WWE NXT Results 12/9 - Deadline Fallout, Women's NA Championship Open Challenge, And More!
Welcome to Wrestling Inc.'s coverage of "WWE NXT," coming to you live from the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, Florida, this gorgeous December 9, 2025 evening! Things are going to be explosive this Tuesday as WWE's up-and-coming stars take to the ring to shape the division landscape post-Deadline. With Oba Femi as our new "NXT" Champion, Je'Von Evans and EVOLVE Women's Champion Kendal Grey as our Iron Survivors, and the return of Tony D'Angelo on the table, you'll want to just keep watching!
In the vein of Deadline fallout, Women's Iron Survivor match participants Kelani Jordan and Jordynne Grace will take to the ring tonight. Not only did Jordan and Grace both come up short in Deadline's Iron Survivor Challenge, but these two Superstars have been at each other's throats since Jordan's acquisition — and subsequent loss — of the TNA Knockouts Championships. Can they settle their differences in the ring tonight, or will they end 2025 with their teeth in each other's throats?
Elsewhere in the women's division, Blake Monroe is set to host an Open Challenge for her Women's North American Championship. Monroe snatched the title off of Sol Ruca through Zaria at Halloween Havoc, but has only defended the title once in her current-45 day reign. Who will answer "The Glamour's" call? Will Monroe be able to keep her head above water, or will she have to call upon her alter ego from Hell?
Speaking of champions, former "NXT" Tag Team Champions Hank Walker and Tank Ledger are set to return tonight. The two are returning to the states after a pilgrimage to Pro Wrestling NOAH in Japan. During their overseas excursion, they claimed the GHC Heavyweight Tag Team Champions, only to lose them just 13 days later. Will they take the lessons they learned in Japan back to Orlando, or will their "NXT" return tank magnificently?
After many weeks of video packages and interviews, Shiloh Hill is set to make his "NXT" debut. Hill's last televised match was on "WWE LFG: Legends and Future Greats," where he took a victory over Drake Morreaux in just over three minutes. Can Hill continue that momentum with his first appearance in Orlando tonight?
And we're live! We are greeted with a Deadline recap, delivered via video package. joined by Vic Joseph on play-by-play, and Booker T on color commentary.
Oba Femi Addresses the NXT Crowd.
Oba Femi performs a little jaunt down to the ring as the crowd chants "Oba" to his theme.
Power, Femi begins, does not bend, break, or begs. Femi acknowledges his Deadline opponent Ricky Saints, saying that he "momentarily knocked" Femi off his game. Regardless, "NXT" was not the same without Femi on top, and so the champion reclaimed his title.
Femi calls out Cody Rhodes, his "Saturday Night's Main Event" opponent. He says that Rhodes won't see potential, or a future threat. Rhodes will see, instead, the "now —" danger in the present.
The recently-dethroned Saints comes out to interrupt the new "NXT" titleholder. He congratulates Femi on his title win, and acknowledges him. Saints says that he is man enough to admit that Femi was the better man at Deadline. He begins to ponder over what is next for his "NXT" career, and momentarily worries that another "NXT" Championship reign is past him.
Such worries are only temporary. Saints stakes another challenge onto Femi, claiming that they are 1-1. The challenge: a tiebreaker for the "NXT" Championship.
2025's Iron Survivor Je'Von Evans makes his presence known! He boasts about his incredibly successful Deadline performance, and reminds the two men in the ring that he is the Number One Contender for the "NXT" Championship. Evans begins to ponder why he would wait until New Year's Evil to cash in his Iron Survivor privilege, and lays the gauntlet for Femi to put up his title tonight.
Saints asks Evans why he's in a rush as Femi shakes his head in disbelief. Saints discourages Evans from rushing into his title opportunity. Evans expresses his frustration with Saints' cautionary advice, and claims that he is not the future, but is the "right now." Evans doubles down on his self-advocacy, and highlights his resume: appearances on AAA, "NXT," and "WWE Raw" being a few. He reaffirms his intention to challenge Femi for his title tonight.
Saints is convinced, and begins to back Evans. Femi interjects, and asks the two championship-less individuals why they think they can boss around the world titleholder. Evans accuses Femi of being afraid of him, to which Femi reminds Evans of his current-undefeated streak against "The Young OG." Femi accepts the challenge as all three men stare each other down in the ring.
A video package detailing Kelani Jordan and Jordynne Grace's rivalry follows.
