WWE NXT Review (6/2/26) – No Peace Without War

Jackson Drake, never alone

Before the match, EK Prosper had some words of encouragement for Tate Wilder when Kam Hendrix hadn’t. Tate Wilder took some risks, but it backfired once again as he overextended himself against Jackson Drake. Myka Lockwood proved to be a key difference maker for Drake as she caught one of Wilder’s high-flying moves and power bombed onto the steel steps and the ring apron. That allowed Drake to hit a huge 450 Splash to win the match and continue his hot streak.

Who’s next for Lola Vice?

Lola Vice said that she did what she said she would do and knocked out Izzi Dame. She proved that she is the total package. She is undeniable, and it doesn’t matter who the challenger is. She’ll prove the doubters wrong. Vice asked who was next. Kelani Jordan came out and asked if it was finally time for her. Jordan said that she has made it impossible for Vice to deny her any longer. The ones who applauded Vice’s success couldn’t wait to criticize hers.

Kendal Grey came out with Wren Sinclair on a crutch. She reminded Jordan and Vice that she pinned both of them. Grey said they have unfinished business, so she is next. She added that she has a receipt for what Jordan did to her friend. Vice interrupted them; Jordan and Grey will wrestle next week, and the winner will face her at the Great American Bash. Jordan pushed Vice, who inadvertently hit Kendal Grey.

#AndSTILL, Mr. Speed Lexis King

Lexis King continues to prove that he is, as he calls himself, “The fastest man alive,” by successfully defending his Speed Title. The newcomer Romeo Moreno came incredibly close, but one Coronation DDT allowed the champion to retain.
