Video: NXT New Year’s Evil 2025 Recap

We take a look at New Year’s Evil.


In-Ring: Oba Femi, Tony D’Angelo, Ridge Holland, Eddy Thorpe

NXT Men’s World Champion Oba Femi struts to the ring.

Oba says destiny will always arrive, just like he has arrived.  It is time for him to take his rightful place upon the throne.  People would come out and say they never thought they could do it, but Oba says he knew he would do it.  He said that he was backed by destiny and it wasn’t a catchphrase or a gimmick.  He was backed by destiny when he won the Breakout Tournament, when he won the North American title, when he was the longest reigning North American champion, and when he won the NXT Champoinship.  Oba says this is all his and he will rule it the way he wants.

Oba says Trick put a lot of hard work into this title, but just like every guy back there, Trick had a ceiling, but Oba has no ceiling.  He says Eddy is a piece of work.  He is a rat and deceiver.  He is like gum on the bottom of your shoe.  He never goes away.  Oba gives Eddy his final warning.  Go bother someone else in the locker room.

Tony D’Angelo makes his way to the ring.  He congratulates Oba on his win and he says Oba is in the big seat now.  Tony says he was in the back and he was listening to what Oba accomplished.  He talks about Oba being the longest reigning champion.  But it is Tony 2 and Oba 1.  Oba is the ruler now, but remember he is the one man to defeat you.  When he decides to go for that championship, we know he will walk out of the ring as the double title Don.

Oba says he sees that Tony has found his confidence.  Didn’t you get your ass dropped last week?  You might worry about the North American title more.

Tony says no one gets one over the Don without consequences.  He says he will take care of Ridge Holland.

Ridge Holland’s music plays and he says Tony is in better shape than the last time he saw him.  Ridge has a belated Christmas gift for him.

Tony says he will come and sign it for him.

Roxanne Perez walks through HALLWAY, but a vehicle arrives in the Most Dangerous Parking Lot and they park in the middle of the lot.  We see boots as we go to commercial.

We are back and next week, Tony D’Angelo defends the Men’s North American title against Ridge Holland.  Oba Femi defends the NXT Men’s World Champoinship against Eddy Thorpe.

Roxanne Perez is in the ring.

She says when she won the title the second time, no one believed she would hold the title for 276 days.  She mentions nine title defenses.  She says she was making history.  All she wanted to do was make women’s wrestling special.  She wanted to make a women’s division that could main event and make you proud.  She drew all of the best women in the world because this is the best women’s division.  She says she does not have her title because Giulia was the better woman.  She congratulates Giulia.  She congratulates all of you because that was what you wanted.

She says what is sadder is the state of the women’s division without her as champion.  Do you think Giulia will take it to the heights she did?  No one will love this division more than me.  You can kiss all of the talk of NXT having the best women’s division because without her it is lost.  NXT doesn’t deserve her.  You don’t deserve her.  It won’t be the same.  You needed the Four Horsewomen but this generation only needed one.

Bayley’s music plays and she makes her way to the ring.

Bayley says she is excited to be back.  She knew that Roxanne was going to be disappointed about her lose.  You are at a crossroads.  You can continue to act this way or you could evolve.

Roxanne says she didn’t ask for advice.

Bayley says you have always been asking for advice, as far back as when you were 14 in Austin, Texas.  She says the division will be fine.  Kelani, Jaida, and Cora will be fine without her.  She says we are bigger than that.  Your title reign was amazing.

Roxanne says Bayley is just like Natalya and CM Punk.  She hates that Bayley is saying the same things to her.  You are acting the way that everyone she looked up to.  You set records, but Roxanne says she broke them.  You were her role model, but Roxanne says she could be Bayley’s.

Bayley says the biggest difference is that you will be stuck here while Bayley says she will be going to Wrestlemania after she beats Tiffany Stratton on Friday.
