Eddy Thorpe Earns Title Shot at NXT Live Event – On January 11, 2025, NXT held a live event at the Jacksonville Armory in Jacksonville, Florida, delivering an action-packed night featuring title defenses and a battle royal to crown a new #1 contender for the NXT Championship.
Eddy Thorpe secured a future shot at the NXT Championship by outlasting competitors in a hard-fought men’s battle royal. While the exact date for his title opportunity remains unconfirmed, the timing suggests it could take place at the upcoming Vengeance Day Premium Live Event on Saturday, February 15, 2025, in Washington, D.C.
