WWE NXT Results (8/13/2024):

The show opens up with a video recapping last week’s NXT The Great American Bash Week 2 special. Vic Joseph and WWE Hall of Famer Booker T then welcomes us to the show.

We then see Sarah Schreiber trying to catch up with Wes Lee. Schreiber asks Lee why he betrayed his brothers. Lee says it was time to take back what’s his. WWE NXT Champion “All Ego” Ethan Page then grabs the mic from Schreiber and makes his way down to the ring to address the WWE Universe.

Ethan Page starts off by saying fans desperately wanted to see Oro Mensah dethrone him as NXT Champion, but he has the skills to back up his nickname of “All Ego”. Page then says the era of “All Ego” will continue and no one will be able to dethrone him including Wes Lee, Trick Williams and Pete Dunne. Joe Hendry’s music then hits and he makes his way down to the ring. Hendry tells Page that he understands why he thinks he’s on top of the NXT roster and says he became the talk of WWE when he won the NXT Championship. Hendry then says that all changed when he arrived on the scene and Page’s ego says one thing while the reality is completely different. Page then tells Hendry to take his victory from last week and go back to TNA Wrestling, then questions why Hendry is still in NXT. Hendry then says like everyone else, his goal is to win the NXT Championship. Page then says everyone believes in Hendry except for himself and he rather believes that Hendry’s song makes him sick to his stomach every time he hears it and he’s in his 14th minute of his 15 minutes of his fame. Page then warns Hendry that if he comes after his NXT Championship, he will prove that Hendry is simply a flash in the pan. Hendry then tells Page that he’s been grinding for ten years and made believers of everyone he’s encountered and when he dethrones Page as champion, he will take the NXT Championship around the world as his song says. Page then jumps out of the ring and looks to head to the back before Wes Lee appears out of nowhere and superkicks Hendry. Lee then leaves Hendry laying.

We then head to the back, where we see Charlie Dempsey sparring with Myles Borne. Wren Sinclair then shows up to wish Dempsey luck in his upcoming title match. Sinclair also talks about how Tavion Heights looks like he’s having fun in Japan wrestling for Pro Wrestling Noah.

Wes Lee starts off by saying his betrayal of The Rascalz shocked the world and himself. Lee then says he was sure that he and Zach Wentz would win the WWE NXT Tag Team Championship last week, but Wentz let him down again. Lee then says his anger with Wentz dates back to two years ago when he broke up MSK and everyone questioned if he would be able to become a singles competitor.
