Women’s Survivor Series Match: Jacy Jayne, Lola Vice, Sol Ruca & Jaida Parker vs. Kelani Jordan, Jessie McKay, Cassie Lee, & Mara Sade (Special Guest Referee: Jordynne Grace)
Sade rolled up Parker from behind and pinned her. Ruca followed that with the Sol Snatcher on Sade and pinned her. Lee was pinned after she got hit with a backfist from Vice. Vice then grabbed McKay in a back breaker submission hold and she tapped. The IInspiration distracted Grace. As a result, she didn’t see Jordan pinning Jayne. Jordan grabbed Vice in an Angle slam and got the pin to eliminate her. Ruca hit a Soul Snatcher on Jordan but Jayne tagged in and pinned Jordan to win the match for NXT.

NXT North American Title Match: Ethan Page (c) vs. Mustafa Ali
Ali gave Page a hurricanrana which sent Page out of the ring. He dove through the ropes onto Page which sent both crashing over the announce desk. Ali tossed Page back into the ring but his foot was caught on the cable cord. Ali climbed to the top rope. As he tried to untangle the cord from his foot, Page pushed Ali off the turnbuckle sending him flying down to the mat. Page threw Ali back in the ring, gave him the Twisted Grin, and pinned him to retain his title.
Winner and still NXT North American Champion: Ethan Page

El Hijo Del Dr Wagner Jr said he is coming for the North American Championship. Lexis King barged in. He told Wagner he knows it’s Tavion Heights under the mask. Wagner left and Heights appeared. King pretended he was confused how he changed clothes and took off the mask so fast.
While @hijodewagner has his sights set on @OfficialEGO, the @luchalibreaaa Latin American Champion got a nice introduction to @LexisKingWWE… 😅@TavionHeights pic.twitter.com/1qDa5t2Zvc

Jacy Jayne congratulated Sol Ruka on them being the survivors from their match earlier tonight. Lola Vice and Jaida Parker were standing behind them. As Zaria entered, Parker and Vice left. Zaria told Ruka she sees that she is celebrating with her new friends. Ruka said I thought we squashed this. Ruka apologized for not vouching for Zaria to be part of the NXT team, but told her they are going to be tag team champions.
Blake Monroe came in and told Zaria she will never get what she wants as long as Ruka keeps using her. Zaria told Monroe she is stirring things up for her benefit, and that’s to get Ruka’s titles. She told Monroe that’s not going to happen. Monroe said she only cares about one (pointing to the NXT Championship), and then told Zaria she will see how long her friendship lasts with Ruka.
"Zaria, you will never get what you want as long as Sol keeps using you."
This wasn't cool, @BlakeMonroeWWE… 👀@SolRucaWWE @ZariaWWE_ pic.twitter.com/bh17HhXOJ9
