NXT Results — May 26, 2026

WWE Performance Center, Orlando, FL

Lola Vice retained the NXT Women's Championship against Izzi Dame, surviving interference and a referee bump to finish the match with a Spinning Backfist, which keeps Vice in place as the company pushes her as a protected champion.

Main Results

Romeo Moreno won his Speed Tournament match against Nathan Frazer to become the number one contender for the Speed Championship, positioning him as a new singles threat. Kam Hendrix interrupted a face-off between NXT Champion Tony D'Angelo and Naraku, setting up Hendrix as the challenger for D'Angelo's title next week. Shawn Spears' steel chair attack on OTM canceled The Culling versus OTM tag match and kept momentum with Spears' factional chaos. Shiloh Hill beat Charlie Dempsey and accepted Tristan Angels' Mr. NXT pageant challenge, adding a character angle for Hill going forward.

What Stood Out

The night was less about surprising title changes and more about NXT reshuffling challengers and protecting established champions, with Lola Vice kept strong while new names like Romeo Moreno and Kam Hendrix were elevated into title pictures. DarkState's continued aggression, capped by a backstage attack on Myles Borne and Tavion Heights, signals they will be used as the primary muscle to disrupt multiple programs rather than a single title chase.

Fast Takeaway

Social coverage is focused on Romeo Moreno's sudden rise as the Speed Title contender and the D'Angelo versus Hendrix title match announced for next week, which gives NXT a clear short term main event storyline. The canceled Culling versus OTM tag match and DarkState's ambush will have people talking about booking priorities and whether NXT is leaning harder into faction warfare than traditional singles pushes.
