WWE Reveals Participants In Newest Title Tournament

The newest WWE tournament with serious title implications is almost underway, and the full brackets have now been confirmed.

WWE Speed was first announced in February 2024 in partnership with social media platform X to great fanfare. Two months later, the show debuted with a tournament to decide the first-ever Speed Champion.

A women’s tournament subsequently followed, and the inaugural champion was crowned in October.

However, no new episodes have been uploaded to the platform since July 9, putting its future well and truly in doubt. At present, the men’s Speed Championship is held by El Grande Americano, and the women’s title is held by Sol Ruca. Sol Ruca recently admitted her title could be dropped, but now that doesn’t look like it will be the case.

At Heatwave, it was revealed that the Speed titles will be moving to NXT, with a tournament being announced to find the new number one contender for Ruca’s title.

NXT General Manager Ava revealed that SmackDown star Candice LeRaw will take on TNA’s Xia Brookside in one semi-final, while AAA’s Faby Apache will clash with NXT’s Laney Reid in the other. The winner of the four-woman tournament will challenge Sol Ruca for the women’s WWE Speed Title at No Mercy.

WWE Make Another No Mercy Title Match

At Heatwave, Jacy Jayne lost the TNA Knockouts Championship in a triple threat match featuring Ash By Elegance and Masha Slamovich. The former Dana Brooke picked up the pinfall win on her fellow TNA star Masha Slamovich after the Elegance Brand dragged Jayne from the ring.

Now, Jacy Jayne’s other title is under serious threat as she will put the NXT Women’s Title on the line at No Mercy against Lola Vice.
