Live from the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, Florida, the June 23 edition of NXT is set to deliver high-stakes tournament finals, rising prospects, and championship gold.
With the fallout from recent WWE Speed and WWE ID crossovers settling in, the black-and-gold brand rolls into Tuesday night with a card focused on breakout opportunities and bitter rivalries.
As always, we’ve got the official lineup, my predictions, and our latest YouTube video. #AutismAwareness
WWE NXT June 23, 2026 Lineup
Tag Team: Dorian Van Dux & Sean Legacy vs. The Culling (Shawn Spears & Niko Vance)
The Angle: This is a fantastic bit of storytelling coming out of the WWE Speed tournament. Van Dux and Legacy fought to a chaotic 3-minute time-limit draw back on May 26, knocking them both out of the tournament but earning massive respect from each other.
Now, they are teaming up to handle Shawn Spears and his powerhouse protege Niko Vance.
Keanu Carver vs. EK Prosper
The Angle: A pure battle of blue-chip athletic prospects. Both men have been grinding at the PC, looking for that definitive breakout television performance.
WWE EVOLVE Championship: Aaron Rourke (c) vs. Tristan Angels
The Angle: The crossover integration of the WWE ID and EVOLVE brands continues to deliver fresh matchups. Tristan Angels—the former UK independent standout and model turned PC recruit—has been turning heads, but he’s stepping into deep water here.
Rourke is an incredibly savvy champion who knows exactly how to utilize psychological pacing and underhanded leverage (just look at his recent tactical, weight-leveraged pinfalls) to keep his gold.
Tag Team: Hank & Tank vs. BirthRight (Uriah Connors & Channing Lorenzo)
The Angle: Hank Walker and Tank Ledger bring pure powerhouse, beer-and-brats energy, but they’ve got a massive task ahead against the highly structured precision of BirthRight.
Uriah Connors and Channing "Stacks" Lorenzo have an undeniable tactical chemistry that usually leaves their opponents chasing shadows.
WWE Speed Women’s Championship #1 Contender Tournament Final: Izzi Dame (w/ The Culling) vs. Arianna Grace
The Angle: Having both punched their tickets in the semifinals on June 16, the stakes are massive here. The winner goes on to challenge for the Speed title.
You have the sheer powerhouse presence of Izzi Dame, backed by the dangerous sideline presence of Spears and Vance, going up against the pageant-perfect, master-manipulator charisma of Arianna Grace.
Double Contract Signing
NXT Champion Tony D’Angelo and NXT Women's Champion Lola Vice go pen-to-paper with their respective challengers, Naraku and Kendal Grey, in a massive double contract signing.
NXT Predictions
Tristan Angels defeats Aaron Rourke to win the WWE EVOLVE Championship
Dorian Van Dux & Sean Legacy defeats The Culling
Arianna Grace defeats Izzi Dame
Keanu Carver defeats EK Prosper
Hank And Tank defeats Birthright
Double Contract Signing: Tony D'Angelo and Naruku signs the contract and then goes face to face, Then Kendal Grey and Lola Vice signs the contract and then Kendal Grey and Wren Sinclair turns heel on Lola Vice
