WWE NXT Results 8/13 - Heritage Cup On The Line, Two Titles Matches, Eddy Thorpe Takes On Lexis King

Welcome to Wrestling Inc.'s results for "WWE NXT" on August 13, 2024, coming to you live from the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, Florida!

Coming off his successful defense against Tavion Heights at Week One of The Great American Bash, Tony D'Angelo will be putting the NXT Heritage Cup on the line against another member of No Quarter Catch Crew, Charlie Dempsey. Wren Sinclair defeated Kendal Grey during Week Two of The Great American Bash to both secure Dempsey's spot in his match tonight and earn herself a spot in No Quarter Catch Crew.

Although his opponent remains a mystery after he teased it last week, Oba Femi will be putting the North American Championship on the line for the first time since the July 16 episode of "NXT". Not only has Femi been titleholder for 218 days and counting, but he retained his title against Duke Hudson of Chase U in his most recent defense.

Speaking of Chase U, Andre Chase and Ridge Holland will be challenging Nathan Frazer and Axiom for the NXT Tag Team Championship. Despite the aforementioned Hudson's assumption that he would be teaming with Chase tonight, Holland still revealed that he had secured a title shot during Week Two of The Great American Bash. Later that same night in the main event, Frazer and Axiom successfully retained their title against now-former allies Wes Lee and Zach Wentz.

Eddy Thorpe and Lexis King have had no shortage of issues with one another over the course of the last several weeks, encountering one another a handful of times in a series of confrontations. Tonight, the duo look to settle their differences once and for all as they go one-on-one.

We are live! The show kicks off with a video recapping some of the events of Week Two of The Great American Bash.

We then head over to Sarah Schreiber trying to catch up with Wes Lee. Ethan Page then grabs the mic from Schreiber and makes his way down to the ring as Vic Joseph and Booker T then greet audiences at home.

Page says fans desperately wanted to see Oro Mensah dethrone him as NXT Champion, but he has the skills to back up his nickname of "All Ego". He says the era of "All Ego" will continue, then says no one will be able to dethrone him including Wes Lee, Trick Williams, and Pete Dunne.

Joe Hendry's music hits and he makes his way down to the ring. He tells Page that he understands why he thinks he's on top of the "NXT" roster, and says he became the talk of WWE when he won the NXT Championship. Hendry says that all changed when he arrived on the scene, then says Page's ego says one thing while the reality is completely different.

Page tells Hendry to take his victory from last week and go back to TNA Wrestling, then questions why Hendry is still in "NXT". Hendry says like everyone else, his goal is to win the NXT Championship. Page says everyone believes in Hendry except for himself, and says he rather believes that Hendry's song makes him sick to his stomach every time he hears it and he's in his 14th minute of his 15 minutes of his fame. He warns Hendry that if he comes after his NXT Championship, he will prove that Hendry is simply a flash in the pan.

Hendry tells Page that he's been grinding for ten years and made believers of everyone he's encountered, then says when he dethroned Page as titleholder, he will take the NXT Championship around the world as his song says. Page then hops out of the ring and looks to head to the back before Wes Lee appears out of nowhere and superkicks Hendry.

The Family then makes their way down to the ring.

Lee says his betrayal of The Rascalz shocked the world and himself. He says he was sure that he and Zach Wentz would win the NXT Tag Team Championship last week, but Wentz let him down again. He says his anger with Wentz dates back to two years ago when he broke up MSK, then says everyone questioned if he'd be able to become a singles competitor. Lee says he proved everyone wrong and became the greatest North American Champion of all time, but Wentz and Trey Miguel weren't there through it all. He says they went on to reunite in TNA Wrestling, and says the three of them wanted to create a legacy for years to come.

Lee says he created a legacy of his own, then tells Wentz that he's tired of being a caretaker. He says he kept everything together as The Rascalz whether that was driving him around, squashing his beefs, or waking him up for flights. He says he's done doing all that, then says he can't have his best friends riding his coattails where he wants to go. He says they only reunited with him for the WWE rub, then says he knows that he and Wentz will end up having a match. He challenges him to a match at No Mercy, and says he'll show him just that. Lee says once he beats Wentz, Wentz can go back to TNA while he focuses on becoming NXT Champion. He wishes Wentz all the best in his future endeavors.

Pete Dunne's music hits, and he makes his way out. He says he's impressed with Lee because someone in "NXT" has figured it out, but warns him about getting carried away and says with Trick Williams in his rear view, he's focused on the NXT Championship.
