The following week, they agreed to have this match, and it immediately became one of the most anticipated of the Roadblock card.<\/p>\n<p>Moose is the current TNA X-Division Champion and, despite being one of the most notable names in professional wrestling, he has never been signed to WWE. As a result, he has never held WWE gold. This was a chance for Moose to shock the entire industry in a major way by immediately claiming NXT&#8217;s top gold.<\/p>\n<p>Femi is most remembered for his dominant reign as the NXT North American Champion. More impressive than that is how quickly he achieved that. His NXT Championship reign, although still under 100 days in, is already moving in that same dominant trajectory.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"qme\" dir=\"ltr\">\ud83d\ude32\ud83d\ude32\ud83d\ude32\ud83d\ude32\ud83d\ude32\ud83d\ude32<a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/WWERoadblock?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#WWERoadblock<\/a> <a  href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/TjbuAJAele\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/TjbuAJAele<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; WWE (@WWE) <a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/WWE\/status\/1899626925145915762?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">March 12, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<h3><em>The full WWE NXT Roadblock results can be found <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2025\/03\/11\/wwe-nxt-roadblock-live-results-3-11-25\/\" target=\"_self\">here<\/a>.<\/em><\/h3>\n<p><strong>More From LWOS Pro Wrestling<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Header photo \u2013 WWE \u2013<\/span><\/em>\u00a0<em>Stay tuned to the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">Last Word on Pro Wrestling<\/a> for more on WWE NXT Roadblock, Oba Femi, Moose and other stories from around the world of wrestling, as they develop.
