took a severe beatdown in the center of the ring. This including a Rolling Encore from Jacy Jayne to lay out the new NXT Women’s Champion in the middle of the ring as Fatal Influence stood tall.

Kendal Grey Pulls Off Upset Win To Retain EVOLVE Women's Title During 10/28 WWE NXT

WWE has several brands at this point, and EVOLVE is certainly picking up steam. The Women’s Title from that extension of the company took the spotlight during NXT this week, and they did not disappoint.

The October 28 episode of NXT brought a ton of fallout after Halloween Havoc. The card included some important matches, including an EVOLVE Women’s Title match.

During this week’s episode of NXT, the WWE Women’s Evolve Championship match saw Kendal Grey defend her title against Lash Legend. This was a match worth watching, because although Grey just won the title, Legend has a ton of potential.

Kendal Grey had Wren Sinclair in her corner, as the two have started an interesting pairing in recent weeks. Once the match got started, Lash Legend was able to showcase her power and skill to take an early advantage.

Although Kendal Grey took abuse from Lash Legend throughout the entire commercial break, she was still able to kick out of everything that her challenger handed her.

Kendal Grey was able to fight back as she hit a slingshot double stomp on Lash Legend, but she rolled out of the ring. The two fought at ringside, where Grey was able to nail a couple big moves, including a DDT on the outside. Wren Sinclair tried to fire Grey up as she climbed the top rope, but Lash Legend caught her and sent the champion into the ropes.

Suddenly, Kendal Grey nailed her Shades of Grey finisher and got the win. This was an upset win for many fans, and Grey was able to retain in the middle of the ring with Wren Sinclair.

As of this writing, there have been two titleholders for the EVOLVE Women’s Championship. The first champion, Kali Armstrong, won the title on April 25, 2025, at Evolve in Orlando by defeating Wendy Choo, Kendal Grey, and Kylie Rae in a fatal four-way elimination match. Then Kendal Grey won the title by defeating Armstrong at Evolve: Succession on September 23. We will have to see what is next for her, but she is certainly off to a strong start.

Sol Ruca Vacates WWE Speed Women’s Title Due To Injury During 10/28 NXT

Sol Ruca Vacates WWE Speed Women's Title Due To Injury During 10/28 NXT

WWE’s NXT brand is full of drama. Now another title has been vacated, and that means they need to figure out a new champion.

The October 28 episode of NXT brought a ton of fallout after Halloween Havoc. They had a lot to get to, and that included dealing with the WWE Women’s Speed Title.

Right after Jasper Troy beat Axiom in the finals of the WWE Speed tournament to figure out who will face El Grande Americano for his WWE Speed Title on November 11, they handled the women’s side of the situation.

The WWE Speed Women’s Champion was Sol Ruca, but she was injured. After ZARIA lost the NXT North American Title to Blake Monroe at Halloween Havoc, as she stood in Ruca’s place, the decision was made to vacate the title.

It appeared that ZARIA wasn’t thrilled about the idea of not getting to defend Sol Ruca’s second title. After all, she dropped the ball and lost the NXT Women’s North American Title already. We will keep a close eye on this situation to see how the pair may split because of this.

With tension growing, and Sol Ruca’s return to the ring not certain, this is very interesting. A new WWE Speed Women’s Tournament will kick off very soon to determine a new champion.

What’s your take on Sol Ruca vacating the WWE Speed Women’s Title? Do you think she should have given ZARIA another chance? Let us know what you think in the comments section!

IC Title #1 Contender Match Ends In ‘Mugging’ During 10/27 WWE RAW

IC Title #1 Contender Match Ends In Mugging During 10/27 WWE RAW

Dominik Mysterio has tried hard to hang onto his WWE IC Title, but he will have quite a challenge on Saturday night.

WWE RAW on October 27, 2025 went down at the Honda Center in Anaheim, California. This episode included a lot of great moments, including Dominik Mysterio learning who he will face next for one of his treasured titles.

The No. 1 Contender’s Match for the Intercontinental Title featured Rusev vs. Penta. Dominik Mysterio remained the champion, drawing plenty of challengers. Rusev and Penta both gave everything in the ring to earn the next title shot at Saturday Night’s Main event against Dirty Dom.

This match kicked off the show, right after Jey Uso and CM Punk had a promo battle. Fans were very much behind Penta the entire time, but the Bulgarian Brute wasn’t going to lay down without a fight. Dominik Mysterio wasn’t happy about this match, and he tried to complain to his Judgment Day brothers backstage, but they weren’t very sympathetic since they lost their tag team titles last week to AJ Styles and Dragon Lee in a match that Dom caused.

Rusev and Penta fought through a commercial break, and by the time we got back, Penta was a ragdoll in Rusev’s arms. The Bulgarian was also trying to undo Penta’s legendary mask. Penta was able to fight back and keep himself from getting unmasked. Through it all, Penta was able to come back after a Machka Kick.

Rusev was also able to kick out of a Pentadriver, which brought fans to their feet. Suddenly, the two members of El Grande Americanos jumped both of them in the middle of the ring. El Grande Americano himself stood and watched it all go down. This ended a thrilling #1 contender match that turned into a mugging as Penta and Rusev were dismantled by the interference. The term “mugging” was also used on commentary.

Then Rusev got back in the ring, and he took everyone out, all three members of the stable took a shot as Penta got in the ring to hit El Grande Americano. The match was called off, leaving many to wonder what the booking situation will look like at Saturday Night’s Main Event.

Dominik Mysterio is also AAA Mega Champion. Only time will tell how long he remains a double champion, but this is certainly an interesting time to be Rey Mysterio’s son. Saturday Night’s Main Event will go down this weekend, on November 1 in Salt Lake City, Utah.

Legal Analysis Says WWE Superstars' Independent Contractor Status May Implode If Challenged In Court

There is no shortage of controversy when it comes to WWE’s contracts.

WWE classifies its talent as independent contractors, but that classification may not hold up under legal scrutiny. … Read more

Liv Morgan Reveals Unseen Footage of Medics Popping Her Shoulder Back Into Place After Injury

Liv Morgan Reveals Unseen Footage of Medics Popping Her Shoulder Back Into Place After Injury

WWE has a few Superstars who are awaiting their returns to the ring, but some are also able to celebrate milestones during that time. Liv Morgan may be out of action, but she has not been forgotten by a long shot.

Liv Morgan posted on social media to reveal a never before seen video of herself in the trainer’s room. She was having her shoulder worked on, which was, sadly, a common practice for her.

The caption she picked told the whole reason behind this post. It was a celebration of her 11-year anniversary with WWE. Of course, she has seen a fair amount of injuries during that time.

“Eleven years later and ur still the one I love … ❤️‍🔥 Happy anniversary @WWE.”

Liv Morgan has dealt with multiple shoulder injuries during her WWE career. In June 2025, she suffered a dislocated and separated shoulder during a match against Kairi Sane on WWE RAW. The injury required surgery and has kept her out of action since. Her recovery is ongoing, with reports suggesting that her return will go down in 2026. This followed a similar shoulder injury in 2023 during a match with Rhea Ripley. That injury involved a labrum tear, also required surgery, and led to a six-month absence.

Liv Morgan is no stranger to the trainers’ room, and even though she has a few months to go until her return timeline is in the picture, fans can’t wait to see her again. It’s a fair guess to say that Morgan can’t wait to get back into the squared circle, either.

The Judgment Day has moved on, with Roxanne Perez taking Liv Morgan’s spot in the group. That being said, the stable still keeps a photo of Morgan around their Clubhouse. We will have to see how her return will influence the group, because she may have some unfinished business with Roxanne Perez.

DarkState Wins WWE NXT Tag Team Titles In Broken Rules Match At Halloween Havoc

You never know what NXT will bring to the table during their premium live events. Halloween Havoc’s Broken Rules Match certainly delivered the action.

NXT Halloween Havoc went down tonight at the Findlay Toyota Center in Prescott Valley, Arizona. DarkState showed up wanting another run with the titles, and that’s what they got.

At NXT vs. TNA Showdown, The Hardy Boyz beat DarkState to win the NXT Tag Team Titles and keep the TNA Tag Team Titles. A rematch was set for Halloween Havoc, but DarkState’s representatives were not confirmed. DarkState later attacked The Hardys, who then announced the match would be under Broken Rules. This match went down after Tatum Paxley’s shocking NXT Women’s Title win.

It was anyone’s guess what the Broken Rules match would entail. After all, we’ve seen some interesting cinematic classic with the Hardys over the years. As expected, The Broken Hardys received an amazing reception from the fans as TNA and NXT Tag Team Champions, even though only the NXT Titles were on the line during this match.

This match saw all four members of DarkState dismantling the Hardys. Eventually, Jeff and Matt maintained control, and they set up specially painted tables by Brother Nero. Then Matt Hardy climbed up the ladder as Jeff scaled the turnbuckle. Then both Hardys pulled off a legdrop and Swanton Bomb respectivelly to put DarkState through those tables.

Dion Lennox and Osiris were the only two DarkState members left in the match after that. The DarkState members beat the Hardys down with weapons and then set a ladder up in the corner before driving Matt into it. DarkState then nailed a 3D for a near fall. Then the Hardys started ramping up their offense with kendo stick shots, but Dion Lennox fought them both off at ringside. Osiris speared Jeff Hardy through the timekeeper’s area as fans chanted “holy sh*t!”

Matt was able to come back with a Twist of Fate on Osiris, and then Jeff nailed a Swanton Bomb for a near fall. Then Matt hit a Plot Twist on Lennox for another two count. Matt set up two tables at ringside and placed the ladder next to them. Then Osiris was placed on the table before Jeff Hardy climbed up before he went for a Senton Bomb, but Osiris moved, and he went crashing through on his own.

Eventually, DarkState nailed a Doomsday Device through a table on Jeff Hardy as Matt Hardy was hung up in the tree of woe in the corner. Then they pinned Jeff to win the NXT Tag Team Titles once again.

Tatum Paxley Wins WWE NXT Women's Title At Halloween Havoc 2025

NXT has a new women’s champion, and this could usher in a very strange time for the division.

NXT Halloween Havoc went down tonight at the Findlay Toyota Center in Prescott Valley, Arizona. Jacy Jayne defended the NXT Women’s Title, and this was quite an interesting contest.

At NXT vs. TNA Showdown, Ava announced a battle royal for the next NXT episode to decide the challenger for Jacy Jayne’s title at Halloween Havoc. Tatum Paxley won the match, which also included TNA talent.

This match went down just after Blake Monroe won the NXT Women’s North American Title. The Culling made their way to the ring in all white, except for Paxley, who wore white with bloody marks all over her ring gear. Fatal Attraction also made their way to the ring as a full unit, and they looked determined to keep the champion in their faction.

The match spilled to ringside after they got started. Then Jacy Jayne set Tatum Paxley up for a teeter-totter move that sent the challenger under the ring, smashing her face against the steel reinforcements. Once they returned to the ring, Jacy continued her assault, and so did her Fatal Attraction stable mates as the referee’s back was turned.

Fans chanted “you both suck” as the match continued, but Booker T couldn’t make out what the crowd was saying. For some reason, he thought they were chanting “double champ,” but Vic Joseph told Booker that he needed to get his ears checked.

Jacy Jayne nailed a neckbreaker from the top rope for a pin, but Shawn Spears put Tatum Paxley’s foot on the ropes. They Lainey Reid jumped on both of them with a top rope splash. Izzi Dame took out Reid, but then Fallon Henley attacked her. Then the referee threw everyone out of the ringside area. Jacy Jayne didn’t like the idea of being left alone.

The match continued with just the two competitors in the ring after that. Jayne countered a Cemetery Drive from Tatum, and then she nailed a kick to the head, but she missed the cannonball in the corner. Tatum Paxley nailed a Rolling Encore, and then she climbed up to the top for a 450 Splash for a near fall.

Fans chanted “fight forever” as they continued. Then The Culling started to come back to the ring, as the referee was distracted, Izzi Dame jumped in the ring. Jacy nailed her with the title. Then Paxley hit Jacy with a Cemetery Drive to win the NXT Women’s Title.

What’s your take on Jacy Jayne’s run as NXT Women’s Champion? Do you miss seeing her with two title belts? Let us know what you think in the comments section!
