WWE NXT: Showdown – NXT vs. TNA Takes Over 

Orlando Tonight!

Posted on October 7, 2025 by Drake’s Nexus

The war is on, and the lines have been drawn!

Tonight, from the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, the black-and-gold brand steps into the fire as NXT collides with TNA in a high-stakes event known simply as SHOWDOWN. This is more than just another Tuesday night — this is a brand warfare spectacle that could reshape alliances, titles, and maybe even wrestling history.

The CW will be broadcasting the chaos live at 8 PM ET, with the world watching to see which brand reigns supreme.

Let’s dive into the match card and what makes this crossover event so electric.

💪 Team NXT vs. Team TNA – Men’s Elimination Match

Team NXT: Ricky Saints, Trick Williams, Je’Von Evans & Myles Borne

vs.

Team TNA: Mike Santana, Moose, Frankie Kazarian & Leon Slater

Special Guest Referee: Joe Hendry

When pride and bragging rights are on the line, there’s no room for hesitation. Team NXT is young, hungry, and ready to prove they’re the future — but the veterans from TNA aren’t here to make friends. Expect fireworks, hard hits, and maybe a controversial call or two from referee Joe Hendry, who’s known to bring a little extra charisma to his duties.

👉 Who do you think will win this battle for brand supremacy?

👑 Women’s Elimination Showdown – NXT vs. TNA

Team NXT: Jacy Jayne, Sol Ruca, Jaida Parker & Lola Vice

vs.

Team TNA: Kelani Jordan, Jessi McKay, Cassie Lee & Mara Sade (The IInspiration)

Special Guest Referee: Jordynne Grace

Two powerhouse women’s divisions. One ring. Total mayhem.

Jordynne Grace calls it down the middle (or does she?), as both sides unleash speed, attitude, and chaos. Expect Sol Ruca’s insane athleticism and Cassie Lee’s cunning to stand out here — but in a match like this, anyone could be the difference-maker.

🏆 Winner-Takes-All Tag Team Championship Match

DarkState (NXT Tag Team Champions) vs. The Hardy Boyz (TNA Tag Team Champions)

The dream match nobody saw coming — until now.

Matt and Jeff Hardy are on one last run to reclaim tag team dominance, but the new generation, DarkState, are not giving up their gold without a fight. With both sets of titles on the line and interference banned, this could go down as a match-of-the-year contender.

👉 Who walks out with both tag team titles?

🥇 NXT North American Championship

Ethan Page (Champion) vs. Mustafa Ali (Challenger)

It’s the story that almost never was — until now.

Mustafa Ali finally gets his long-awaited chance at the North American Title, facing the brash and confident Ethan Page. Both are fan favorites for different reasons, but only one leaves with gold around their waist. Could this be Ali’s redemption moment?

👉 Who do you think wins the North American Championship?

👀 Surprise Appearances & Chaos Ahead

Rumors are swirling about The Dudley Boyz making an appearance, and we all know what that means — “D’Von, get the tables!” Don’t blink, because this show could explode with nostalgia, twists, and maybe even a few shocking betrayals.

🧠 Final Thoughts

“NXT: Showdown” isn’t just a fun crossover — it’s a glimpse at the future of pro wrestling. WWE and TNA sharing the stage is something fans dreamed of for decades, and tonight it’s real. Expect unforgettable moments, emotional stakes, and a crowd that never stops chanting.
