Fatal 4-Way For NXT Title Shot, Women’s North American Title Match, Hank & Tank vs. OTM Set For 12/16 WWE NXT

Updated NXT lineup.

The next installment of WWE NXT on The CW is scheduled for December 16th. There are two championship matches advertised for the show.

The 2025 men’s Iron Survivor Challenge winner Je’Von Evans opted to request his NXT Championship match against Oba Femi on the 12/9 NXT instead of getting the bout at New Year’s Evil on January 6th. Femi ended up retaining the belt after Ricky Saints cost Evans the match. As for Femi’s title defense at New Year’s Evil, there will be a Fatal 4-Way match on the 12/16 NXT featuring Dion Lennox, Joe Hendry, Myles Borne, and TNA X Division Champion Leon Slater. The winner will challenge Femi for the NXT Championship on 1/6.

There will be a Women’s North American Title defense as the champion, Blake Monroe, defends against Thea Hail. Hail emerged from a multitude of competitors who came out for Monroe’s open challenge on 12/9. The open challenge never got underway, but Hail tapped Monroe out in the ring.

Also on the bill for 12/16 is a tag team bout that will see Hank Walker and Tank Ledger versus O.T.M. (Bronco Nima & Lucien Price).
