WWE NXT makes its debut on the CW Network tonight at 8pm ET! from the Allstate Arena in Rosemont, IL! WWE has appropriately stacked the card tonight, as Giulia takes on Roxanne Perez for the NXT Women’s Championship, Miz TV comes to NXT, and CM Punk will referee the NXT Championship match between Trick Williams and Ethan Page. Let’s take a look at everything announced for tonight’s debut episode of WWE NXT on the CW:
WWE NXT on the CW card: October 1, 2024
Lola Vice and Jaida Parker vs. Fatal Influence
WWE’s official preview:
Two of NXT’s brightest young Superstars will team up as Jaida Parker and Lola Vice join forces to take on Fatal Influence.
Jacy Jayne, Fallon Henley and Jazmyn Nyx have terrorized NXT since aligning, and since Parker and Vice can’t do it alone, they’ve been forced to put their differences aside in search of a win.
Can Parker and Vice coexist, and which two members of Fatal Influence will be in the match?
Zachary Wentz vs. Wes Lee (Street Fight)
WWE’s official preview:
Former best friends and NXT Tag Team Champions Wes Lee and Zach Wentz will battle in a Street Fight in a bitter grudge match.
TNA stars Wentz and his Rascalz teammate Trey Miguel surprised Lee in NXT and boosted his spirits, but Lee attacked them after they failed to regain the NXT Tag Team Title.
That brutal attack was followed by Wentz defeating Lee at NXT No Mercy, but The Cardiac Kid attacked Miguel in a parking lot in Ohio, setting the stage for a Street Fight between the two Superstars.
Miz TV with special guests Oba Femi and Tony D’Angelo
WWE’s official preview:
The Miz will be in an NXT ring when he brings “Miz TV” to the NXT premiere on the CW Network with special guests Oba Femi and Tony D’Angelo.
Femi has been a dominant North American Champion and is just days away from setting the record for longest reign in history, but D’Angelo is determined to be the Superstar to dethrone him.
Roxanne Perez (c) vs. Giulia for the NXT Women’s Championship
WWE’s official preview:
NXT Women’s Champion Roxanne Perez will defend her title against perhaps her toughest foe yet as she battles Giulia to kick off the NXT premiere on CW.
The globally renowned Giulia confronted Perez at NXT No Mercy in September, and after a dominant showing against Chelsea Green, it was determined that the Japanese sensation would challenge Perez.
Two weeks of confrontations have paved the way for one of the most highly anticipated NXT Women’s Championship Matches ever.
Ethan Page (c) vs. Trick Williams for the NXT Championship (Special Guest Referee CM Punk)
WWE’s official preview:
The NXT Championship will be on the line when Ethan Page defends his title against former champion Trick Williams with Raw Superstar CM Punk serving as the Special Guest Referee.
Williams lost the title to Page in a Fatal 4-Way Match at NXT Heatwave where Williams wasn’t even pinned, ushering in “The Era of Ego,” as Page calls it.
Williams outlasted Pete Dunne in a Last Man Standing Match to become the No. 1 Contender, and CM Punk came to NXT to reveal that he would be the Special Guest Referee in his hometown of Chicago.
