Three Wrestlers Achieve First WWE Championship Victories

Key Details on Championship Matches and Storylines
Paxley faced Jacy Jayne in a 16-minute technical bout. Both wrestlers’ faction members were ejected from ringside by the referee. With the factions removed, Paxley executed the Cemetery Drive for the pinfall victory and her first WWE championship.[7][4]
Blake Monroe Captures North American Title
Blake Monroe defeated Zaria in a 16-minute match. Zaria defended on behalf of Sol Ruca, who suffered a knee injury during SmackDown and was medically cleared only for ringside support with a knee brace. Monroe targeted Zaria’s arm throughout the match before finishing with the Glamour Shot.[8][9][5]
DarkState Regains Tag Team Championship
DarkState faced The Broken Hardys in a Broken Rules match (no disqualifications). The stipulation allowed all four DarkState members—Dion Lennox, Osiris Griffin, Cutler James, and Saquon Shugars—to participate legally in what became a 4-on-2 handicap match. The Broken Hardys used early chair offense, with Jeff Hardy suplexing Griffin through a table. DarkState recovered using kendo sticks and recovered control. The finish came when Griffin lifted Jeff Hardy into an electric chair position while Lennox executed a Doomsday Device from the top ladder, driving Jeff through a table.[10][11][6]
Ethan Page Extends North American Championship Reign
Ethan Page retained the NXT North American Championship against El Hijo de Dr. Wagner Jr. in an 18-minute Day of the Dead match. Page threw powder in Wagner’s eyes and executed a middle rope cutter through a table to secure the victory. Page’s reign is now 152 days old—identical to Jacy Jayne’s reign that ended the same night. Both champions won their titles on May 27, 2025.[12][13]
