This week’s episode of WWE NXT will provide the fallout from Battleground. The NXT Superstars return to the WWE Performance Center this week. This is the May 27 WWE NXT preview.
WWE NXT Battleground 2025 was a loaded event and, at the top of the headlines, Trick Williams is the new TNA World Champion. It will be intriguing to see what he does first as the newly-minted champion.
Focusing on this week, we are set to have at least four matches, with two of those being title matches. Fans will also see the in-ring debut of LFG season one winner, Jasper Troy. Here is all you need to know ahead of the May 27 NXT.
WWE NXT Full Card
- NXT Women’s Championship Match: Stephanie Vaquer (c) vs. Jacy Jayne
- NXT North American Championship Match: Ricky Saints (c) vs. Ethan Page
- Singles Match: Mike Santana vs. Tavion Heights
- Singles Match: Jaida Parker vs. Tatum Paxley

Ricky Saints Defends Title Against Ethan Page
Ethan Page has been a thorn in Ricky Saints’ side since he became the NXT North American Champion. On the May 27 NXT, Saints and Page will meet once more, with the gold on the line.
At Battleground, Page tried to pull a fast one on Saints, but the champion got the best of the exchange. This Tuesday, will Page come with a better plan to pick up the win, or will Saints end this chapter once and for all?
Why wait for Tuesday?!?

Mike Santana Enters A WWE Ring
TNA’s Mike Santana was at Battleground, and he made it clear that he wants the next crack at the TNA World Championship. This was, of course, before Williams won the gold. Before that though, Santana has a match scheduled for the May 27 NXT.
After exchanging some heated words with Charlie Dempsey, No Quarter Catch Crew’s Tavion Heights put forward the offer. This will be the first time that Santana steps into a WWE ring, and this could be the chance to introduce himself to the WWE Universe. This could also be the chance to prove his worth as a first challenger for Williams.
