WWE NXT Results - September 02, 2025: Briggs’ Rampage, Speed Tournament Heats Up, DarkState Falls in Main Event

The Performance Center in Winter Park, FL was buzzing Tuesday night as NXT rolled out a loaded show on the road to No Mercy. Between Lash Legend and Jaida Parker tearing each other apart, Candice LeRae advancing in the Speed Tournament, and an explosive 8-man main event, the episode delivered action, drama, and plenty of chaos outside the ring.

Lash Legend vs. Jaida Parker

The show opened with two powerhouses colliding. Lash Legend controlled early with size and power, but Jaida Parker countered with her speed and tenacity. The fight spilled outside, where Legend nailed Parker with her devastating Lash Extension on the announce table before finishing her inside the ring.

Winner: Lash Legend via Pinfall

Post-match, Parker refused to accept defeat, blindsiding Legend and planting her through the barricade with The Hypnotic to keep this rivalry white hot.

Backstage Segment – Arianna Grace, Blake Monroe, Jordynne Grace & Kali Armstrong

Arianna Grace was busy flirting with Stacks until Blake Monroe interrupted. Their chat turned hostile when Jordynne Grace stormed in, sparking a shoving match. Kali Armstrong inserted herself, warning Jordynne that she’s made a powerful new enemy.

Je’Von Evans & Josh Briggs Segment

Je’Von Evans opened his heart to the NXT Universe, reflecting on falling short against Oba Femi at Heatwave. Before he could rebuild his confidence, Josh Briggs crashed the moment with biting words. Briggs accused Evans of immaturity and entitlement before leveling him with a big boot and a brutal chokeslam through a steel chair. The message was clear — Briggs plans to carve his own path at Evans’ expense.

Candice LeRae vs. Xia Brookside (Women’s Speed Championship Tournament – Round 1)

Xia Brookside flew out of the gate with quick roll-ups and aerial offense, but Candice LeRae proved her veteran savvy. After surviving Brookside’s burst of momentum, LeRae landed a Tornado DDT and sealed the win with her Springboard Moonsault to advance in the Speed Tournament.

Winner: Candice LeRae via Pinfall

Trick Williams & DIY In-Ring Segment

Trick Williams proclaimed himself the greatest NXT Superstar ever — until DIY (Johnny Gargano & Tommaso Ciampa) returned to challenge his claim. What started as banter turned physical, with DIY dropping Trick with Meeting in the Middle. The segment sets up a generational clash as Trick looks to prove he’s more than hype against two of NXT’s most iconic names.

Jordynne Grace vs. Kali Armstrong

Kali Armstrong imposed her will early, but Jordynne Grace fought back with her trademark power. After a hard-hitting exchange, Grace dropped Armstrong with the Spinning Back Fist and finished her with Beast Mode.

Winner: Jordynne Grace via Pinfall

Afterward, Grace’s feud with Blake Monroe reignited in a vicious brawl that ended with Monroe bleeding at ringside.

Josh Briggs vs. Andre Chase (w/ Chase U)

Andre Chase fought valiantly, even rattling Briggs with a flurry of superkicks, but Briggs’ sheer brutality was too much. After a Bossman Slam and Chokeslam, Briggs crushed Chase with a Running Boot to take the victory.

Winner: Josh Briggs via Pinfall

Not satisfied, Briggs destroyed Chase U afterward, chokeslamming Connors through the announce table.

Main Event – Oba Femi, Ricky Saints, Hank & Tank vs. DarkState (8-Man Tag)

The main event was chaotic from bell to bell. While Hank & Tank relied on power double-teams, Oba Femi and Ricky Saints’ uneasy alliance repeatedly broke down into brawls. DarkState nearly stole the win with their double-team offense, but the tide turned when Joe Hendry appeared on the apron. The distraction allowed Hank & Tank to hit their Running Powerslam/Headbutt combo for the decisive pinfall.

Winners: Oba Femi, Ricky Saints, Hank & Tank via Pinfall

As the show closed, Femi and Saints’ feud exploded into a backstage brawl, signaling that their alliance is officially dead heading into No Mercy.

🎙️ Wrestling.news | Backstage Take

NXT is in full gear on the road to No Mercy, and this episode had layers. Lash Legend and Jaida Parker are crafting one of NXT’s most physical women’s rivalries. Candice LeRae advancing sets up intrigue for the Speed Title picture, while Trick Williams vs. DIY screams big-money moment for Homecoming. But Josh Briggs was the story — his destruction of Je’Von Evans and Chase U cements him as a ruthless heel climbing the ladder. The main event chaos shows the cracks in Oba Femi’s dominance, and Ricky Saints could be the one to exploit it.
