WWE NXT Results 5/27 - Stephanie Vaquer Defends NXT Women's Title, North American Title Up For Grabs

Welcome to Wrestling Inc.'s results for "WWE NXT" on May 27, 2025, coming to you live from the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, Florida!

After successfully retaining her title against Jordynne Grace at "NXT" Battleground this past Sunday, Stephanie Vaquer will be putting the NXT Women's Championship on the line once again tonight as she defends against Jacy Jayne of Fatal Influence. Not only did Jayne and Vaquer square off in a tag team match on the May 13 episode of "NXT" in which the former and her stablemate Fallon Henley came up short against the latter and the aforementioned Grace, but Jayne was also previously unsuccessful in challenging Vaquer for her title at an "NXT" Live Event on May 17 in Jacksonville, Florida.

Another championship will be on the line tonight, as Ethan Page challenges Ricky Saints for the North American Championship in what will be Saints' first defense since retaining against Lexis King on the April 29 episode of "NXT". The two men have had no shortage of issues with one another over the course of the past several weeks, with Page previously being unable to dethrone Saints as titleholder at "NXT" Stand & Deliver on April 19.

We are live! The show kicks off with a video recapping the events of Battleground.

Vic Joseph, Booker T, and Corey Graves greet audiences at home as Ricky Saints makes his way out to the ring. Ethan Page follows, and security guards line the outside of the ring.

We Hear From Trick Williams

Williams says Hollywood Trick has arrived, then says he's making history by being the first "NXT" star to hold the TNA World Championship. Williams tells the live crowd not to clap for him because most of them were cheering for Joe Hendry last week, then says people like Kurt Angle, Drew McIntyre, Bully Ray, and AJ Styles have held the TNA World Championship. He says he's turning his back on the people because they turned their back on him last week.

Mike Santana's music hits, and he makes his way out. Williams says Santana made his first mistake by interrupting his champion, but Santana says Williams is not his champion and says Williams will not tear down TNA after himself and the rest of the locker room built up. He says people like Williams make him angry, then calls Williams a pretend fighter and a pretend rapper. He vows to be the one to dethrone Williams as TNA World Champion.

Santino Marella appears on the Titan Tron and congratulates Williams, then says Williams will be a fighting champion and announces that Williams will be defending the TNA World Championship against Santana next week.
