NXT Vengeance Day Fallout: Borne Retains, Chaos Erupts, and a Street Fight Set for Vengeance Day

Orlando, Florida – The March 3rd episode of NXT delivered a night of intense action and escalating rivalries as the WWE Superstars geared up for Vengeance Day. The show featured a North American Championship match, a Women’s Championship defense, and several confrontations that set the stage for Saturday’s premium live event.

Myles Borne Continues Reign as North American Champion

The show opened with newly crowned NXT North American Champion Myles Borne celebrating his victory over Ethan Page. Borne expressed gratitude to those who doubted him, specifically thanking Page for igniting a “demon” within him. Page immediately challenged Borne to a rematch, which was granted by Interim General Manager Robert Stone, leading to an impromptu championship bout.

Borne and Page battled in a chaotic match that saw both competitors’ attire torn apart. After a back-and-forth contest, Borne secured the victory using Page’s own shoe and his finisher, the Borne Again, retaining the NXT North American Championship. Bleacher Report provided live coverage of the match.
