Next week's episode of WWE NXT will take place at the 713 Music Hall in Houston, Texas, and WWE has tried to pack that show with quite a bit.
On tonight's episode, Jordynne Grace flipped out about how Blake Monroe screwed her over in her match at WWE Evolution for the NXT Women's Championship against Jacy Jayne, costing her the title. Grace actually interrupted an EVOLVE Women's Championship bout (between Kali Armstrong and Karmen Petrovic) just to grab a microphone and demand Monroe to explain herself.
Instead of getting her wish, a TitanTron vignette about Monroe appeared and invited her to witness her singles match debut next week, as she wasn't there tonight. Monroe also said that Grace wasn't worthy of being the champion.
Blake's opponent will be Wren Sinclair, who had a backstage segment explaining why she threw in the towel to quit on Tavion Heights' behalf in his match against Charlie Dempsey. She did so because she cares about both of them and didn't want Heights to get hurt. Houston is her hometown, so she's excited to be wrestling there next week, and will have them in her corner if they so choose, as she made it clear she wouldn't ever leave them.
Jasper Troy will be in action against Ricky Saints. NXT General Manager Ava made that match to compensate for how Troy got involved in the Falls Count Anywhere match at NXT Great American Bash, wherein he attacked Saints and was one of the factors in Saints failing to beat Ethan Page.
Depending on who walks out of TNA Slammiversary with the NXT Women's Championship and TNA Knockouts World Championship (between Jacy Jayne and Masha Slamovich), they will have two women clamoring to be the next in line for those belts as both Lash Legend and Jaida Parker want to capitalize on the momentum from their exposure in the battle royal at Evolution, hoping to put their names in the hat for a title shot.
Speaking of titles, Josh Briggs had a promo segment complaining that Yoshiki Inamura is too nice to do what's necessary to beat Oba Femi for the NXT Championship. After both Femi and Inamura came out, both acknowledging how Briggs doesn't speak for Inamura (who wants to win the title with honor), Briggs challenged Femi to make his rematch with Inamura a Triple Threat by including Briggs into it. This led to a brawl where Briggs accidentally hit Inamura.
There will be a celebration of sorts surrounding Ethan Page and how he retained his NXT North American Championship at The Great American Bash.
Lastly, The Undertaker wants to confront Trick Williams. He's given him some advice before, but now, The Phenom is upset over how the TNA champion (at least for now; he could lose the title on Sunday) was disrespectful to Team Undertaker from WWE LFG in a backstage segment where Shiloh Hill, Bayley Humphrey, Dani Sekelsky, and Drake Morreaux were hanging out and Trick decided to grandstand and belittle them.
To recap, here's what we know so far for next week's NXT:
- Triple Threat Match for the NXT Championship: Oba Femi (c) vs. Josh Briggs vs. Yoshiki Inamura
- Blake Monroe vs. Wren Sinclair
- Lash Legend and Jaida Parker will confront the NXT Women's & TNA Knockouts World Champion (whoever wins between Jacy Jayne or Masha Slamovich at TNA Slammiversary)
- Jasper Troy vs. Ricky Saints
- The Undertaker will confront Trick Williams
- Ethan Page celebrates being "The Greatest North American"
