Next Tuesday night's episode of WWE NXT (airing January 28, 2025 on the CW Network) will take place at Center Stage in Atlanta, Georgia. After tonight's episode, we now know most of the lineup of what has been advertised for that show.
Of course, the card is always subject to change, and there will undoubtedly be extra matches and other segments that go down on top of all this, but as far as immediately following this week's NXT, here is what is scheduled for next week's episode.
There was a backstage segment where Ava informed Je'Von Evans that he still hasn't been cleared to compete, even though he wants to get his hands on Ethan Page and get some payback for Page injuring his jaw. While Evans can't do that yet, his ally Uncle Ced is in fact cleared to compete, so it seems Cedric Alexander will face Ethan Page next week to fight not just for himself, but for Evans as well.
On this same segment, A-Town Down Under approached Ava, talking about how the winner of the NXT Championship match in the main event will join them as their guest for a Grayson Waller Effect segment next week. As Oba Femi successfully retained the NXT Championship over Eddy Thorpe, it'll be Femi in that chair. Waller and Theory were looking on, watching that match take place, and they'll assuredly have something to say about Trick Williams coming out after the match to have a stare down with Femi and hit Thorpe with a Trick Shot.
Speaking of Trick Williams, he will be in action next week against Wes Lee. On this episode, Lee got a slap in the face for badmouthing Trick in the locker room, and after he called out Trick following his win over Dion Lennox, Trick beat down Lee once again and said if Lee wants a match next week, he's got one. It was later made official.
One of the first segments of the night saw Bayley and NXT Women's Champion Giulia in the ring together for a promo where they would eventually cross paths with Roxanne Perez and Cora Jade, leading to a brawl between them. That has set up a tag team match for next week.
Also in women's tag team action, Bianca Belair and Naomi will defend the WWE Women's Tag Team Championships against The Meta Girls (Lash Legend and Jakara Jackson). There was a video package from Belair and Naomi to hype this up, as well as a backstage moment where The Meta Girls were talking to some other members of the women's division about how when they win the titles and take them back to NXT, people like Sol Ruca & Zaria, and Gigi Dolin & Tatum Paxley will get title shots.
Finally, Fallon Henley will defend the NXT Women’s North American Championship against Shotzi. Stephanie Vaquer, who was No. 1 contender until she lost to Shotzi due to Henley hitting her in the back with the title belt, is still gunning for that title and will be going after whoever walks out with the championship.
Here is the current full lineup of next week’s NXT:
- Women’s Tag Team Championship Match: Bianca Belair & Naomi (c) vs. Lash Legend & Jakara Jackson
- Bayley & Giulia vs. Roxanne Perez & Cora Jade
- Trick Williams vs. Wes Lee
- The Grayson Waller Effect with Oba Femi
- Ethan Page vs Cedric Alexander
- NXT Women’s North American Championship Match: Fallon Henley (c) vs Shotzi
