WWE NXT Roadblock Results 3/5 - Number One Contenders Match, Tag Team Titles On The Line
Welcome to Wrestling Inc.'s results for "WWE NXT" Roadblock on March 5, 2024, coming to you live from the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, Florida!
Ilja Dragunov's challenger for the "NXT" Championship at "NXT" Stand & Deliver on April 6 will be determined tonight, as Carmelo Hayes goes one-on-one with Tony D'Angelo. While Hayes has made it clear that he wants to become "NXT" Champion once again over the past few weeks, D'Angelo made his case to "NXT" General Manager Ava last week as to why he should get a Number One Contenders match. This led to Ava creating tonight's match on the condition that Dragunov agreed.
After successfully defending the Women's Tag Team Championship against Indi Hartwell and Candice LeRae on the WWE Elimination Chamber kickoff show on February 24, The Kabuki Warriors will be putting their title on the line once again as they square off with "NXT" Women's Champion Lyra Valkyria and Tatum Paxley. Valkyria secured tonight's match as a way of thanking Paxley for staying backstage as she defended her title two weeks ago.
Another tag team title will be on the line tonight, as Bron Breakker and Baron Corbin defend the "NXT" Tag Team Championship on the line against Chase U's Andre Chase and Duke Hudson. Chase and Hudson defeated Nathan Frazer and Axiom in a Number One Contenders match on February 20 to secure their spot in tonight's match.
Shawn Spears will be competing in his first match in WWE since making his staggering return to "NXT" last week. Spears blindsided Ridge Holland with a chair last week as the latter apologized for his actions during his feud with Gallus.
Dijak will be facing Joe Gacy once again following mounting tensions between them over the past few weeks, but it won't just be any ordinary match as it will be an Asylum Match. The pair previously squared off at Vengeance Day last month in a No Disqualification match, during which Dijak ultimately came out on top.
We are live! The show kicks off with a video from Lexis King running down the card for tonight's show.
Vic Joseph and Booker T then greet audiences at home as Dijak and Joe Gacy make their way down to the ring, with a cage surrounding it and weapons filled inside.

He addresses Ridge Holland and says those words must hit close to home for him.

Holland's music hits and he marches down to the ring. Spears keeps egging Holland on, and Holland wastes no time going after Spears. He fires off stomps and right hands on him, then tosses him across the ring. Spears slides the chair he was holding over to him. Officials run down to the ring, and Holland tosses the chair down on the mat out of anger.

Dempsey says it's an honor to hold the "NXT" Heritage Cup and says it aligns with his vision of the pure art of professional wrestling.
