Two title matches set for WWE NXT Vengeance Day
Two title matches are set for next month’s Vengeance Day.
After a brawl in the parking lot, Ricky Saints and the new NXT Champion met face-to-face on Tuesday, entering a war of words with one another. Saints said Hendry was great at marketing but wasn’t about to let someone like him ruin his run in NXT, issuing the challenge for the March 7 PLE. Hendry agreed to the bout, saying he had no problem taking Saints out at Vengeance Day.
Earlier this month, Hendry won the vacant title for the first time after sending Saints crashing through a ladder.
The NXT Women’s North American title will also be defended. Izzi Dame was shown mocking Tatum Paxley’s promo from the previous week and dismissed Paxley’s claim that a new version of herself would be coming for Dame. The North American Champion said that no matter what version of Paxley appears at Vengeance Day, she would remain champion.
Tuesday marked the first time that the Vengeance Day PLE has been brought up by WWE, with no venue announced for the show. Here is the updated lineup:
NXT Vengeance Day (March 7)
- NXT Championship: Joe Hendry defends against Ricky Saints
- NXT Women’s North American Championship: Izzi Dame vs. Tatum Paxley
