While NXT house shows don’t carry the stakes of TV tapings, the Venice crowd was treated to a lineup that showcased the brand’s depth. The Blindfold Match between Lexis King and Myles Borne was a classic throwback comedy spot, but it didn’t overshadow Sol Ruca’s title defense, which continues to establish her as one of NXT’s fastest-rising stars. Joe Hendry’s surprise appearance also added a main roster-level jolt to the night — proving WWE isn’t afraid to blend rosters on the live circuit to keep fans buzzing.
