WWE NXT Results 9/1 - We Hear From Kelani Jordan, Shiloh Hill Faces Naraku & More

Welcome to Wrestling Inc.'s live coverage for "WWE NXT" on September 1, 2026, coming to you live from the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, Florida!

After weeks of vying for a shot at the NXT Women's Champion, Kelani Jordan finally received another shot at Kendal Grey's NXT Women's Championship at "NXT" Heatwave this past Sunday. With her having come out on top in the match and put an end to Grey's 63 day reign as NXT Women's Champion, Jordan will be making an appearance on tonight's show with something on her mind to share.

Women's EVOLVE Champion Nikkita Lyons will be in action as she collides with Thea Hail in a non-title match. After Petrovic had left the ringside area with her AAA Los Perros del Mal stablemates during a Submission Match between her ally Nattie and Jaida Parker at Heatwave, Hail ran out to the ring to take out an interfering Lyons and brawled with her to the back which allowed Parker to win the match.

Naraku will be in action as he goes head-to-head with Shiloh Hill. Naraku cost Hill a match against Jackson Drake of Vanity Project and a subsequent North American Championship match on the August 18 episode of "NXT", spraying him with mist in his face as Hill teetered on the ropes. Drake went on to dethrone Myles Borne as North American Champion at Heatwave, with his stablemates Brad Baylor and Ricky Smokes having dethroned Borne and Tavion Heights as NXT Tag Team Champions earlier that same night and Borne blindsiding Heights with Borne Again in the moments that followed the North American Championship match.

Additionally, Mason Rook will be squaring off against Kam Hendrix following weeks of increasing animosity between the pair. Dorian Van Dux and Sean Legacy will also be joining forces with one another to take on Romeo Moreno and Noam Dar in tag team competition.

We are live! The show kicks off with a video recapping the events of Heatwave this past Sunday.

Vic Joseph and Booker T then greet audiences at home as Zilla Fatu makes his way to the ring.

Zilla says he was hoping he would be in the ring tonight as the new NXT Champion, but Heatwave didn't go his way and the stars didn't align. He says it felt amazing to share the ring fighting for a WWE Championship, then says it's not a matter of if but when he wins the NXT Championship.

Tristan Angels' music hits and he makes his way out. He asks Zilla if he'll be prattling on about the NXT Championship, then says Zilla isn't even "The Main One" in his family and the further down his Bloodline you go, the less talented you get. He says Zilla doesn't look like or carry himself like a champion.

Zilla calls Angels "Gangrel Jr.", then says he likes Angels' accent but not his attitude. Zilla challenges Angels to a match tonight, and Angels accepts. Angels then looks to level Zilla, but Zilla quickly gains the upperhand. Angels rolls out of the ring.

Shiloh Hill then makes his way to the ring. Naraku follows.

The bell rings and the two lock up. Hill fires off a couple of right hands on Naraku, then connects with a mat return on him. Hill rocks Naraku with a back elbow before the action spills out of the ring and sends his face repeatedly bouncing off the ring apron during the commercial break.

Hill dumps Naraku back inside the ring and ascends to the top rope, then lands a clothesline on Naraku. Naraku fires off stomps on Hill, then delivers a twisting neckbreaker on him and levels him with a clothesline. Naraku cinches in a crossface on Hill, then takes him down with a clothesline of his own and wears him down with another submission hold.

Naraku delivers a leg sweep facebuster to Hill back from the break, but Hill fires off right hands on Naraku and connects with a big boot on him. He levels Naraku with a right hand and connects with a bodyslam on him, then follows it up with a standing 450 Splash and goes for a pin. Naraku kicks out.

Naraku lands an off the shoulder sit-out powerbomb on Hill and pins him, but Hill kicks out and Naraku sprays some mist into his hand. He rakes Hill's eye using his misted hand and follows it up with Enter The Abyss for the win.

Winner: Naraku
