Summary

NXT Halloween Havoc delivered another unpredictable night, capped off by Tatum Paxley’s shocking victory over Jacy Jayne to capture the NXT Women’s Championship. The event took place at the Findlay Toyota Center in Prescott Valley, Arizona, and featured one of the most chaotic women’s matches in recent NXT history.
The match was set after Paxley won a battle royal at NXT vs. TNA Showdown, earning the right to challenge Jayne for the title. She entered the arena alongside The Culling, dressed in white with blood-red markings on her gear. At the same time, Jayne arrived flanked by her Fatal Attraction stablemates, determined to retain the championship by any means necessary.
The action spilled to ringside early, with Jayne sending Paxley face-first into the steel supports beneath the ring. Fatal Attraction took full advantage of the referee’s distractions, attacking Paxley whenever possible. Despite the interference, Paxley kept fighting back as the crowd chanted loudly in frustration, prompting some confusion from the commentary team.
Jayne nearly retained after a top-rope neckbreaker, but outside interference from Shawn Spears, Lainey Reid, and Izzi Dame turned the contest into chaos. The referee eventually ejected everyone from ringside, forcing Jayne to face Paxley alone.
Once the playing field was level, both women traded heavy shots and counters. Paxley hit a Rolling Encore and a 450 Splash for a close near fall, while Jayne narrowly escaped several pin attempts. When The Culling tried to return, Jayne used her title as a weapon, but Paxley countered with a perfectly timed Cemetery Drive to score the decisive pinfall.
Tatum Paxley’s victory marks her first reign as NXT Women’s Champion and signals a major shift for the women’s division. With Fatal Attraction on edge and The Culling lurking, the new champion may have claimed the title, but her battle is just beginning.
