WWE NXT fans won’t have to wait to find out what’s going down on the July 8 episode — the next round of tapings already happened, and the card is packed with grudge matches, big stakes, and familiar faces ready to throw down.

During the June 24 tapings at the WWE Performance Center, several matches were filmed for the July 1 and July 8 shows. While the July 1 results have already leaked, it’s the lineup for July 8 that really got people talking.

First up, Charlie Dempsey will face Tavion Heights, but there’s a major catch. If Tavion wins, he’s officially out of the No Quarter Catch Crew. This one isn’t just personal — it could change Tavion’s entire future in NXT.

Joe Hendry and Mike Santana are teaming up to take on The High Ryze — Tyriek Igwe and Tyson DuPont — with Wes Lee in their corner. Hendry already defeated Wes Lee during the July 1 tapings, and now, he’s got backup for round two.

The Vanity Project is also back in action with a Gauntlet Match. Ricky Saints is set to take on Jackson Drake, Brad Baylor, and Ricky Smokes, with NXT Champion Ethan Page keeping a close eye on things.

NXT Women’s Title contender Jordynne Grace had some words for Fatal Influence during the tapings. After getting jumped by the group, Blake Monroe ran in to even the odds. NXT GM Ava wasted no time making the match official for The Great American Bash: Jordynne Grace and Blake Monroe will face Fallon Henley and Jacy Jayne in tag team action.

With these matches set, the July 8 episode of NXT is looking loaded with fallout, drama, and title implications. Fans better buckle in — this one’s going to get messy.
