At Saturday’s WWE NXT No Mercy event, NXT General Manager Ava revealed a major development with the announcement of the NXT Invasion special, scheduled for October 7 on The CW. This event will feature two high-stakes Survivor Series-style matches—one involving male wrestlers and the other featuring female competitors. The upcoming show will bring together stars from both WWE NXT and outside promotions, sparking excitement among fans and wrestlers alike.
Notable names like Myles Borne, Lash Legend, Frankie Kazarian, Moose, and Mike Santana have expressed interest in taking part, intensifying anticipation for the crossover battles. The NXT Invasion serves as a platform for rival promotions to clash, promising dramatic encounters and compelling storylines.
Wrestlers Express Readiness and Defiance Amidst Invasion Tensions
Wrestlers involved in the event conveyed their determination and eagerness to face challengers. Myles Borne declared,
“We’ll be ready to defend our house,”
signaling a fierce commitment to protecting NXT’s turf against invaders. Similarly, Mike Santana issued a stark warning, stating, “I GAVE YOU FAIR WARNING….” Moose added to the mounting tension with a succinct message tagging both WWE NXT and the invading promotion, highlighting the brewing conflict.
Frankie Kazarian, the current International Champion from the rival promotion, embraced the term “invasion,” calling himself the #KingofTNA and promising to bring the fight back to NXT this Tuesday. His participation underscores the high-profile nature of this cross-promotion rivalry poised to shake up the NXT landscape.
Surprise Attack Sidelines NXT Women’s Title Contender
The women’s championship scene was rocked during No Mercy when Lola Vice was assaulted by an unidentified attacker. Vice, recovering on the outside, was caught off guard by a running kneestrike from a masked individual. Despite this, she managed to re-enter the ring to avoid a count-out but was ultimately defeated by Jacy Jayne, who retained the NXT Women’s Championship after a rolling enzuigiri.
Before the match, Laney Reid revealed through an interview that she was sidelined by a foot cast, confirming her temporary absence. Post-match, Lola Vice and Laney exchanged tense words, adding intrigue to ongoing female rivalries within NXT.
WWE captured the fans’ shock with the question, “WHO JUST ATTACKED LOLA?!?” emphasizing the mystery surrounding the incident. Meanwhile, Laney’s injury did not prevent her from confronting Lola Vice verbally, stirring further conflict within the women’s division.
Ethan Page Retains North American Title, Faces New Challenge from AAA Champion
Ethan Page successfully defended his North American Championship by defeating Tavion Heights at No Mercy. However, his celebration was interrupted when El Hijo de Dr. Wagner Jr., the AAA Latin American Champion, appeared via video to issue a challenge. Wagner declared his sights on the North American title, signaling a potential title feud crossing promotional lines.
This tension follows their recent encounter at the Worlds Collide event, where El Hijo de Dr. Wagner Jr. emerged victorious in a four-way match for the Latin American Championship. The rivalry between the two champions promises future clashes that will captivate wrestling audiences.
In WWE’s words,
“I have eyes on your North American Title,”
clearly setting the stage for an intense battle between two top-tier competitors.
The Impact of the NXT No Mercy Event and What Lies Ahead
The announcement of the WWE NXT No Mercy Invasion marks a significant turning point for the NXT brand, introducing a new storyline that merges talents from multiple wrestling organizations. The involvement of prominent figures like Myles Borne, Frankie Kazarian, Mike Santana, and Moose ensures that the upcoming events will carry emotional weight and physical intensity.
This invasion concept reignites the tradition of cross-promotional warfare reminiscent of classic Survivor Series events, reenergizing fan interest and expanding the narrative possibilities for NXT and its rivals. As wrestlers prepare to defend their home promotion, viewers can expect high-stakes showdowns and evolving alliances that will shape the future of NXT.
Following the unresolved attack on Lola Vice and the looming title rivalry between Ethan Page and El Hijo de Dr. Wagner Jr., No Mercy leaves fans eager for answers and anticipating further developments in the weeks ahead.

Invasion? Count me in! An Invasion can be defined as an unwelcome intrusion. Well, be prepared to welcome the current @ThisIsTNA International Champion, and the #KingofTNA back to @WWENXT this Tuesday!
