Three matches have been added to the lineup for the card of WWE Vengeance Day, set to go down February 15, 2025 at the Entertainment and Sports Arena in Washington, D.C.
Oba Femi will defend the NXT Championship in a Triple Threat match against both members of A-Town Down Under, Austin Theory and Grayson Waller.
This came about after a Grayson Waller Effect promo segment wherein Theory and Waller badmouthed Femi, saying they don't see him as a main event star on the main roster. Femi was quick to challenge one of them to a match at Vengeance Day, and NXT General Manager Ava was also quick to come out and say Femi doesn't make the matches. Trick Williams would come out as well, leading to a fight against Theory and Waller, but was powerbombed by Femi. This led to Trick being so upset that he would lose his match against Wes Lee after this.
Backstage, Ava—upset with everyone for their actions—would inform Femi of his Triple Threat match, and later, talk to Trick about how he has a match next week teaming with Femi against A-Town Down Under. There's always a chance this match changes and becomes a Fatal 4-Way, with Trick somehow getting in the mix, but that has not yet been put out there in any official way.
There will also be a Triple Threat match for the NXT Women's Championship with Giulia defending against Bayley and Roxanne Perez. Earlier tonight, Bayley and Giulia defeated Perez and Cora Jade by pinning Jade, and in the backstage segment where Ava announced this title bout, Perez had blamed their loss on Jade, which has now upset Cora.
Stephanie Vaquer will also get her opportunity for the NXT Women's North American Championship as she faces Fallon Henley, who had defeated Shotzi to retain her title on tonight's episode. Interestingly, the tension between Henley and Jacy Jayne continues, as Fatal Influence had a backstage promo where Jayne interrupted Henley, and Henley volunteered Jayne to face Vaquer next week.
That brings the lineup for WWE Vengeance Day to the following card as of this publication:
- Triple Threat for the NXT Championship: Oba Femi (c) vs. A-Town Down Under (Austin Theory and Grayson Waller)
- Triple Threat for the NXT Women’s Championship: Giulia (c) vs. Bayley vs. Roxanne Perez
- Singles Match for the NXT Women’s North American Championship: Fallon Henley (c) vs. Stephanie Vaquer
