WWE NXT Results 4/22 - Stephanie Vaquer Defends NXT Women's Championship, Two Other Titles On The Line

Welcome to Wrestling Inc.'s live coverage for "WWE NXT" on April 22, 2025, coming to you live from the Fontainebleau in Las Vegas, Nevada!

After retaining her NXT Women's Championship against Giulia, Jaida Parker, and Jordynne Grace in a Fatal Four-Way Match at "NXT" Stand & Deliver this past Saturday, Stephanie Vaquer will be putting her title on the line once again as she defends against Roxanne Perez. Perez has been on a losing streak since coming up short in the 2025 Women's Elimination Chamber match on March 1, and has come up short against the likes of the aforementioned Grace, Kelani Jordan, and Tiffany Stratton in singles competition.

Judgment Day's Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez will be putting the WWE Women's Tag Team Championship on the line against Tatum Paxley and Gigi Dolin. Not only did Paxley and Dolin secure the opportunity to challenge for the Women's Tag Team Championship by emerging victorious in a Fatal Four-Way Tag Team Elimination Match on the Countdown to Stand & Deliver pre-show, but Morgan and Rodriguez regained the Women's Tag Team Championship during last night's edition of "WWE Raw" from Becky Lynch and Lyra Valkyria after being dethroned by them the night before at Night Two of WrestleMania 41.

Additionally, Lexis King will be defending the NXT Heritage Cup against a mystery opponent who has yet to be revealed. King has his Heritage Cup disappear from him at the hands of Penn & Teller as part of a magic trick they performed on him backstage at Stand & Deliver, but the latter two men later returned it to the former on the condition he put it on the line against a mystery opponent.

We are live! The show kicks off with a video recapping the events of Stand & Deliver this past Saturday.

Vic Joseph, Booker T, and Corey Graves greet audiences at home as Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez then make their way out to the ring. Tatum Paxley and Gigi Dolin follow.

Morgan and Paxley begin the action. The bell rings and Morgan fires off right hands on Paxley in the corner. She fires off stomps on her in the corner, then tags in Rodriguez. Rodriguez dumps Paxley across the ring, then tags Morgan back in. Morgan and Rodriguez double team on Paxley, but Dolin tags in. Dolin lands a kick on Rodriguez's head, then looks to fly off the ropes. Rodriguez catches her, then sends her crashing into the mat. The action spills out of the ring, and Paxley flies off the apron with a moonsault to level Morgan and Rodriguez.

Back from the break, Paxley lands a jawbreaker on Rodriguez. Morgan tags back in and delivers a boot to Paxley's midsection, then follows it up with The Three Amigos. Rodriguez tags in and gets Paxley up in a delayed vertical suplex, but Paxley escapes by firing off knees on Rodriguez.

Dolin and Morgan tag in, and Dolin levels Morgan with a clothesline. Paxley tags back in, but Rodriguez levels her and Dolin with a double clothesline. Dolin tags in and hits a crossbody on Rodriguez off the middle rope, and Paxley follows it up with a 450 Splash off the ropes. Paxley then tags back in and rocks Rodriguez with a double enzuigiri alongside Dolin. Dolin tags in, but Morgan connects with Oblivion for the win.

Winners (and still): Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez

Ricky Saints then makes his way down to the ring.

Saints says he kicked off WrestleMania 41 weekend with a bang when he successfully defended his North American Championship against Ethan Page. He says he made good on his promise at Stand & Deliver, and lived up to everything he said he was going to do in "NXT".

Lexis King's music hits, and he makes his way out. He tells Saints that he spent his weekend in Las Vegas looking for his NXT Heritage Cup after it disappeared at the hands of Penn & Teller, and Saints questions what this has to do with him. King threatens to take Saints' North American Championship from him if he doesn't leave the ring, and Saints tells King that he does a lot of taking without actually being able to back it up. King calls Saints delusional and challenges Saints to defend his North American Championship against him in a singles match next week. He says that he'll put the Heritage Cup on the line as well in a Winner Takes All Match, and Saints accepts the challenge.

Noam Dar then makes his way out to the ring, revealing himself as King's mystery opponent in the upcoming match. 

The bell rings and Dar cinches in an Ankle Lock on King. King escapes, but Dar fires off a kick on his chest and follows it up with a dropkick. He goes for a pin, but King kicks out. Dar then wears King down with a submission, but King fires off kicks on his head and follows it up with a series of overhand chops. Dar fires off strikes on King, then catches him with a pair of kicks to his midsection. King levels Dar with a thrust kick and ascends to the top rope, then looks to hit a Swanton Bomb. Dar rolls out of the way, then levels King with a spinning back elbow for the win.

Winner (and new): Noam Dar

Fatal Influence then makes their way down to the ring. Thea Hail follows.

The bell rings and the two lock up. Hail delivers an overhand chop to Henley, then rolls her up. Henley kicks out and returns the favor, but Hail kicks out and catches Henley with a boot. She follows it up with a hurricanrana and a pair of back elbows, then levels Henley with a clothesline. Henley delivers a T-Bone suplex to Hail and holds her in place on the outside as Jacy Jayne looks to land a boot on Hail while the referee is distracted by Jazmyn Nyx. Hail moves out of the way and Jayne accidentally hits Henley. She then clocks Nyx on the apron and cinches in the Kimura Lock on Henley for the win.

Winner: Thea Hail

Oba Femi then makes his way out to the ring. 

Femi says he did exactly what he said he'd do in his defense of the NXT Championship against Trick Williams and Je'Von Evans. Evans says he may have called Evans a child and said he couldn't hang in the ring, but he brought it on Saturday at Stand & Deliver and gives him a shout out.

Williams' music hits and he makes his way down to the ring. He demands a one-on-one match for the NXT Championship, but Joe Hendry's music cuts him off as he makes his case. Hendry says Williams has changed since he was last in "NXT", then says while Williams used to soak in the cheers of fans, he now soaks in self pity. He then asks Williams if he's stopped to think that Williams is the reason that he hasn't won back the NXT Championship.

Williams tells Hendry that he's an outsider who doesn't belong in "NXT", but Hendry responds by reminding Williams that while he may have lost to Randy Orton at WrestleMania 41, he did it in front of a huge crowd. He then says he's come to talk to Femi about the NXT Championship and stares down Femi, but Williams pulls the two men apart. Hendry and Femi clock Williams, then dump him out of the ring.

We then head over to a tense meeting between Channing "Stacks" Lorenzo and Luca Crusifino in the middle of the Nevada desert.

Back from the break, we see Trick Williams destroying the backstage area.

Back at ringside, Myles Borne, Wren Sinclair, and Je'Von Evans all make their way out. DarkState follows.

Dion Lennox and Borne begin the action. The bell rings and the two lock up. They go back and forth with one another, but Evans tags in. Lennox levels Evans with a right hand, but Evans responds with a pair of hurricanranas to him. Osiris Griffin tags in and sends Evans crashing into the corner. Evans looks to respond with a tope suicida to Griffin and Lennox on the outside, but Griffin intercepts him. Borne then flies over the top rope to level Griffin and Lennox.

Griffin bodyslams Evans back in the ring and tags in Lennox. Borne tags in on his side, and Borne connects with an uppercut on him. He follows it up with a dropkick as Charlie Dempsey and Tavion Heights appear on the top of the ramp. Evans tags back in, but Lennox whips him into the mat and hits a clothesline on him in the corner. He then sends Evans crashing into the mat and goes for a pin, but Evans kicks out.

Lennox fires off right hands on Evans, then whips him into the corner and tags in Griffin. Griffin levels Evans with a right hand, but Evans looks to land a crossbody on Griffin off the ropes. Griffin catches him and delivers a Fallaway Slam to him, then sends him crashing into the top turnbuckle face first and whips him into the corner. Lennox tags in and fires off right hands on Evans' midsection as Griffin holds him in place. Griffin tags in and connects with an over the shoulder powerslam on Evans. He goes for a pin, but Borne breaks the fall.

Griffin wears Evans down with a submission hold, then looks to land a splash on Evans in the corner. Evans moves out of the way and Griffin tags himself in, but Borne tags in and delivers powerslams to Lennox and Griffin. He lands a belly-to-belly suplex on Lennox and gets him up on his shoulders, then delivers a variation of a shoulderbreaker to him. Griffin tags in and lands a double powerbomb on Borne with Lennox for the win.

Winners: DarkState

We then head backstage and see Yoshiki Inamura say goodbye to Ava before he heads back to Pro Wrestling NOAH. He discloses to Ava that he feels bad about being unable to win the NXT Tag Team Championship with Josh Briggs as Briggs walks in, prompting her to offer them another shot at the title next week.

We then head over to a video of Tony D'Angelo visiting Adriana Rizzo in her hotel room as she packs up her things. The two realize together that something is up with Crusifino and reflect on Channing "Stacks" Lorenzo's betrayal of The Family. 

Roxanne Perez then makes her way down to the ring. Stephanie Vaquer follows.

The bell rings and the two lock up. Perez whips Vaquer into the mat, but Vaquer pins Perez. Perez counters into a pinfall of her own, but Vaquer kicks out and hits a back suplex on Perez. Perez drags the ring skirt into the ring as Vaquer pulls her off the apron, then rakes her eyes as the referee fixes the ring skirt. She begins targeting Vaquer's hand and wrist, but Vaquer rolls up Perez. Perez kicks out.

Perez and Vaquer exchange right hands with one another, but Vaquer lands a crossbody on Perez over the top rope and onto the entrance ramp. She dumps Perez back in the ring and connects with a meteora on her in the corner, then sends her head repeatedly bouncing off the mat. Perez lands a thrust kick on Vaquer, but Vaquer connects with a backbreaker on Perez and ascends up the ropes. Perez trips Vaquer and delivers a hurricanrana to her, then cinches in a crossface but Vaquer escapes. The two women take turns pinning one another, but Vaquer lands a Dragon Screw on Perez out of the corner. She follows it up with the Package Backbreaker for the win.

Winner (and still): Stephanie Vaquer

After the match, Giulia's music hits and she makes her way out. She stares down Vaquer from the entrance ramp as we see Jordynne Grace watching the pair from the crowd, Vaquer holds up her NXT Women's Championship, and the show goes off the air.
