Izzi Dame vs. Tatum Paxley Announced for NXT New Year’s Evil 2026
Tuesday’s taped WWE NXT show also featured one new match announced for the card of NXT New Year’s Evil 2026, which takes place on January 6, 2026 at the Performance Center in Orlando, Florida.
This new match announced was a singles match of Izzi Dame vs. Tatum Paxley.
This new match was setup over recent weeks shows over Paxley’s bad blood issues with Dame and The Culling after they cost her the NXT Women’s Championship and kicked her out of their group. During tonight’s show, Dame came out to the ring and proceeded to trash talk and insult Paxley. This led to Paxley coming out to interrupt and after some banter between the two, Paxley issued a challenge to Dame for New Year’s Evil which Dame accepted. It was announced afterwards that this match was made official for the show.
“It’s not over until I say it is.”
