WWE NXT Deadline 2025: Preview, match card, news, timings & where to watch

The fourth annual edition will feature a colossal title clash.

The developmental brand is all set to close out the year with the 2025 edition of WWE NXT Deadline. The fourth annual Deadline PLE is set to take place on Saturday, December 6, 2025, at the Boeing Center at Tech Port in San Antonio, Texas. 

The show will feature stars from NXT, TNA, and WWE’s Evolve brand. Additionally, it will be the first Deadline show to broadcast on Netflix (internationally).

The show, as usual, will center on the men’s and women’s Iron Survivor Challenge, a 25-minute, five-competitor match where participants try to earn the most falls to secure a future shot at the NXT Championship and NXT Women’s Championship.

This year, the 17-time WWE World Champion, John Cena, selected the male and female superstars for the Iron Survivor Challenge. Je’Von Evans, Leon Slater, Joe Hendry, Dion Lennox, and Myles Borne will compete in the men’s match.

On the other hand, Sol Ruca, Lola Vice, Kelani Jordan, Jordynne Grace, and Kendal Grey will compete in the women’s match to secure a future NXT Women’s title shot.

NXT Champion Ricky Saints will defend the title against the former Champion Oba Femi, who recently made his return on the November 11 episode of NXT, challenging Saints for the title the following week.

During the contract signing of the match during the go-home show, it was announced by General Manager Ava that the title match would open the show.

Also, during the go-home show, Izzi Dame explained why she and The Culling (Shawn Spears & Niko Vance) betrayed Tatum Paxley in the first week of NXT Gold Rush, costing her the NXT Women’s Championship.

Dame claimed that Paxley acted as though The Culling wasn’t good enough for her and that she failed to appreciate that they were the reason she won the title in the first place, and the reason she no longer holds it. The two former stablemates will now battle in a grudge match at the upcoming PLE this Saturday.

Additionally, Ethan Page is set to defend the NXT North American Championship against AAA’s Mr. Iguana. GM Ava informed Page of the match, pointing out that he hadn’t put the title on the line in some time.
