There was plenty happening inside the WWE Performance Center before the WWE NXT episode on October 6, 2026 ever hit The CW and Netflix. WWE held three non-televised matches before the cameras started rolling, giving the live crowd a few extra bouts that viewers at home never saw.
Myka Lockwood defeated Zoe Hines with a standing moonsault. Before the match, Hines spoke to the crowd and said she gets what she wants, but that confidence did not translate into a win once the bell rang.
Tyran Tuckey also picked up a victory over Brooks Jensen after scoring the pin with a Superman pin. Tuckey was accompanied by Jackson Goonrey, with the pair introduced together as The Dropouts before Jensen interrupted them and sparked the match.
The final non-televised bout saw Conan Lycan defeat Marcus Mathers with a Stormbreaker. The match was competitive, but Lycan was able to put Mathers away before NXT officially went live.
Those three matches were strictly for the fans inside the building, making them part of what viewers at home did not get to see on the October 6 episode.
