WWE NXT Results (10/25) - Two Tag Team Championship Matches, Shotzi Vs. Lash Legend, Schism Reveals Their Newest Member

Welcome to Wrestling Inc.'s results of "WWE NXT" on October 25, 2022!

"NXT" Tag Team Champions Pretty Deadly will be putting their titles on the line as they take on number one contenders Edris Enofè and Malik Blade. The two underdogs conquered Josh Briggs, Brooks Jensen and The Dyad in a Triple Threat Match a couple of weeks ago (with a little help from Cameron Grimes) and have been a cohesive unit since banding together late last year. They have quite the challenge ahead of them as Pretty Deadly have kept hold of their titles on multiple occasions since capturing them at Worlds Collide. Will Pretty Deadly be able to scurry away with their titles once again, or will new champions be crowned tonight?

Another pair of titles is also set to be defended on tonight's show, as Nikkita Lyons and Zoey Stark get their shot at "NXT" Women's Tag Team Champions Kayden Carter and Katana Chance. Stark and Lyons have been eyeing up the titles since Chance and Carter won them in a Fatal Four-Way Match on the August 2 edition of the show. Which team will come out on top?

Joe Gacy, Rip Fowler and Jagger Reid of Schism will be revealing the identity of their newest recruit: the person in the red hoodie. The mysterious figure officially became part of the group on the October 4 episode of the show after helping Gacy execute his plan to blindside Cameron Grimes with a surprise attack after months of sticking by them. Who will it be?

"SmackDown" Superstar Shotzi will also be back in action on "NXT" programming as she goes one on one with Lash Legend. The pair encountered one another this past Saturday at Halloween Havoc, which ended in a physical altercation. Which woman will take home the win?

We are live! The show begins with a recap of Halloween Havoc. We then head to the ring, where Kayden Carter, Katana Chance, Nikkita Lyons and Zoey Stark wait inside.

We Hear From Wes Lee

Lee says he wanted to come out to thank fans for their support. He says he never thought he would make it to WWE, let alone be a champion, but everyone's faith in him inspired him. He says winning the title gave him a sense of validation and a feeling of belonging. He says he is forever grateful and when he stood on top of the ladder while fans chanted, the feeling was indescribable. He says he will be sure to exceed expectations, but before he can continue, Grayson Waller's music hits and he cuts him off.

Waller says he hates Halloween and says he "technically won". He says he is still one up on Apollo Crews.

R-Truth's music hits and he raps his way to the ring in a Joker costume. Truth tells Orlando to make some noise before welcoming fans to Halloween Havoc.
