The March 17 edition of WWE NXT was, as expected, a chaotic episode with several storylines progressing across the developmental brand and the premium live event.

On the show, during a backstage segment, Interim General Manager, Robert Stone, was chatting with Men’s Sprint Champion, Elio LeFlore. Sean Legacy and Eli Knight broke off their conversation after Legacy was seen on crutches, revealing that he injured his leg in a triple threat match last week and is not medically cleared to compete.

Therefore, he will not be able to compete in the NXT Tag Team Championship to determine the contenders for the NXT Tag Team Championship at Stand & Deliver. The entire tournament was falling apart, with one team eliminated.

Speed ​​champion Elio LeFleur told Robert Stone he could replace the Legacy. All parties agreed to the deal, and it became official that LeFleur and Knight would face Shawn Spears and Niko Vance (The Culling) to advance on the March 24 edition of NXT.

A major title match began in WWE NXT

The developmental brand’s women’s division is one of the most stacked divisions in the entire professional wrestling industry as of late. The Stamford-based promotion has built this week’s triple threat scenario around the NXT Women’s Championship between Saul Rocca, Zaria and Jessie Jayne.

Tonight, NXT began with a triple threat for the NXT Women’s Championship. The entire match was a back and forth battle, and all three women had big moments, drawing attention and showing that the future is in good hands.

Bobot’s throw was crafty. Zarya connected the F5 to her former friend at ringside and was hoping to end her night with a big win. Deadly Impact ruined the party when they dragged the Australian star and got into a brawl with her, giving Jane the perfect opportunity to take advantage of Rocca and pin her to retain her title.

With WWE NXT Stand & Deliver just around the corner, it will be interesting to see what plans the creators have for everyone in the coming weeks.
