WWE NXT WarGames Results For December 5, 2021

It’s the festive season and WWE is bringing us a special gift in the form of WarGames! And Ringside News has you covered with live play-by-play results coverage. Start time for WarGames is at 7:30 PM EST for the Kick-Off Show. Match-by-match highlights and results from the show will take place on this very page. Feel free to leave any reactions in the comment section below.

As always, the show will feature two WarGames matches. The main event will see Team 2.0 face Team Black & Gold to see if the youth can overcome the veterans of the brand. And while it isn’t being branded as such, the women’s match is quite similar with Toxic Attraction facing Raquel Gonzalez, Io Shirai, Cora Jade, and Kay Lee Ray.

The WarGames are the focal point of tonight’s show but they aren’t the only matches. Cameron Grimes will face Duke Hudson in a hair-vs-hair match, Imperium will defend the Tag Team Titles against Kyle O’Reilly and Von Wagner, and Roderick Strong battles Joe Gacy with the Cruiserweight Championship on the line.

And that’s the preview for tonight’s NXT WarGames. Our live coverage will begin from 7:30PM right here. Let us know if you’re excited about any of it and remember to hit the refresh link below and enjoy the show!

Kick-Off Show

Sam Roberts and McKenzie Mitchell are on the stage to welcome us to NXT WarGames, then run down all the matches for tonight’s show.

We see a video package for the men’s WarGames match. Mitchell says it’s hard to argue against the Black and Gold Team but Sam Roberts reckons the new boys are young and hungry enough. A video plays from last Tuesday where the veterans talked after Gargano lost the ladder match against Bron Breakker; LA Knight talks-up his teammates and their accolades, saying they’ve all paid their dues and on Sunday the four of them will stomp respect into the new blood.

Team 2.0 are backstage and Andre Chase appears, telling them they need to talk strategy and have a game plan. He says they need him on the outside of the cage. Breakker appears behind him and says he’s not the one calling the shots around here. They tell him to get out and fist bump each other. Back to Mitchell and Roberts and they’re split on who they think will win tonight.

Mitchell and Roberts discuss the Hair-Vs-Hair Match and they’re standing in the ring with a barbershop chair, then move on to talk about Joe Gacy Vs. Roderick Strong. Roberts says Gacy has been getting treated unfairly, he’s only trying to make NXT a less toxic and problematic place. They cut to the hosts of The Bump, who make their predictions for tonight’s show.
