A graphic of the Casket match for the NXT Women's North American Championship

NXT Revenge Week Two Review (4/21/26) – Saying Goodbye

Meanwhile, backstage

  • The Vanity Project was worried about Blake Monroe and the Casket match.
  • Shiloh Hill promised Tatum Paxley that he would take care of the Vanity Project.
  • Lizzy Rain will debut next week
  • DarkState will have another chance at the NXT North American Championship next week. Saquon Shugars asked Robert Stone, and he will get this chance.
  • Lexis King and Birth Right were about to celebrate. EK Prosper confronted King, and Dorian Van Dux came to support him. Both will face Birth Right next week.
  • Kendal Grey Chronicle.
  • Ricky Saints attacked Shiloh Hill backstage. Robert Stone made the match for next week.
  • As Robert Stone wanted to talk to him, NXT Champion Tony D’Angelo received a gift with the Japanese “war” symbol on top. Keanu Carver arrived; it was not a gift from him.

Nygma Says

What an episode! Women rocked the house, with a fabulous Casket match and a fantastic Last Woman Standing. Keanu Carver is the new NXT Powerhouse. DarkState is on its way to explode. My only worry, outside of the Vanity Project, is Izzi Dame claiming an NXT Women’s title match when so many are not only better but more worthy of it.

Then, we now have to face another reality. Joe Hendry, Ethan Page, and Sol Ruca are main roster-bound. Jacy Jayne, with or without Fatal Influence, and probably Blake Monroe, will follow. Every WrestleMania is a moment of change in the life of NXT. Once seeds of talents have grown up to become magnificent ones, they have to leave for a new soil. And they become seeds again.

Well, this new era of NXT is as exciting as it can be surprising. I’ll see you next week as I keep on exploring the NXT world through the NXTNA “cold war.” Till then, may the Nygma be with you.
