WWE NXT features championship matches on September 29

WWE NXT returns to the Capitol Wrestling Center in Orlando, Florida, for its September 29, 2026, episode. The upcoming broadcast features two championship matches.

NXT Champion Grayson Waller will defend his title against Mason Rook. This match follows recent tension where Waller mocked Rook’s physique, while Rook suggested Waller’s return to NXT was due to failing to secure a spot on the main roster. In another title bout, NXT North American Champion Zaria will face Thea Hail, who holds two previous victories over the champion.

The Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic also continues with first-round matches featuring Fraxiom (Nathan Frazer and Axiom) against DarkState (Cutler James and Osiris Griffin), and BirthRight (Channing Lorenzo and Uriah Connors) against Mini Vikingo and Chazz Hall. Additionally, Myles Borne is scheduled to return following his recent physical attacks on Tavion Heights.

The program will be broadcast on The CW in the United States and available internationally via Netflix.
