WWE NXT Results 10/29 - Heritage Cup On The Line, Nathan Frazer And Axiom Defend The NXT Tag Team Title

Welcome to Wrestling Inc.'s results for "WWE NXT" on October 29, 2024, coming to you live from the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, Florida!

Charlie Dempsey of No Quarter Catch Crew will be putting the NXT Heritage Cup on the line on television for the first time since retaining against Je'Von Evans on the September 10 episode of "NXT" as he defends against Lexis King. Although King was himself unable to find himself someone to be in his corner for tonight's match, his search came to an end at "NXT" Halloween Havoc when William Regal approached him and offered to be at ringside with him.

As tensions between them continue to be on the rise, Nathan Frazer and Axiom will have to find a way to work together as a cohesive unit as they defend the NXT Tag Team Championship against the aforementioned Evans and Cedric Alexander. Frazer and Axiom's last defense came on the October 8 edition of "NXT" when they retained against A-Town Down Under while Evans and Alexander have become well acquainted with one another over the course of the past few weeks.

Zaria will be competing in her first ever match in a WWE ring tonight against an opponent who has yet to be announced. Zaria made two separate appearances at Sunday's Premium Live Event, with one being to stare down Giulia, Stephanie Vaquer, Roxanne Perez, and Cora Jade following their tag team match and the other being to blindside Fatal Influence with an attack after Fallon Henley dethroned Kelani Jordan as Women's North American Champion in a Gauntlet Match.

We are live! Vic Joseph and Booker T greet audiences at home as Tatum Paxley makes her way out to the ring bringing a giant casket with her. Wendy Choo follows, bringing a head along with her.

The bell rings and Paxley connects with a dropkick on Choo. Choo responds with a clothesline, but Paxley kips up and lands an enzuigiri. She dumps Choo onto the apron and looks to land a German suplex on her into the casket, but Choo escapes and delivers a kick to Paxley on the outside. She looks to hit her with a garbage can, but Paxley takes it from her and places it over her head. She grabs a broom from under the ring and hits Choo with it repeatedly, then dumps her back in the ring along with the garbage can and follows her back inside.

Paxley sets up the garbage can in the corner, then delivers a crossbody to Choo in the opposite corner and gets her up on her shoulders. She then sends her crashing into the mat and charges at her looking to send her crashing into the trash can, but Choo sees her coming and Paxley is sent crashing into the garbage can. Choo then places Paxley in the garbage can as she hangs off the top rope by her knees, then lands a dropkick on her.

Back from the break, Choo looks to send Paxley cashing through a dollhouse set up in the corner. Paxley stops her own momentum and looks to send Choo crashing through it instead, but Choo manages to land a hip toss on her through the dollhouse. She then closes the casket, but her pillow blocks it from fully being closed. Paxley escapes using the pillow, but Choo hits her with it and opens it up to reveal several pieces of Lego. She then sends Paxley crashing on top of them and dumps her into the casket, then looks to close the casket.

Paxley prevents Choo from doing so, but Choo flies off the apron with a senton and locks them both inside. Both Paxley and Choo both rise from the casket, but Paxley sprays a fire extinguisher on Choo's face and sends her crashing through the bed she had brought down to the ring. She then gets Choo in the casket and closes it for the win.

Winner: Tatum Paxley

Trick Williams then makes his way down to the ring. 

Williams says he walked through the Devil's Playground to retain the NXT Championship against Ethan Page. He admits to being sore, but addresses Ridge Holland attacking him after his defense and calls Bubba Ray Dudley to the ring.

Bubba Ray makes his way out and Williams thanks him for his help at Halloween Havoc. Bubba Ray tells Williams that a thanks isn't necessary, and says the reason he appeared was due to Holland's disrespect. He says he watched Williams in his Devil's Playground Match and hear the people cheer for him, but as he was getting beat down by Holland, he was looking at the entryway for someone to help Williams. He tells Williams he needs to have eyes in the back of his head, and Williams says while he hears what Bubba Ray is saying, he wants revenge on Ethan Page and Holland. He proposes teaming with Bubba Ray to take on Page and Holland next week at the 2300 Arena, and after some consideration, Bubba Ray declines to take the spot of someone else in the "NXT" locker room.

We then head backstage and see Ava and Rob Van Dam watch what just happened. RVD voices his interest in being part of the "NXT" 2300 Arena show next week, and Ava promises to find him something to do.

Back at ringside, Lexis King and William Regal make their way out. No Quarter Catch Crew follows. 

Round one kicks off, and the two lock up. They go back and forth with each other, and Dempsey rolls up King. King kicks out and pins Dempsey, but Dempsey bridges up. King then pins him again, but Dempsey kicks out and connects with an uppercut on King. He lands a knee and a right hand on King, but King responds with a dropkick. King pins Dempsey, but Dempsey kicks out and delivers a Northern Lights suplex for the win.

Round One: Dempsey 1-0 King

Round two begins, and Dempsey rocks King with a knee. He wears him down with a submission, but King escapes. Dempsey then tries pinning him multiple times, but King continues to kick out and lands a pair of Monkey Flips. Dempsey sends King crashing out of the ring, and King grabs onto his knee.

Back from the break, King lands a jawbreaker on Dempsey and fires off strikes on him. He follows it up with a back body drop and a back suplex, then levels Dempsey with a superkick as the round comes to a close.

Round Two: Dempsey 1-0 King

King pins Dempsey as round three starts, but Dempsey kicks out and lands a couple strikes on King. He connects with a Dragon Screw and fires off forearms and uppercuts on King in the corner, then lands a pair of Gut Wrench suplexes and follows it up with a Northern Lights suplex. Dempsey goes for a pin, but King kicks out and Dempsey wears him down with a Half Boston Crab. King escapes exchanges fight hands with Dempsey. Regal hands King a pair of brass knuckles, but King refuses to take them. Dempsey then takes advantage and lands a chop block on King before landing a German suplex for the win.

Round Three: Dempsey 2-0 King

Winner (and still): Charlie Dempsey

Zaria then makes her way out to the ring. Brinley Reece is already waiting inside.

The bell rings and the two lock up. Zaria levels Reece with a shoulder tackle, but Reece rocks her with a forearm. Zaria then runs over Reece with a forearm and sends her crashing into the mat. Reece shows the referee her hyperextended arm, but Zaria pops it back in place and fires off shoulders on her midsection. She then lands a splash and backbreaker on Reece before she connects with a German suplex, a spear, and a F5 for the win.

Winner: Zaria

After Zaria defeats Reece, Fatal Influence appears in the crowd. Fallon Henley tells Zaria that she stole her moment when she became new Women's North American Champion at Halloween Havoc, but Roxanne Perez and Cora Jade make their way down the ramp. The two women alongside Fatal Influence surround the ring, but Kelani Jordan, Giulia, and Stephanie Vaquer run down to even the odds. Perez points out that it's still 4 against 5, but Jordynne Grace's music hits and she makes her way out. The ten women then begin brawling with one another, with Grace and Zaria sending Perez crashing on top of Jade and Fatal Influence on the outside.

Nikkita Lyons then makes her way down to the ring. Jordan is already waiting inside.

The bell rings and the two lock up. Jordan looks to level Lyons with an arm drag, but Lyons prevents her from doing so. Jordan responds with a dropkick and a handspring back elbow, then follows it up with a crossbody. Lyons catapults Jordan across the ring, then catapults her into the bottom turnbuckle and sends her crashing into the mat.

Lyons connects with a superkick on Jordan's head, then ascends up the ropes. Adriana Rizzo appears on the top of the ramp, and Lyons becomes distracted. She looks to land a Vader Bomb on Jordan, but Jordan sees her coming and delivers a split legged moonsault for the win.

Winner: Kelani Jordan

After the match, Rizzo attacks Lyons. Jordan looks to pull Rizzo off Lyons, but Rizzo continues beating down Lyons.

Ethan Page then makes his way down to the ring.

Page says he's not done with the NXT Championship, but before he can continue, Ridge Holland makes his way out and says Page has had plenty of chances at the NXT Championship. He says Trick Williams survived Halloween Havoc, but he won't be holding the NXT Championship for much longer and says Bubba Ray Dudley made the right decision by choosing not to team with Williams.

Bubba Ray's music hits and he makes his way out. He says it's time he had a talk with Holland and says in the past 48 hours, he went from not knowing much about Holland to knowing a lot about Holland. He says he knows that Holland is a good rugby player, but his respect ends there because he disrespected him. He says the "NXT" Universe will have to see a lot more from Holland if he ever wants another shot at the NXT Championship, but Holland says no one cares what Bubba Ray thinks anymore now that he's a radio host that sits behind a microphone. He calls Bubba Ray a nostalgia act and tells him to revel in his pride. He says Dave LaGreca will have to soon be looking for a new host because he'll be in the hospital.

Holland and Page then attack Bubba Ray, but Williams' music hits and he runs down to the ring to even the odds. Bubba Ray then grabs a mic and agrees to be Trick Williams' tag team partner next week to take on Holland and Page.

Nathan Frazer and Axiom then make their way out to the ring. We then head backstage and see Rhea Ripley beaten down outside the Performance Center as Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez are spotted leaving. 

Back from the break, Je'Von Evans and Cedric Alexander make their way down to the ring.

Alexander and Axiom begin the action. The bell rings and the two lock up. Alexander wears down Axiom's shoulder with a submission, but Axiom responds with a flapjack to Alexander and Frazer tags in (much to Axiom's frustration). Evans tags in on his side, and Frazer looks to level him with a hurricanrana. Evans lands on his feet, and the pair continue going back and forth with each other.

Frazer slaps Evans, but Evans takes him down and fires off right hands on him. Alexander tags back in and lands a modified missile dropkick on Frazer. He follows it up with a chop to him in the corner and tags in Evans. Frazer lands a back elbow on Evans, then fires off stomps on him in the corner. Axiom tags himself in and begins bickering with Frazer, but Evans takes advantage and lands a superkick on Frazer. He then delivers a dropkick to Axiom that sends him crashing out of the ring and tags in Alexander. Alexander then flies over the top rope to level Axiom on the outside.

Back from the break, Alexander connects with a kick on Axiom's face and tags in Evans as Frazer tags in on his side. Evans flies off the top rope with a clothesline to level Frazer, then looks to take down Axiom. Axiom catches Evans' foot, but Evans sends Axiom crashing into Frazer. Frazer rocks Evans with an enzuigiri, then tags in Axiom. Frazer holds Evans in place for Axiom to land a kick on him off the top rope and goes for a pin, but Evans kicks out.

Axiom looks to fly off the top rope, but Alexander makes the tag in. Alexander sends Axiom crashing into the mat with a sit-out powerbomb and goes for a pin, but Frazer dropkicks Evans into them to break the fall. Evans tags in and delivers a springboard cutter to Axiom. He goes for a pin, but Axiom kicks out. Alexander then tags in and fires off chops on Axiom in the corner before Axiom sits him on the top rope.

Frazer tags in and Axiom lands a Spanish Fly on Alexander. Frazer follows it up with a Phoenix Splash and pins Alexander, but Evas breaks the fall. Wes Lee emerges at ringside with a chair in hand, but Evans connects with a tope suicida to him and brawls with him to the back. Frazer looks to land a Phoenix Splash on Alexander, but Alexander sees him coming. He connects with Lumbar Check on Axiom and delivers a Michinoku Driver to Frazer. He pins Frazer, but Frazer kicks out.

Alexander ascends to the top, but Frazer levels him with a superplex. Axiom and Frazer then deliver the Golden Ratio-Brainbuster combination for the win.

Winners (and still): Nathan Frazer and Axiom
