The first week of action will see two titles on the line, as well as several other matches. With the 2024 edition of the WWE Draft coming up, the <em>NXT<\/em> stars will be looking to prove themselves, and this show is as high-stakes as it can be. Here is all you need to know ahead of the April 23 edition of <em>NXT<\/em>.<\/p>\n<h3>WWE NXT Full Match Card:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Ilja Dragunov (c) vs. Trick Williams &#8211; NXT Championship Match<\/li>\n<li>Roxanne Perez (c) vs. Lyra Valkyria vs. Tatum Paxley &#8211; NXT Women&#8217;s Championship Triple-Threat Match<\/li>\n<li>The D&#8217;Angelo Family (Tony D&#8217;Angelo, Channing &#8216;Stacks&#8217; Lorenzo &amp; Luca Crusifino) vs. No Quarter Catch Crew (Charlie Dempsey, Damon Kemp &amp; Myles Borne) &#8211; Six-Man Tag Team Match<\/li>\n<li>Sol Ruca vs. Blair Davenport &#8211; Beach Brawl<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Trick Williams Cannot Miss Against Ilja Dragunov<\/h3>\n<p>A massive title fight with high stakes is set to headline week one of <em>Spring Breakin&#8217;<\/em>. <strong>Ilja Dragunov<\/strong> has granted <strong>Trick Williams<\/strong> a rematch for the NXT Championship but, this time, Williams just cannot miss. Should Williams lose this match, he will be forced to leave <em>NXT<\/em>. This is not ideal for Williams who has seen his stock within NXT rise in recent months and is on the brink of greatness.<\/p>\n<p>For Dragunov, this is a way to look out for himself and make sure to vanquish his toughest challenger for good. This match, regardless of the outcome, will change the entire landscape of NXT moving forward.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Trick Williams defeats Carmelo Hayes inside a steel cage: NXT highlights, April 16, 2024\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/JN9mTra5rwQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3>Roxanne Perez Defends Gold In Triple Threat<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Roxanne Perez<\/strong> has barely just passed two weeks into her second reign as the NXT Women&#8217;s Champion, and she faces quite a challenge ahead. On week one of <em>Spring Breakin&#8217;<\/em>, Perez finds herself in the crossfire of a friendship-turned-bitter rivalry, and her gold could be the collateral damage.<\/p>\n<p>Former champion <strong>Lyra Valkyria<\/strong> and <strong>Tatum Paxley<\/strong> will both serve as challengers to Perez, as she defends her title in a triple threat. With this match being extremely volatile, this will be a battle of who can keep a cool head so as to walk out of <em>Spring Breakin&#8217;<\/em> the victor.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Lyra Valkyria seeks payback on Tatum Paxley: NXT highlights, April 16, 2024\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/QmaiiFaEoXI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3>Sol Ruca And Blair Davenport Meet In A Beach Brawl<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Sol Ruca<\/strong> and <strong>Blair Davenport<\/strong> are set to meet in a beach brawl. The two had a previous match on the April 2 edition of <em>NXT<\/em>, and this will be the rematch between the two. Seemingly being polar opposites, the two have taken issue with each other. Their rematch will have a different vibe, as it will be a beach brawl.<\/p>\n<p>They look to resolve their building rivalry so that they can focus on the NXT Women&#8217;s North American Championship, which has a future that remains unclear at present.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Sol Ruca vs. Blair Davenport: NXT highlights, April 2, 2024\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/HuZmULjxNvE?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3>More From LWOS Pro Wrestling<\/h3>\n<p><em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Header photo \u2013 WWE \u2013 Stay tuned to the\u00a0<\/span><\/em><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\"><em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Last Word on Pro Wrestling<\/span><\/em><\/a><em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0for more on this and other stories from around the world of wrestling, as they develop.
