WWE released footage of the much-anticipated clash between Omos and Oba Femi that took place at an NXT live event in Cleveland.

The two behemoths had come face-to-face at a previous live event in Detroit when the former NXT Champion was attacked by Darkstate after his match against Je’Von Evans, where The Nigerian Giant helped Femi ward off the ambush. The Ruler of NXT shook hands with Omos, and while initially it seemed that they both were on the same page, the 7’3″ specimen clotheslined the champ, taking him out in the middle of the ring.

Femi then issued the challenge to The Nigerian Giant, who recently made his return to World Wrestling Entertainment, stating that there could be only one African giant in the company, and that was The Ruler.

Omos And Oba Femi Have A Massive Brawl At WWE NXT Live Event

As was expected, the bout broke down quickly with the two behemoths getting into a massive brawl, with the match being declared a no-contest as the NXT locker room poured out to separate the two.

Not one to be held back, Femi broke free and charged and got his payback when he clotheslined Omos out of the ring. Footage of the events was released by NXT on their X/Twitter account:

The 27-year-old recently lost the NXT Championship to Ricky Saints at No Mercy. However, it seems he already has his next bout lined up. Given the hype generated around their encounter, there could be a possibility that this feud moves from live events to NXT TV.

Femi seemingly also has another major bout lined up on the main roster as well, if he is moved up there. Last month, he came face-to-face with Rusev during a Six-Man Tag Team match at a live event.

While this bout never made it to TV, there could also be a possibility of this feud happening when The Bulgarian Brute is done with his rivalry with Dominik Mysterio, though there is no official word on the same.

After interacting at a WWE NXT house show in Detroit on Friday night, Omos and Oba Femi are set to wrestle tonight in Cleveland.

The news was announced via WWE NXT social media accounts on Saturday.

“After an interaction last night at #NXTDetroit, @Obaofwwe has challenged @TheGiantOmosto a match TONIGHT at #NXTCleveland!

On Fridayâ€s show, Omos confronted Femi and the two had a brief stare down before Omos hit Femi with a clothesline. Femi then challenged Omos to a match in a video posted to social media on Saturday.

“This is a message from the ruler directly to the giant Omos. You came here to Detroit city under the guise of being an ally of the ruler. When I least expected it, you turned on me and you hit me when I wasn’t looking. Omos, you know what that tells me? That tells me that that you think you can come down from your throne, from your pedestal, and come here to NXT and try to bully people. You can’t bully anybody, especially not the ruler.”

“There can only be one Nigerian giant. There can only be one giant of Africa. There can only be one dominant force and his name is not Omos, his name is Oba Femi!”

Both Omos and Femi are from Lagos, Nigeria. Femi moved to the United States in 2017 after being offered a track and field scholarship by the University of Tennessee. Omos moved to the United States alone at the age of 15, attending Atlantic Shores Christian School and later playing basketball for the University of South Florida.

Omos returned to the ring on Thursday, defeating Lexis King at an NXT house show in Columbus. It was his first match since AAA TripleMania XXXIII, where he won the Bardahl Cup battle royal.

Sol Ruca, Jacy Jayne, and Trick Williams are also advertised for tonight’s NXT house show in Cleveland.

Two monsters face to face.

NXT presented its latest Live Event from the Masonic Temple in Detroit, Michigan this Friday night. The show featured names such as Trick Williams, Ricky Saints and MCMG in action.

One of the matches on the card saw Oba Femi taking on Jeâ€Von Evans. Femi picked up the victory over the high-flying star. He couldn’t celebrate for long, however, as DarkState attacked the former NXT Champion.

It was Omos who made the save for Oba. After sending DarkState packing, the Nigerian Giant came face-to-face with Oba Femi in a surreal moment. The segment ended with Omos laying out the development star:

The former bodyguard of AJ Styles had last wrestled on WWE TV in April last year. While he had made appearances for NOAH and AAA, Omos had not competed under the WWE banner since then.

He finally made his in-ring return for the company during a similar Live Event on Thursday which also featured an unfortunate injury to a current champion.

It’s unknown what the company is planning for the Nigerian star. His live event return suggests that we might see him back on TV soon. If this latest interaction is any indication, Omos might be getting involved in a big feud upon his comeback.

This past Saturday at NXT No Mercy, Ricky Saints put an end to Oba Femi’s 263-day NXT Championship reign in the main event of the show, becoming the 34th star to win the title in the history of the brand. Since losing the championship, many fans have questioned if Femi could be main roster bound in the near future, but according to ECW legend Tommy Dreamer, it’s still too soon to call up the 27-year-old.

Speaking on “Busted Open Radio,” Dreamer explained that he questions Femi’s ability to perform at the main roster level at the moment, stating that he wishes WWE had more live events so he could be better prepared.

“I wish they had live events. I think he had a great match with Ricky Saints and there’s a big difference when you start to go as we always say ‘deep in the water,’ and deep in the water is time. When you start hitting that past 10 minutes or then into 15 where you’re able to pull those moments out and if you’re looking at a lot of segments on both ‘Raw’ and ‘SmackDown’ and they’re wrestling in commercial break. You have to really look at like hey can you go at that high level? And continue to keep up that pace, that’s a key thing. I would say question mark right now … tempted? Yes. Would I? No.”

Since No Mercy, there’s been an update regarding Femi’s status going forward, with the “Wrestling Observer Newsletter’s” Dave Meltzer reporting that “The Ruler” is expected to remain with “WWE NXT” for the time being instead of heading to the main roster.

Oba Femi is no longer the WWE NXT Champion, but what does the future hold for ‘The Ruler’ of the silver brand? Femi lost the gold to Ricky Saints at WWE NXT No Mercy, ending a run on top that began in January of this year.

Despite this loss, fans shouldn’t expect Femi to be moved to the main roster yet. In the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer shared that “Femi is still in the plans for NXT going forward.” In addition to his NXT title reign, Femi holds the record of the longest reigning WWE NXT North American Champion.

Meltzer acknowledged that WWE does sometimes ‘swerve’ people, and later shared that “there is no such thing as a 100 percent no.†For now, though, all signs point to Femi remaining as part of WWE NXT until the right time for a call-up.

Femi’s reign saw him retain against the likes of Trick Williams, Je’Von Evans, Myles Borne, Ridge Holland, Wes Lee, Austin Theory, Grayson Waller, and others in NXT. Going further, Femi retained the gold against TNA Wrestling’s Moose during NXT Roadblock in March 2025.

With two dominant title reigns to his name, many expect big things for Oba Femi once he joins the main roster. For now though, Femi will stay with WWE NXT, likely hungry for a rematch with Ricky Saints.

Ricky Saints celebrates with the NXT Championship

WWE

Ricky Saints stopped Oba Femi to win the NXT Championship at NXT No Mercy, ending the reign of “The Ruler” after 264 days and his 11th defense.Â

Saints was challenging Femi at No Mercy after beating Josh Briggs on “WWE NXT” to earn the opportunity, and he was looking to follow in the champion’s footsteps as someone to have held the NXT and North American Championships. Femi was in action just days after a match between him and the former NXT Champion, reigning TNA World Champion Trick Williams, for both the titles ended in a no-contest on “NXT.”Â

The match itself saw the pair firing off at one another from the starting bell, with the action continuing back-and-forth for much of the early goings, each man taking their turn to get offense in. Femi sent Saints through the ropes onto the entrance ramp after a stiff forearm, with Saints beating the count and following up with a stunner and a sling blade, followed by the Samoan drop for a near-fall.Â

Saints attempted to pin the champion with roll-ups, but truly found his mark after hitting a DDT onto the announcer’s desk, followed by a Tornado DDT off of it and onto the floor. Femi had one last fight back, landing a lariat to Saints on the apron, and then delivering the powerbomb for a near-fall, but his reign ended with yet another Tornado DDT in the ring, followed by the three-count.

SPOTLIGHTED PODCAST ALERT (YOUR ARTICLE BEGINS A FEW INCHES DOWN)…

NXT NO MERCY RESULTS
SEPTEMBER 27, 2025
FT. LAUDERDALE, FLA. AT THE WAR MEMORIAL AUDITORIUM

STREAMED LIVE ON PEACOCK (U.S.) & NETFLIX (Intâ€ll)

REPORT BY PAUL WEIGLE, PWTORCH CONTRIBUTOR

Commentators: Vic Joseph, Booker T

Ring Announcer: Mike Rome

PRESHOW HIGHLIGHTS

-Sam Roberts and Megan Morant hosted.  They previewed each match, discussing the strengths and weaknesses of each competitor.

-The conclusion of the Oba Femi vs Trick Williams match from last weekâ€s NXT, which had no finish when a dozen TNA wrestlers rushed the ring and brawled with NXT wrestlers.

-Footage of TNA Victory Road where Kelani Jordan defeating Lei Ying Lee to win the TNA Knockouts Championship after it was vacated by Ash by Elegance.

-Video recapping the history of the feud between Blake Monroe and Jordynne Grace.

-Tavion Heights interviewed by Blake Howard.  Heights discussed his love of the roar of the crowd, and how he missed it when competing at the Olympics in Tokyo.  Heights said he is the right person to defeat Ethan Page for the North American Championship.  He shared his love of fishing, traveling with his wife, and buying Pokemon Cards “Iâ€m a grown man, and I buy what I want with my grown man money.â€Â  Heights vowed to become North American Champion.

-Video about Ricky Saints.  He returns to the site of his childhood home in New Orleans, although the home itself was swept away in a hurricane.  Pics of Saints as a young wrestling fan were showed, and he expressed that his passion and stubbornness has been the secret to his success.  His motivation is survival and keeping himself from ever going back to his former circumstances, which seemed to be poverty and obscurity.  Saints was shown talking with people on the streets in New Orleans about his upcoming title match.  He pledged to defeat Oba Femi, in order to prove himself to his family and those who have struggled like he has.

Weigleâ€s analysis: This was a great video, which did more to humanize Saints and express who he is and what his mission statement is, than anything else Iâ€ve seen since he debuted in NXT.  Iâ€d like to see more of this type of video.

-Interview with Lainey Reid, which highlights her history racing horses and competing in college soccer.  She reviews her short career in NXT and discusses her prospects to win the Womenâ€s Speed Championship.

Weigleâ€s analysis:This was also good. Reid is a natural performer and came off very well in the interview, making a case for herself as a contender to beat Roca.  I can see why she is being featured on NXT after only a brief time in the business.

-Abbreviated matches from the last NXT No Mercy were shown with no introduction, including Tiffany Stratton vs. Becky Lynch, and Oba Femi vs. Tony Dâ€Angelo.

-Video of Josh Briggs.  Briggs said that he is tired of being told he was not charismatic enough to connect with the fans.  He does not care if audience likes him and he enjoys spiting the fans by his success.  He contrasted himself with Jeâ€Von Evans, who seeks the approval of the audience.

-Video revieing the rivalry of Oba Femi and Ricky Saints.  Femi reviewed his success in NXT as champion since January of this year.  Saints expressed the importance of winning the NXT title as a way of validating his career.   Highlights of their exchanges were shown.

Shawn Michaels broke news that Reid injured herself training the night before and was unable to compete tonight.  Sol Ruca will defend her Speed title against a mystery opponent.

Weigleâ€s analysis: This was a worthwhile preshow, with the exception of the excerpts from past No Mercy Matches, which seemed like filler.  Roberts and Morant work well together, and effectively hyped each match.

NXT NO MERCY

-The recently-updated “Then, Now, Together, Forever†opening brand stamp aired, narrated by Paul Levesque.

– A video was shown of Fort Lauderdale Harbor, and the outside of the War Memorial arena.  Wrestlers were shown arriving, including Lola Vice,  Fatal Influence, Jordynne Grace, Blake Monroe, Ricky Saints and Oba Femi.

– A video aired hyping No Mercy, showing clips of the performers and highlights of the build.  An abbreviated story the rivalry behind each matchup was shown in turn.  The ruthlessness and malicious intent of the wrestlers was emphasized.

(1) JEâ€VON EVANS vs. JOSH BRIGGS

Evans came out first, to a strong reaction from fans in attendance in the small arena.  Josh Briggs was greeted by a chorus of boos.  A clip was shown of Briggs attacking Evans on SmackDown the night before.

The match started with a flurry of offense by Evans, delivering kicks and punches until being picked up and tackled over the top rope by Briggs. Evans immediately started favoring his right hip.  The two brawled outside of the ring, with Evans using speed moves to counter Briggs†power.  Back in the ring Evans hit a hurricarana and dropkicking rapid succession.  Briggs once again overpowered Evans by picking him up and ramming him into the corner. Briggs delivered a bodyslam and followed up with an elbow drop.  Briggs showed a methodical pace while stomping on Evans and standing on his back.  Evans slipped off Briggâ€s shoulder and attempted a comeback, rolling up Briggs for a two count.  However, Briggs responded with two backbreakers, targeting the Evansâ€s injured hip.  Briggs threw Evans into the corner with a great deal of force, the entire ring shuddered and Evans continued to sell his hip and lower back.  Briggs continued to stomp on Evans and Irish whipped him into the corner strongly a second time.

The third time he tried to throw Evans into the corner, Evans countered and began a flurry of punches on Briggs.  Evan was able to get a momentary advantage until Briggs shoved him off the apron into the ringside barrier, further exacerbating Evans†hip injury.  “You canâ€t wrestle†chant directed at Briggs.  Briggs paused to taunt the crowd, giving Evans a chance to get off a few punches, rally, and hit a rebound back suplex on Briggs.  Evans rebounded off the ropes with clotheslines but was unable to drop Briggs until Evans hit him with a surprise superkick, then knocked him down with another clothesline.

Briggs started to beg off, and Evans took off his shirt and threw it at Briggs before hitting him with another flurry of punches, this time to great effect. Briggs collapsed into the corner, and Evans set up for a coast to coast before Briggs rolled out of the ring.  Evans leapt outside of the ring onto Briggs, then rolled him back into the ring to hit a soaring top rope frog splash, then covered for a very close 2 count.  Briggs took over again by kicking Evans in the back of the head, then hitting him with a clothesline from behind, which was good for a 2 count of his own.  Evans hit a jumping forearm and hit the ropes.

The two exchanged multiple strike soff the ropes, until Briggs floored Evans with a kick to the face.  He followed up with some power offensive moves, including flipping Evans over then delivering a knee to his face, which was good for another 2-count.  Briggs dragged Evans to the corner and climbed to the top rope, pulled evans up into the top of the turnbuckle, then tried to give a chokeslam off the top rope.  However, Evans flipped in mid air and landed on his feet, then kicked Briggs.  Briggs immediately responded with a thunderous chokeslam then went to cover Evans, who once again kicked out at 2.

Briggs charged Evans, who ducked. Briggs flipped out of the ring, then took over agin.  He threw Evans back in the ring and clotheslined him, before going for the pin.  This time Evans barely got his foot on the ropes to avert a 3-count.  Briggs was frustrated, dragged Evans by his hair into the corner while talking smack.  He then started to climb the top rope but evans grabbed his ankle, saying ‘hell no!â€Â  Evans pushed and slapped Briggs several times before hitting him with a dropkick.  He went for another move when Briggs kicked im out of the air.  Briggs delivered a chokeslam but Evans countered, delivering his cutter, and covering for a three count.

Winner: Jeâ€Von Evans in about 17 minutes

-Evans celebrated, and the announcers indicated he would turn his attention to TNAâ€s X-Division.

(Weigleâ€s Analysis: These two worked very well together Briggs hits hard, and his power moves were a great foil to Evanâ€s high-flying athleticism. The action was so fast-paced, it was hard to record.  The crowd was into this one, boing Briggs and cheering Evans as appropriate. A great effort by both men.)

(2) SOL RUCA vs. JAIDA PARKER – NXT Womenâ€s Speed Title Match

Shawn Michaels had previously broke news that Reid injured herself training the night before and was unable to compete tonight.  Sol Ruca will defend her Speed title against a mystery opponent.

Parker was announced as the mystery opponent replacing Laney Reid.

The match started off with a bang as soon as the bell rang, with both going for quick pin attempts.  Ruca took control early, kicking Parker out of the ring and hitting her with a dive off the ring stairs before throwing her back in the ring.  Parker rolled out again, and Ruca attempted a baseball slide but was caught and punched by Parker.  Parker took control, and went for a pin repeatedly, bur Ruca kicked out at 2.  Ruca hit a backstabber-like maneuver, and went for the Sol Snatcher but was countered.  Parker took over, hit a falcon arrow, and another failed pin attempt.

Parker dropped Ruca and tried for Hypnotic.  Sol countered, tried to flip Parker over but they both collapsed onto one another.  Ruca went for a pin but Parker kicked out.  Outside the ring on the ramp, Parker hit Ruca and threw her back into the ring as the 2-minute warning was announced.  Parker went for a suplex but Ruca countered with a DDT, which was good for another near fall.  The two traded blows and Ruca took over with a flurry of offense, before Parker hit a Samoan drop.  Ruca draped Parker over the top ropes, dragged her out of the ring.

The two traded blows outside the ring until Ruca hit parker on the steps and missed a moonsault attempted. Parker hit a her finisher Hypnotic outside the ring, rolled Ruca back into the ring before confronting Zaida. Parker was then confronted by Lash Legen.  Legend tried to hit Paker but ran into a clothesline by Zaida instead. Parker rolled back into the ring but had given Ruca too much time to recover.  Ruca hit the Sol Snatcher as Parker reentered the ring, and covered Parker for the three count.

Winner: Sol Ruca in 02:56

(Weigleâ€s Analysis: The action was fast and furious, as one would expect.  It was fun while it lasted, but didnâ€t really have enough time to get going, as per the Speed rules.)

– Kelley interviewed Joe Hendry. Hendry expressed that he respects Dark State.  Dark State approached and confronted him, threatened to beat him down if he dared to speak against them, and put him in the hospital. “When Dark State strikes, ainâ€t nobody safe.â€Â  Hendry seemed to consider joining Dark State rather than standing against them.

– -Video recapping the history of the feud between Blake Monroe and Jordynne Grace.

(3) JORDYNNE GRACE vs. BLAKE MONROE – Weaponized Steel Cage Match

A shot of the audience was shown, then the steel cage, complete with weapons hanging formteh cage.  Most of the weapons were painted pink, and some had Monroeâ€s cartoon image on them.

Grace came out first, held up a sign from a fan, but the camera missed it. Grace, dressed all in white, received a nice reception from the crowd, and surveyed the cage and available weapons grimly.  Monroe came out wearing camouflage pants, a very different look from her normal ring attire indicating her intent to go to war.  Grace had a cast on her thumb, reportedly broke her thumb in an earlier melee with Monroe.  The two immediately came to blows, and Grace took over, throwing Monroe into a cage.  Grace missed a chair shot, and Monroe took over with several strikes with a pink kendo stick.  Grace took over, took the stick, and struck Monroe several times, before delivering a spinebuster on the pink chair.  Monroe set up the chair in the middle of the ring.  The two t4ied to throw one another into the chair but countered one another.  Grace slapped on a Boston Crab, while sitting on the chair. Monroe powered out.

Grace stomped Monroe, ad set up the chair in the corner.  Grace picked up Monroe, who bit Graceâ€s hand.  The two tried to throw each other into the chair, until Grace charged at Monroe in the corner.  Monroe dodged, and Grace collided with the chair.  Monroe took over, throwing Grace into the side of the cage repeatedly.  Monroe wrapped Graceâ€s injured hand into the steel cage and twisted.  She then retrieved a pink trashcan and slammed it into Graceâ€s back. She went for a pin, but Grace kicked out at w2.  Monroe crushed Graceâ€s hand under the kendo stick She missed multiple kendo stick strikes.  The two fought over the stick, until Monroe delivered an ‘inverted Russian reg sweep†assisted by the kendo stick.  She retrieved a pink hairdryer, and dragged Grace to the cage.

Monroe wrapped the hairdryer cord around Graceâ€s wrist, tying her to the ring rope.  Grace was effectively handcuffed.  Blake retrieved scissors, and proceeded to cut off Graceâ€s hair in large chunks!  The audience responded in disbelief, while Grace looked on helplessly. “Holy Shit†chant while Monroe rubbed the cut hair in her own face in celebration.

Grace broke free, elbowed Monroe, and became enraged. She hit a Lou Thez press on Monroe, hit her, then picked her up and clotheslined her repeatedly.  Grace picked up Monroe for a powerbomb, but Monroe scaled the cage.  Grace pulled Monroe down, she landed on the ropes.  Grace picked up Monroe while on the top rope, and delivered a Samoan Drop to the ring.  The hair was filled with cut locks of Graceâ€s hair. Grace hit Monroe repeatedly with a belt of some kind.  Shen then tried to slam Monroe into the garbage can, but Monroe countered and slammed Graceâ€s head into it.  Grace took the trashcan lid, but Monroe dropkicked it into Grace.  Monroe went for a pin, but Grace kicked out at 2.  Monroe retrieved a black bag, and emptied out faux diamonds and gemstones all over the mat.

Grace blocked a back suplex attempt, and slammed Monroe into the diamonds.  Monroe screamed in pain and writhed.  Grace attempted a pin but Monroe kicked out at 2.  Grace crammed her cut hair into Monroeâ€s mouth and stomped her. Grace placed Monroe on the top rope, then positioned the trash can underneath her.  Monroe countered and hung Grace in a tree of woe, put the trash can under her, and double stomped Grace into the trash can.  Monroe went for a pin while Graceâ€s body was still mostly in the trash can, but Grace kicked out.  Monroe brought out up a table to the delight of the crowd, while stomping on Graceâ€s hand.  Grace threw Monroe into the side of the cage.  Monroe set up the table near a corner, while the crowd chanted approval.

Monroe climbed the top rope.  Grace caught her and set up for an electric chair, but Monroe climbed off her to the top of the cage. The two mounted the side of the cage and traded blows.  Josephs noted that escaping the cage is not a condition for winning.  Grace treid to hit Monroe with a weapon, but Monroe threw powder in her eyes.  The two descended to the top rope.  Monroe tried to powerbomb Grace over the top rope, but was lifted up by Grace.  Grace delivered an “Air Raid Crash†from the top rope, slamming Monroe through the table.  Grace pinned Monroe for a three count.

Winner: Jordynne Grace

Grace celebrated while Joseph hypothesized she will be able to put the feud with Monroe behind her at last.

(Weigleâ€s Analysis: Wow!  This one really delivered.  This was easily Monroeâ€s best match to date. Great match with a satisfying ending.)

Lainey Reid was interviewed backstage.  She expressed disappointment that she could not wrestle the most important match of her career because she injured her foot training. Lola Vice tried to console her.  Reid predicted that Vice would lose.  Vice threatened to kick Reid “Weâ€re in Vice City, and that titleâ€s coming home with me.â€

(4) ETHAN PAGE vs. TAVION HEIGHTS -NXT North American Championship Match

Tavion Heights was the first out, and received a mild positive reaction from the audience.  He seemed excited and fired up.  Page made his entrance, entered the ring and kissed his title before handing it to the referee.

As the bell rang, the two locked up.  Tavion got the advantage, and Page went for the ropes.  As Heights released, Page took advantage by wrapping him in a headlock.  He was thrown off and attempted ot deliver a should block off the ropes repeatedly, but Tavion did not budge.

Page covered Heights for the three count

Winner: Ethan Page in 10:30.

5) JACY JAYNE vs. LOLA VICE – NXT Womenâ€s Championship Match

Vice entered first, swaying her hips and dancing down to the ring as normal.  She hugged members of her family at ringside.  Her sisters were wearing her merch.  There was a mild “Lola†chant.

Jayne entered second, accompanied by the only other surviving member of Fatal Influence, Fallon Henley.

Announcements were made in the ring by Mike Rome.  Lola got an ovation as the hometown favorite.  Jayne was booed noticeably.   The NXT crowd is responding exactly as bookers want them to.  Only Booker T and Henley expressed support for Jayne.

As she recovered, Jayne hit a Rolling Encore spinning punch for the three count.

Winner:  Jacy Jayne

(Weigleâ€s Analysis: An exciting match, possibly the best in Jayneâ€s championship reign.  Vice looked strong in defeat, received strong hometown support, and brought out the best in Jayne.  The presence of Viceâ€s family seemed to telegraph her win, so it was a mild surprise to see Jayne retain.  The attack by the hooded figure kept this from being a decisive match.)

Jayne and Henley celebrated They seemed confused about the identity of the hooded assailant, but didn’t’ seem to care.

Tuesday’s title vs. title match between NXT champion Oba Femi and TNA world champion Trick Williams ended in a no contest before chaos erupted in a massive brawl.

All hell broke loose when Williams sauntered to Mike Santana, who was sitting at the announce table, and slapped him on the side of his head. Santana didn’t take kindly to that whatsoever and immediately attacked Williams.

The bell then rang, signifying the end of the match. However, that didn’t symbolize the end of the action. TNA and NXT wrestlers then rushed to the ring and fought each other.

In the midst of the violence, there was a moment of serene peace. Ricky Saints calmly walked over to the WWE NXT Championship belt and picked it up, fiercely determined to win it on Saturday at No Mercy. Femi then caught Saints’ act, grabbed the title and stared his foe down with the belt held high as the show faded to black.

On last week’s Homecoming episode of NXT at Full Sail University, a special edition of the Grayson Waller Effect took place with Femi and Ricky Saints as the guests ahead of their scheduled NXT title match at No Mercy.

During the segment, Williams interrupted and made it clear that he wanted to win back the NXT Championship that he held twice before.

Amid the conversation between Femi and Williams, Waller took several shots at TNA, which prompted a number of TNA stars to make disgruntled posts on social media about NXT’s treatment of TNA.

After Trick and Oba exchanged words, they agreed to have a winner-take-all match this week on NXT with both the NXT Championship and TNA World Championship on the line.

Since the start of 2025, Femi and Williams have locked horns on numerous occasions, and the NXT title has been at the heart of their rivalry.

Oba won a Triple Threat match against Trick and Eddy Thorpe at New Year’s Evil back in January to win the NXT Championship for the first time, and Femi later successfully defended it in a Triple Threat against Williams and Je’Von Evans at Stand & Deliver in April.

When they met on Tuesday, the stakes were higher than ever before since titles from two different companies were on the line, placing the future of both NXT and TNA in the palm of their hands.

Because of the importance of the match and the unhappiness TNA wrestlers expressed last week, there was seemingly a good chance that they would get involved in some form or fashion.

That is exactly what happened (albeit after Williams instigated the entire affair), resulting in no clear winner, and paving the way for Femi vs. Saints for the NXT Championship to happen Saturday at No Mercy as originally scheduled.

With a potential TNA invasion looming, a big interpromotional title vs. title match headlines WWE NXT tonight.

NXT Champion Oba Femi and TNA World Champion Trick Williams will clash with both of their titles on the line. It’s a winner-take-all match where the winner will leave with both belts. However, we could potentially see the TNA roster get involved in things. Last week saw the TNA talent — led by Bound for Glory title challenger Mike Santana — voice their displeasure on social media over how NXT is treating them.

Tonight’s NXT is the go-home show for No Mercy. At the PLE, Ricky Saints has a title shot scheduled against tonight’s Femi vs. Williams winner.

We’ll find out Speed Women’s Champion Sol Ruca’s No Mercy challenger tonight when Candice LeRae and Lainey Reid meet in the finals of a number one contender’s tournament.

Plus, Myles Borne and Lexis King continue their rivalry in a Lights Out match.

Join us for live coverage beginning at 8 p.m. Eastern time.

**********

After recapping last week’s Homecoming, the show begins with footage from earlier today of NXT Champion Oba Femi and TNA World Champion Trick Williams arriving to the building.

NXT is on the air from a sound stage at the Performance Center in Orlando, and in front of a live studio audience.

Lexis King slides in from stage right aboard his gimmicked throne. Fog covers his feet on the stage. Myles Borne enters and flips a switch, and the arena light go dark. Under only spotlights, Borne attacks King. The “lights out” match is underway, and the lights are indeed out.

Myles Borne vs. Lexis King in a lights out match

Both combatants are dressed in street clothes. Borne in combat pants, and King is dressed in what appeared to be a homage to his father, Brian Pillman.

The lights are dim in the sound stage, and the ring is lit by only spotlights. The match is no disqualification, and weapons come into play early on. Metal folding chairs and trash cans are used early on. Tables and the ring steps are used later on.

They brawl through a commercial break, and they brawl around ringside. King threatens to Pillmanize, but Borne fights back and sends King crashing through the barricade. The ring steps soon come into play. Back in the ring, a table is set up and a section of the ring steps. Borne also whips King with a belt.

King is setting up for a spot on the stairs when Borne counters and DDT’s King on the steps. Borne then leaps off the stairs with a Borne Again that puts King through a table. Borne then covers King for a pinfall.

Match result: Myles Borne defeated Lexis King via pinfall in a lights out match

— Robert Stone and Stevie Turner are backstage for a skit in Ava’s office. Ava is in England and on speaker phone with Stone and Turner. Stone informs her that TNA wrestlers are walking around backstage. Stone ask Ava if she invited them, but Ava soon hangs up due to bad cell service. Not before Ava tells them she has confidence in them.

— NXT North American Champion Ethan Page is walking towards the Gorilla Position on his way to the ring for the next segment, when the show comes back from a commercial break. Meanwhile, TNA talent is seen lurking backstage.

Ethan Page issues a challenge to Hijo del Dr. Wagner Jr.

Page grabs a microphone after entering the ring. The audio feed is muted several times, presumably because of foul language chanted by the studio audience. Page hints at such as well.

In the audience is El Hijo del Dr. Wagner Jr., or is he? Page cuts a promo on him. “Wagner” stands up, and Page challenges him to a fight right now.

A referee comes to the ring and the match is on.

Ethan Page vs. “El Hijo del Dr. Wagner Jr.” (Tavion Heights in disguise)

“Wagner” makes quick work of Page, and “Wagner” locks in an angle lock submission hold. Page taps out for a submission.

Match result: “El Hijo del Dr. Wagner Jr.” defeated Ethan Page

Afterwards, “Wagner” unmasks as Tavion Heights. Page defends against Heights on Saturday at No Mercy.

— A locker room skit sets up a match later on between Jordynne Garce and Arianna Grace.

Candice LeRae vs. Lainey Reid in the WWE Speed Womenâ€s Championship #1 Contender Tournament Final

The match was fast-paced since it was so short, which is typical of a Speed match. Both looked great going the ring before going to the finish, as they go home with under a minute remaining in the match. They trade near falls when Reid counters LeRae . Reid levels LeRae with a knees strike, and Reid scores a pinfall.

Match result: Lainey Reid defeated Candice LeRae via pinfall to win the tournament

In winning, Reid earns a title shot against Women’s North American Champion Sol Ruca on Saturday at No Mercy.

— Jaida Parkers cuts a promo on Lash Legend.

Jordynne Grace vs. Arianna Grace

The battle of Graces was more of a showcase for Jordynne than Arianna. Channing “Stacks” Lorenzo appears at ringside after the match to console Arianna. Just before going home, Grace fires up with a series of short-arm clotheslines. Grace then lifts Arianna into a Torture Rack, and she sends Arianna crashing to the mat with a powerbomb.

Match result: Jordynne Grace defeated Arianna Grace via pinfall.

Blake Monroe enters the sound stage after the match, and she storms the ring with a bunch of weapons. She grabs a kendo stick wrapped in pink fabric. Grace grabs a chair, and they dual with the weapons. Grace then double-legs Monroe and they brawl on the mat as referees and security runs out to break up the impromptu fight.

Robert Stone and Stevie Turner come out to declare the Grace-Monroe match at No Mercy is weapons match inside of a steel cage! Grace and Monroe celebrate the news by resuming their pull-apart brawl.

— Lainey Reid is interviewed by Kelly Kincaid. Reid vows to win the North American title on Saturday. The Fatal Influence trio confront Reid after the interview.

NXT Women’s Champ Jacy Jayne is face-to-face with Lola Vice

Jacy Jayne, with her NXT Women’s Championship belt over her shoulder, enters for an in-ring promo. Jayne cut a great promo on Lola Vice. This was great business, and it got better when Lola Vice enters to confront Jayne.

Champion and challenger go face-to-face in the ring. Vice cuts a promo on Jayne. These two play off each other really well, and this was a helluva go-home segment. Jayne finally goes over the line by bringing up Vice’s family, and Vice lays her out with a spinning back fist. Great stuff here.

— Josh Briggs is the focus of a personality profile sponsored by an insurance company.

Joe Hendry, Kale Dixon & Uriah Connors vs. Dion Lennox, Osiris Griffin & Saquon Shugars in a six-man tag team match

Hendry teams up with Chase U against Darkstate in this trios match. In the babyface corner was Andre Chase, while Darkstate’s Cutler James was in the heels corner.

-Tonight’s show, a go-home show for No Mercy, opened with recaps from last week’s special Homecoming episode.

(1) MYLES BORNE vs. LEXIS KING – Lights Out match

The two fought outside the ring before anyone could be properly introduced, and the ref didn’t call for the bell until they got to the ring, with a chair and a trash can. Vic mentioned this is the third Lights Out match in NXT history. I’ve seen every match they ever aired, so apparently I’ve blocked the other two out. Tonight’s match is just a street fight in low light, and both guys can very clearly see one another, so I’m not sure what good the stipulation is doing (but it’s something different to look at, which is fun enough). The chair got involved early and often, with both men taking bumps off of it within the first two and a half minutes.

King slowed it down with a chinlock, then slammed Borne onto the chair for two. King repeatedly pasted Borne with the trash can as Vic tried to justify the match stipulation by saying “you can hardly see these two at times,” which was completely false. Borne caught King with a scoop slam leading to the first split-screen break. [c]

Upon return, Vic said “we can hardly see right in front of us.” I have my issues with Vic, but there is no way he’d say something so blatantly idiotic without being fed to do so. The action spilled outside, where Vic’s candy stash had somehow been strewn about the announce table side. The two jockeyed for position until Borne monkey flipped King into a corner post, where King had trapped a chair between ropes. King quickly took the power back by charging Borne into the steel steps. There was a “this is awesome” chant by a…very generous crowd. King trapped Borne’s head in a chair and went to slam on it, but Borne moved, then charged King into and through a barricade, drawing the chant that CW loves to mute to kill the momentum for those of us at home.

King set up the lower steps inside the ring, then went out to get Borne, who repeatedly used a leather belt on King. King managed a superkick and walked Borne up the small steps, where a table was set up nearby. He tried to suplex Borne through the table, but Borne switched and hit a DDT on the steps. Borne hopped up onto the steps and hit Borne Again on King through the corporate branded table, after which Vic said “He snapped into it!” Oh boy. Borne got the pinfall victory.

WINNER: Myles Borne at 11:48.

(Wells’s Analysis: It was a standard street fight, except the lights were low. It had plenty in common with every other semi-short-form street fight, and with the face winning, maybe the feud is over now. It’s great that Borne has had something to do to continue getting TV minutes, but it would be nice to see him move up the card again, as he did some really good stuff with Oba Femi. King was strong throughout the feud as well, and feels as if he’s in his final form of being a more irritating Miz on the main roster before long)

-Rob Stone and Stevie Turner talked about TNA wrestlers arriving at the show. They tried to ask Ava via phone whether she invited them, but Ava’s phone was apparently cutting out and she said “I trust you two to figure it out.” [c]

-Ethan Page hit the ring. Fans chanted “asshole,” which CW bothered to mute. Nobody cares about that word, CW. El Hijo del Dr. Wagner Jr. was at ringside, and Page called him out as having “screwed him out of his victory” at Worlds Collide. He personally invited the “hombre,” as he called him, to No Mercy, but called for him to hit the ring now. Wagner did so, and he throttled Page easily, and a ref showed up to count a tapout by Page. Was that a real match? Wagner ripped off his mask, and it was actually Tavion Heights, who had the upper hand ahead of their match at No Mercy.

-Jordynne Grace and Arianna Grace, among others, were in the women’s locker room. Arianna was blathering about makeup and said something about wanting to make sure people knew she and Jordynne weren’t related, and Jordynne said later on, they can show people just how different they are in the ring. Arianna freaked out as Jordynne walked off.

-Candice Lerae was introduced ahead of the Speed Tournament final. [c]

-NASCAR’s Cole Custer, who forgot to bring a personality, introduced the women in the next match. After one awkward pause, Vic said “Hell of a racer…hell of a ring announcer.”

(2) CANDICE LERAE vs. LAINEY REID – Winner faces Sol Ruca for the Speed Championship next week at No Mercy

Sol Ruca and Zaria were on the perch. Ruca held up a “boo” sign when Reid was introduced. Lei Ying Lee (formerly Xia Li in WWE) and Xia Brookside were shown walking through the back. Action was fast and furious as the backdrop demands, and midway through the match, Lerae trapped Reid in a crossface. Reid broke free, then broke a pinning combo with a bridge, and they each went for pins and cot two counts. Reid hit a flash knee for the victory.

WINNER: Lainey Reid at 2:25.

(Wells’s Analysis: Not much to say when the matches are so short, but the knee looked like it connected pretty good. The invitational tournament ends with the NXT wrestler winning, but she doesn’t have much of a personality yet beyond snotty. That’s genuinely a great start, but hopefully we start to see something more now that she’s got a match with Ruca lined up)

-Jaida Parker cut a pre-recorded promo on Lash Legend. She said she gave her the reality check she needs, and this ain’t over by a long shot.

-Lyra Valkyria and Tatum Paxley bonded in the back over losing friends. Paxley started playing with Valkyria’s hair, and Valkyria said “you’re weird, but you’re consistently weird, and I need that in my life.” Izzi Dame showed up with one of Paxley’s Barbie dolls and said she dropped it. She said Valkyria left her once, and would do it again.

-Jordynne Grace was introduced ahead of her match with Arianna Grace. [c]

-Vic promoted John Cena’s last appearances in Boston and New York City.

-Kale Dixon and Uriah Connors were checking up on a banged-up Andre Chase and Chase brought in Sam Mayer and Cole Custer to talk about going fast while being safe. Custer had a racing helmet on. Mayer teased saying Joe Hendry’s name but couldn’t remember it. Finally Dixon mentioned it, and “Custer” took off his helmet, and it was Hendry. DarkState said they’d meet in a six-man tonight. Cutler James looked at Mayer and said he’d see a car crash tonight.

(3) JORDYNNE GRACE vs. ARIANNA GRACE

Arianna jumped Jordynne before the bell for a cheap leg up. The ref got separation and called for the bell. Arianna worked Jordynne over with some basic slowed-down offense but Jordynne trapped her and slammed her against the corner. She hit the Direct Effect shortly afterward. This was shorter than the Speed match that preceded it by a couple of seconds.

WINNER: Jordynne Grace at 2:23.

Outside, Channing “Stacks” Lorenzo was checking on Arianna in an obviously semi-sensual manner, continuing the background tease where they were flirting a couple of weeks ago. The camera focused elsewhere, and Blake Monroe showed up and brawled. Stone and Turner showed up and Turner called out that they’d have a Weapons match on Saturday, and Stone raised the stakes by putting it in a cage.

-Kelly Kincaid talked to Lainey Reid, who had a basic but decent promo about her match with Sol Ruca on Saturday. Fatal Influence walked by, and Jacy Jayne congratulated Reid and wished her luck Saturday. She then left Fallon Henley and Jazmyn Nyx behind her and said she’d handle Lola Vice herself. Henley turned to Nyx and said “She can’t be serious.” [c]

[HOUR TWO]

-Jacy Jayne cut a promo in the ring mostly on the fans, saying they called her a third wheel, beatable, and a transitional champion. She said it was funny that Lola Vice could possibly be the one to knock her off. She said Vice had improved immensely, but shouldn’t be holding the Women’s Championship. (True, but Vice isn’t exactly alone there). She said Lola isn’t the underdog in this story – Jayne is. She said while Lola was shaking her ass, Jayne was busting her ass.

Vice hit the ramp and said Jayne was just another person talking about her ass, but at least she has an ass to shake. Is this World Championship material yet? Vice did indeed call Jayne out as a Toxic Third Wheel. She said a year ago she was emotional when she got a shot against Roxanne Perez, but this time it’s different. She said she’s more than a fighter – she’s a professional wrestler. She pandered to the crowd and said it’s for the people who always believed in her. She said it’s fitting that it’s called “No Mercy” because that’s what she’ll show Jayne when she beats her ass.

Jayne said she knows she’ll get beat up, but Vice is too preoccupied with pleasing everyone and somehow, Jayne will walk out with the title. She said afterward, Vice will look her parents in the eyes and all the sacrifices they made for her were for nothing. She said she’d walk out knowing she was her family’s biggest disappointment. Vice swiftly rotated and backfisted Jayne, who sold it like death and lay motionless as Vice held up the Women’s Championship belt. This was a pretty okay hype segment, but the match is still Jacy Jayne vs. Lola Vice.

-The six-man tag is up next. [c]

-In a branded segment, Josh Briggs cut on fans, “damn seat-fillers,” who said he didn’t connect with people. He said people just don’t get it and want approval, like JeVon Evans. He said the approval he’s chasing makes him weak. He said he doesn’t care if he connects with you as long as his boot connects with Evans’ face. He said all he cares about is the 1-2-3. Another in a series of strong promos for Briggs.

(4) JOE HENDRY & KALE DIXON & URIAH CONNORS (w/Andre Chase) vs. DARKSTATE (Dion Lennox & Osiris Griffin & Saquon Shugars) (w/Cutler James)

For a third time tonight, heels jumped before the bell. We settled into Connors being the early face in peril as DarkState nade frequent tags. Dixon made the tag and he and Lennox had a nice sequence as the audience tried on a “Chase U/DarkState” dueling chant that was honestly about 50-50. Andre must be wondering where it all went wrong. Hendry tagged in and soon after, everyone got involved. The faces cleared the ring of the heels and Dixon hit Shugars & Lennox with a plancha. Hendry and his partners all did a Hendry twisting pose and the match went to commercial with no split-screen. [c]
