WWE NXT New Year's Evil Results and Ratings impacted by the Rock, pictured here

WWE NXT New Year’s Evil Results (1/7/25) – The Rock Appears

NXT kicked off 2025 with a special show on Tuesday, January 7. Live from the Shrine Expo Hall in Los Angeles, California, NXT followed up the monumental WWE Raw on Netflix premiere with New Year’s Evil.

The show featured five matches, with three of those being title matches. NXT New Year’s Evil ultimately set the pace for 2025, and kickstarted the road to the Vengeance Day event, which has been confirmed for February 15. All three titles changed hands, giving the title scenes a fresh shake-up for 2025.

Oh, and The Rock made a special appearance right at the end of the show! He thanked the crowd and reassured fans that he would always come back home. Check out what he had to say below but, beyond that, NXT New Year’s Evil results and highlights too.
