Karmen Petrovic and Arianna Grace win Heatwave pre-show
Arianna Grace and Karmen Petrovic fought against Jacy Jayne and Jazmyn Nyx to kick off NXT Heatwave. The match began with Jayne forcing Grace into the corner who countered with an arm drag. Nyx tagged in but couldn’t take advantage of Grace. Eventually, Grace makes the tag, allowing Petrovic to land the jumping knee Hart Attack. Jazmyn broke it up before attempting the O’Connor roll. Petrovic countered with another roll-up for a pinfall win.
Roxanne Perez retained the NXT Women’s title
The penultimate match of NXT Heatwave saw Roxanne Perez lay down her women’s title against Lola Vice. After exchanging some blows in the ring, Perez cleared the commentary desk before hitting Vice with a Pop Rox on it. Vice kicked out leading to Perez locking in a cross-face. After Vice managed to force a break by reaching the ropes, Perez landed a series of Pop Rox to retain the women’s title.
Ethan Page becomes WWE NXT Champion!
Within less than two months of joining the WWE’s development brand as a part of the official roster, Ethan Page won the NXT Men’s title at Heatwave last week. He had already lost one title match against Trick Williams the previous month but Page remained focused in the five-man title match at Heatwave.
