WWE NXT Results 6/16 - Jaida Parker Faces Nattie, Number One Contenders Match & More

Welcome to Wrestling Inc.'s results for "WWE NXT" on June 16, 2026, coming to you live from the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, Florida!

Myles Borne will be finding out who his next challenger for the North American Championship is, as Tavion Heights collides with Jackson Drake of Vanity Project. With Heights having gotten into a couple of arguments with his former No Quarter Catch Crew stablemate Borne backstage over the last couple of weeks, he encountered Drake and the rest of Vanity Project in a brief backstage encounter during last Tuesday's show.

NXT Champion Tony D'Angelo will be meeting with Naraku as the latter has continued to have his eye on the former's title. Naraku emerged victorious against Mason Rook in a Number One Contenders match during last Tuesday's edition of "NXT" to secure a shot at D'Angelo's NXT Championship at "NXT" The Great American Bash on June 28.

Tensions between Jaida Parker and Nattie have been on the rise over the last several weeks, with the pair sending a series of messages to one another via videos and interviews. Parker also recently invaded a practice session that Nattie held at her professional wrestling school The Dungeon 2.0, which led to a brawl between the two women. Following such events, the two women will be squaring off against one another in the ring tonight.

Additionally, as of last Tuesday's show, a Women's Speed Championship Number One Contenders Tournament to determine Wren Sinclair's next challenger will be kicking off tonight. Izzi Dame of The Culling goes head-to-head with Thea Hail, and Arianna Grace of BirthRight collides with Layla Diggs in a pair of first round matches.

We are live! Vic Joseph and Corey Graves greet audiences at home before throwing it to a video recapping some of the events of last Tuesday's show.

Zaria then makes her way to the ring.

Zaria says she spent a long time living in Sol Ruca's shadow and says it felt like she forgot what the sun felt like, then gloats about becoming the new Women's North American Champion and says she did it all by herself. She says when people talked about the "NXT" women's division, they talked about people like Lola Vice and Ruca but now the Women's North American Championship is a mistake that will be fixed and says she won't be in the shadows any longer.

Kelani Jordan's music hits and she makes her way out to congratulate Zaria as the first ever Women's North American Championship. She thanks Zaria on her behalf for making the Women's North American Championship prestigious enough, but Zaria asks Jordan what she wants.

Jordan offers Zaria's some advice and says the fans currently cheering Zaria on will turn their backs on her eventually. She says Zaria will become overlooked and advises her to hold onto the Women's North American Championship very closely, then vents about still not having a shot at the NXT Women's Championship after herself and Kendal Grey have one win apiece against one another.

Kendal Grey's music hits and she makes her way out. She says she simply beat Jordan and now has a shot at the NXT Women's Championship at The Great Americano Bash, but Lola Vice's music cuts Zaria off when Zaria begins to talk and she makes her way out. She says Zaria has been a champion for a week, but tells her to get over Ruca. She tells Grey that she's beaten her, but Jordan gets in Vice's face for talking about Grey and all four women begin to fight.

Robert Stone appears on the entrance ramp, and Vice fills in the blanks by making the correct assumption that herself and Grey will be taking on Zaria and Jordan in a tag team match tonight.
