Sports. Honestly. Since 2011

At NXT Revenge Week One, Lola Vice retained the NXT Women's Championship, but Kendal Grey made her presence felt

NXT Revenge Week One Review (4/14/26) – Implode, Explode

The Nygma’s View

Unhinged Kelani Jordan

Kelani Jordan exacted payback on her rival, Jaida Parker, as she picked up a major one-on-one victory. Neither Superstar held back in their fury as the action spilled outside at one point, leading to a devastating double clothesline that left both competitors down. Jordan began targeting Parker’s knee, compromising her lower half, and leaving her desperate to try and find a way to win without using it. That task proved to be too difficult as her Hipnotic attack sent her crashing into an exposed turnbuckle, allowing Jordan to hit her Split Legged Moonsault for the win.

Guitarproof Carver

Joe Hendry’s music seemed to be Keanu Carver’s favorite. Joe Hendry was about to offer a concert. He confessed that losing the NXT Championship meant asking himself a lot of questions. Should he stop? Should he quit? “Joe says no.” He started to sing when Keanu Carver arrived to destroy Hendry. A guitar smash on Carver’s back didn’t break him. Security came, but Carver destroyed them, too.

Impressive Kali Armstrong

Kali Armstrong showed out in her NXT debut by taking down a very game Skylar Raye. Raye withstood Armstrong’s early barrage, but Armstrong’s combination of power and speed was too much to overcome. With Raye staggering, Armstrong crushed her with the Kali Connection to mark a successful debut.

About Steph Franchomme

Steph, for Stephanie, is not only eNYGMAtic, charismatic, but also “très chic.” Living in France, her birth country, she broke the language barrier to become a respected writer and interviewer on many wrestling promotions. She has developed a very special bond with TNA Wrestling over time to the point of becoming an Authority on the company. The French Nygma, as she loves to call herself, has been a wrestling writer and editor for nearly a decade for SteelChair Magazine/Wrestling SC, TWM and Distortion Media. She has interviewed hundreds of wrestlers from WWE, MLW, TNA, NXT, AEW, and many more promotions. The Nygma is now the new “Authority” on TNA Wrestling and NXT for Last Word on Pro Wrestling. The writer/editor also runs @3WWrestling, her own platform.
