Dave Meltzer Match Ratings NXT Vengeance Day 2025

Giulia & Stephanie Vaquer celebrate at NXT Vengeance Day

Dave Meltzer has published his review of NXT Vengeance Day.

On February 15, NXT headed to the CareFirst Arena in Washington D.C. for Vengeance Day. On a night when a new champion was crowned, it was four masked strangers who arguably made the biggest impact.

After Nathan Frazer and Axiom successfully defended their Tag Team Titles against Josh Briggs and Yoshiki Inamura, they were attacked by four mystery men clad in black. The quartet was later revealed to be Dion Lennox, Saquon Shugars, Cutler James, and Osiris Griffin.

Later in the night, the group attacked NXT Champion Oba Femi.

Elsewhere during the show, Stephanie Vaquer defeated Fallon Henley to claim the Women’s North American Title. The victory marked her first taste of championship gold since signing with WWE back in July.

In the main event, Giulia retained her Women’s Title with a win over Roxanne Perez, Bayley, and Cora Jade. After the match, Vaquer came out to celebrate with the champion, only for the pair to be met by Jordynne Grace who stared down both women as the show went off the air.
