On tap, we have a title match, an Underground match, and two other cannot-miss matches.

This is a major opportunity for Ruca, as she could claim her first championship within WWE. But Green, ever the resourceful champion, will do all she can to keep the gold.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>It can be expected that Piper Niven, who is Green&#8217;s tag team partner, will also lend her strengths to keep the gold. For Niven, Ruca&#8217;s own tag team partner, Zaria, will be available. This is quite an intriguing match, and it could put some really great dynamics against each other.<\/div>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">.<a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ImChelseaGreen?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@ImChelseaGreen<\/a> will defend her Women&#39;s United States Championship against <a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/SolRucaWWE?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@SolRucaWWE<\/a> THIS TUESDAY on <a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/WWENXT?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#WWENXT<\/a>! <\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udcfa 8ET\/7CT on <a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TheCW?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@TheCW<\/a> <a  href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/iAwJ18pqOX\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/iAwJ18pqOX<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; WWE NXT (@WWENXT) <a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/WWENXT\/status\/1900970250679541963?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">March 15, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<h2>Trick Williams and Eddy Thorpe Meet In NXT Underground Match<\/h2>\n<p>Trick Williams and Eddy Thorpe have been at it for a number of weeks now.
