11/18 NXT Preview
Tatum Paxley is set to defend the NXT Women’s Championship tonight against Fatal Influence’s Jacy Jayne. Paxley took the title from Jayne at NXT Halloween Havoc on October 25, and Jayne pushed her way into another opportunity during a verbal exchange on last Tuesday’s NXT. Despite Izzi Dame trying to convince Paxley not to accept the challenge, Paxley agreed to the match.
Three additional championships will be defended. Sol Ruca aims to reclaim the Women’s North American Championship when she faces current champion Blake Monroe. Monroe won the title at Halloween Havoc by defeating Ruca’s ally Zaria, who stepped in while Ruca was sidelined with a knee injury. Now cleared for action, Ruca maintains she’s ready for her return even though Zaria and NXT General Manager Ava still have concerns about her recovery.
Osiris Griffin and Dion Lennox of DarkState will defend the NXT Championship for the first time since becoming two-time champions at Halloween Havoc, where they defeated “Broken” Matt Hardy and Brother Nero in a Broken Rules Match. Tonight, they face Je’Von Evans and TNA X-Division Champion Leon Slater. Evans issued the challenge last Tuesday, and he and Slater managed to turn the tables on DarkState by pretending Slater wasn’t in the Performance Center, only for him to appear virtually during the segment.
Chelsea Green and Ethan Page will also put the AAA World Mixed Tag Team Championship on the line for the first time since defeating LA Hiedra and Mr. Iguana at AAA Alianzas on November 2. Their challengers, Thea Hail and TNA’s Joe Hendry, earned momentum when Hail defeated Alba Fyre last Tuesday while Green, Page, and Hendry watched from ringside.
