WWE NXT video highlights: Bron Breakker wins NXT title
A big title change headlined the first NXT episode of 2022.
Bron Breakker defeated Tommaso Ciampa to win the NXT Championship at New Year’s Evil on Tuesday night. Breakker’s father Rick Steiner was in attendance for the match but not shown on camera. After the show went off the air, WWE uploaded video of him celebrating Breakker’s NXT Championship win in the ring with him.
Two other title matches also took place at New Year’s Evil. Mandy Rose retained her NXT Women’s Championship in a triple threat match against Raquel Gonzalez and Cora Jade. And the NXT North American and Cruiserweight titles were unified when Carmelo Hayes defeated Roderick Strong.
With the titles now unified, the NXT Cruiserweight Championship is being dropped. Hayes will be recognized as the North American Champion going forward.
Plus, main roster stars AJ Styles and Riddle appeared. A confrontation between Styles and Grayson Waller set up a match for next week’s NXT, while Riddle teamed with MSK to defeat Imperium’s WALTER, Marcel Barthel & Fabian Aichner.
