Last night’s episode of WWE NXT Gold Rush saw a night where championships changed hands, challengers emerged, and the field for the Iron Survivor Challenge began to take shape.
In the opening bout, challenger Sean Legacy came out swinging, with sharp kicks, a Manhattan Drop/Atomic Drop, and a standing moonsault, putting Jackson Drake on the defensive early. Legacy nearly stole it with a moonsault fallaway slam, but Drake weathered the storm. With a double-knee gutbuster and a diving knee across the back of Legacy’s neck, Drake secured the three-count to hold on to his title.
Fallon Henley and Zaria battled to a draw in regulation, then plunged into sudden-death after outside interference. In an emphatic finish, Henley scored with a Shining Wizard into a Fameasser and grabbed the vacant belt.
John Cena announced the competitors in both the men’s Iron Survivor Challenge match for Deadline on December 6 in San Antonio, Texas.
In a chaotic triple threat, TNA Knockouts champion Kelani Jordan and challengers Jordynne Grace and Lei Ying Lee had their moments. But it was Lee who landed a precision falling spin-kick into both opponents, pinned Jordan and walked out as the new Knockouts Champion.
Kendal Grey fought Lainey Reid’s aggressive start in their WWE Evolve Women’s Title match, and survived a Blue Thunder Driver attempt and, despite ringside interference from Fatal Influence, locked in the Shades of Grey after a back superplex to keep her belt.
Cena was back again to announce the women who will be involved in their Iron Survivor Challenge match for Deadline.
In a hard-fought Iron Survivor qualifier with Trick Williams, Myles Borne countered Williams’ power with speed, dropkicks, atomic drops and a “Borne Again” finish on the floor. With that win, he joins Je’Von Evans, Leon Slater,Joe Hendry and Dion Lennox as the five male competitors in the upcoming Iron Survivor Challenge.
