WWE Website Accidentally Confirms Who Attacked Lola Vice at NXT No Mercy
What was supposed to be a shocking reveal on Saturday night at NXT No Mercy turned into a full-blown spoiler thanks to WWE’s own website. During the NXT Women’s Championship clash between Jacy Jayne and Lola Vice, chaos erupted when a masked attacker blindsided Vice, allowing Jayne to escape with her title.
On the broadcast, the attacker’s identity was left a mystery—fuel for future episodes of NXT. But fans who checked WWE.com’s official recap immediately after the event got more than they bargained for.
The article originally opened with the line:
“Jacy Jayne retained the NXT Women’s Championship thanks to a shocking assist from Lainey Reid.”
The problem? Reid’s name hadn’t been revealed on television. The sentence was quietly edited hours later to a more vague version:
“Jacy Jayne is still the NXT Women’s Champion, but not without some controversy.”
By then, the damage was done. The spoiler spread across social media, effectively confirming Reid as the woman behind the mask and the newest ally of Jayne.
How It All Went Down
The match itself told a compelling story. Vice had Jayne on the ropes late, scoring near-falls and seemingly on her way to capturing gold. Former ally Fallon Henley complicated matters, yanking the referee out of the ring before being ejected from ringside.
Just when Vice regained momentum, the hooded figure struck—hitting her with a running knee on the floor. Jayne capitalized, landing her “Rolling Encore” finisher to retain the championship.
The reveal of Lainey Reid’s involvement adds a dramatic twist. Reid had been written out of competition weeks ago with a supposed injury. At No Mercy, she even appeared backstage in a walking boot, further selling the story before exposing the ruse in the night’s closing act.
Fallout in the Women’s Division
Jayne’s group, Fatal Influence, has been crumbling since kicking out Jazmyn Nyx, who has since left WWE. With Fallon Henley now an enemy and Lainey Reid firmly in her corner, Jayne has rebuilt her alliances and secured a dangerous new partner in the process.
Expect fallout and confrontation on this week’s episode of NXT, where Lola Vice will no doubt demand answers—and revenge.
🗣️ Wrestling.news | Backstage Take
WWE’s slip-up on its own website is a rare but costly mistake. Storyline reveals are meant to build suspense, especially in NXT’s women’s division where rising stars like Lola Vice are being groomed for spotlight runs. Accidentally naming Lainey Reid before the storyline payoff undercuts the drama—but in some ways, it adds buzz. Fans now know what’s coming, and it creates anticipation for how Jayne and Reid will explain their partnership.
The bigger story may be Lola Vice herself. She looked every bit like a future champion at No Mercy, and this angle positions her as the division’s top babyface. If WWE can keep the momentum rolling, Vice could be carrying the women’s title sooner rather than later.
