WWE NXT Preview for December 17, 2024: Confirmed Matches, Start Time and How to Watch

The December 17 episode of WWE NXT is already creating a ton of buzz. With 2025 approaching, WWE is expected to deliver major storylines and memorable moments, leaving fans eager to see what unfolds on the show.

NXT Championship: Trick Williams (c) vs. Eddy Thorpe

The main event will see NXT Champion Trick Williams defend his title against Eddy Thorpe. Thorpe called Williams an undeserving champion after winning the Iron Survivor Challenge at NXT Deadline, which intensified their rivalry. Determined to prove his critics wrong, Williams accepted the challenge. There is definitely a lot at stake in the match so it remains to be seen who will come out on top when all is said and done.

NXT Tag Team Championship: Nathan Frazer & Axiom (c) vs. Gallus

Nathan Frazer and Axiom will defend their NXT Tag Team Championships against Gallus’ Wolfgang and Mark Coffey. Frazer and Axiom have been standout champions, but the power and teamwork of Gallus will be a tough hurdle to overcome. This match could significantly impact the NXT tag team division if Gallus wins, so we’ll have to see if that will end up happening.

Oba Femi vs. Axiom

Axiom will pull double duty, also facing Oba Femi in a singles match. Axiom is familiar with competing in multiple matches in one night, as seen at NXT Deadline. This will be a tough challenge as he faces Femi, fresh off his Iron Survivor Challenge victory, but fans may just see Femi brutalize Axiom in the end.

Jaida Parker vs. Wren Sinclair

Jaida Parker will face Wren Sinclair on the December 17 episode of WWE NXT and fans are eager to see the fallout after their fiery confrontation last week. The tension started on the December 10 episode of NXT when Parker and Sinclair had a heated backstage argument during the match between No Quarter Catch Crew and OTM. With sparks already flying, the two will now settle their differences in the ring and we’ll have to see who will come out the winner.

Zaria & Sol Ruca vs. Lash Legend & Jakara Jackson

In the women’s division, Meta-Four’s Lash Legend and Jakara Jackson will take on the unlikely team of Zaria and Sol Ruca. This match comes after weeks of rising tensions and features two teams with contrasting styles. Fans can expect Zaria and Ruca to bring exciting high-flying moves in what will likely be a solid match.
