NXT Gold Rush _ Nov 25, 2025 - Kendal Grey Vs Lainey Reid _Evolve Women's Championship Match
Transcript
00:00And her opponent from Las Vegas, Nevada.
00:11She is the Evolve Women's Champion, Kendall Gray.
00:30And the champion, that woman right there, Kendall Gray, has a variety of suplexes in her arsenal.
00:43As we will see her put the Women's Evolve Championship on the line here tonight against Laney Reed of Fatal Influence.
00:54And we gotta welcome back to the desk, the voice of Evolve, Peter Rosebergen.
00:58Are you ready for the women of Evolve to take center stage?
01:01I am ready to have Kendall Gray shine in the most famous arena in the world.
01:07She's everything that Evolve's all about.
01:09We talking about Laney Reed here, man. We talking about the biggest, the largest.
01:14Oh, yes, man. Laney Reed is about to blow up here in Madison.
01:19The woman who's just running around slapping people for no reason.
01:24You got a title, man, don't you?
01:26Huh?
01:27Huh?
01:28It is all about the women's Evolve.
01:31You damn right it is, Victor.
01:33Championship.
01:34Whoa!
01:39There you go, man.
01:41There you go.
01:42I don't even get into talking about these two.
01:43It's Kendall Gray right off ripping.
01:44Look, you brought it up already.
01:45Kendall Gray got slapped right in the face two weeks ago.
01:47You know she is not in any mood to take her time to waste any time.
01:51She's taking it to the challenge.
01:52Absolutely not.
01:53And she is one of the competitors.
01:54Whoa!
01:55She has levels.
01:56She's looking for the arm bar early.
01:58Trying to get the submission.
01:59Nice counter by Laney Reed.
02:00Beautiful counter there.
02:01But Kendall has different levels booked that she can go to.
02:04And I think Laney has brought something out of her here.
02:06I'm not gonna take that away from her.
02:07But I'm gonna tell you right now, Laney Reed, he's a star, man.
02:10Just looking for that moment.
02:12And that moment could be tonight.
02:14I love it.
02:15Well, Peter, I gotta ask you this when it comes to Evolve.
02:17Who are some of the women that have stand out, stood up, so to speak,
02:20that we need to keep our eye on?
02:22Well, I mean, obviously, there's a woman right now who's waiting,
02:24should Kendall Gray successfully defend, who will get Kendall Gray on
02:27December 3rd.
02:28And that's Shawn Tellerman Roe, who's impressed a lot of people.
02:31But of course, our longtime champion, Kali Armstrong, has been incredible as well.
02:36There's a ton of talented women on Evolve every Wednesday night.
02:39Kendall Gray right now putting on the brakes.
02:42Going up, going over.
02:47I mean, that just raised Booker's eyebrows there for a moment.
02:49As Greg coming right back in, trying to take down Laney.
02:52But Laney Reed, who has been under the learning tree, so to speak, of J.C. Jane,
02:57just got outsmarted in that moment.
02:59Oh, big time shot right there.
03:01This be it, into the cover hook of the leg.
03:03And Peter, what has stood out the most about Kendall Gray?
03:05Honestly, it's the attitude and the approach.
03:07Fair.
03:08She's a first person to the gym, last one out.
03:11She's at Evolve.
03:12She's at every NXT show.
03:13Everywhere she can be, she is there.
03:15She lives at the PC.
03:16She dedicates her time, and you see the results in the room.
03:19Let's go, Meadows!
03:21Nanny Reed's starting to turn things around.
03:23And Booker, let's talk about Fatal Influence, because Fatal Influence can certainly
03:26turn this division upside down with a win here.
03:29We're talking about the trifecta, man.
03:31This is something we've been talking about for a long time before Influence get back on track.
03:37Wait a minute.
03:38Oh, nice counter for a moment.
03:39Wait a minute.
03:40Wait a minute.
03:41I like this.
03:42I like this.
03:43Watch out, guys.
03:44Watch out.
03:46Kendall Gray might have just saw her championship reign flash right before her eyes in that moment.
03:52Oh, no.
03:53God.
03:54Gray just got wiped out.
03:56Is Laney Reed about to crown herself champion?
04:03Women's Evolved Championship on the line.
04:05The challenger has been in control of this matchup.
04:08And Booker Reed certainly has made and created moments for herself.
04:13And it all started with slapping the champion two weeks ago.
04:16You know, it's all about, you know, drawing the champion into those deep waters, man.
04:20I think that's what it is more than anything.
04:21Laney Reed is primed for a victory tonight.
04:24And I can feel it in my bones, man.
04:26I like how, excuse me, Kendall Gray.
04:29But Laney Reed, she's the future, man.
04:32She truly is.
04:33If Laney Reed were to win this title, Peter, I mean, how would Reed and Fatal Influence be representing them all?
04:38Well, you read my mind.
04:39Can you imagine on Wednesday nights now Fatal Influence is on Evolve every week?
04:43In some ways it would be the silver lining of Kendall losing this match.
04:47Because it would be something to see, but I don't think Kendall Gray is going down easy tonight.
04:51Champion starting to fight back at high risk.
04:53Beautiful moonsault wiping out the challenger.
04:56And this certainly could be the turning point.
04:58Because we don't only talk about the championship that's on the line.
05:01We also talk about a man who is trying to create some decisions as you take a look at this moonsault again.
05:07Perfectly placed.
05:08John Cena still to select five women who will compete in the Iron Survivor Challenge.
05:13Of course, Cena added the stipulation to our main event tonight.
05:16Win, get in.
05:17Williams Bourne, who heads to Deadline a week from Saturday as Kendall Gray is starting to fight back in these deep waters.
05:25Beautiful shot there by Gray.
05:27Well, this is when Kendall Gray book steps up.
05:29Late in matches is when I start to like Kendall Gray's chances.
05:32The longer a match goes, the more you see the heart of Kendall Gray.
05:36Well, you gotta understand, Peter, when it comes to Booker T.
05:38He sees nothing but dollar signs in Laney Reed.
05:41But the champion sees it as an obstacle.
05:44Well, you see dollars in Kendall Gray, don't you?
05:46Take nothing away from Kendall Gray, man.
05:47Less than two years in, she's champion, man.
05:49And you know what I say about a champion.
05:51It makes you a whole lot better when you get that title around your waist right now.
05:54She's looking great.
05:55We just got caught.
05:56Got caught.
05:57Flipping it.
05:58Oh, yes, man.
05:59Ren Sinclair.
06:00The look on her face just turned around.
06:01That's it.
06:02We got a new champ.
06:03We got a new champ.
06:04In the cover for the title.
06:05Whoa.
06:06That left heel just came off the mat.
06:09Take another look.
06:10Just look at how close, Peter, this was to evolve having a new women's champion.
06:15Yeah, maybe as close as it's been for Kendall Gray in her reign so far.
06:20Whew.
06:21You can see the timing of that from Laney Reed.
06:23I mean, is she late?
06:24Well, there is Ren Sinclair on the outside.
06:26You know that she's been trying to coach up in the Ren QCC.
06:30That being Kendall Gray, the champion, to train late.
06:33To understand she's going to be in the deep waters as a champion.
06:37Is she a trainer or a cheerleader?
06:39Why is she out here?
06:40Why is she out here?
06:41Why is she out here?
06:42Why is she out here?
06:43You have an issue with it this week, but you didn't last time?
06:45I'm just saying.
06:46Well, then what?
06:47Not even going to get in.
06:48Oh, wait a minute.
06:49Oh, my God.
06:50What a slap.
06:51What a counter.
06:52What a cover and another near fall for Kendall Gray.
06:54Standing right on top of the challenger.
06:55That was great.
06:56Looking for that arm bar.
06:57Trying to snap that arm.
06:58Laney Reed having to roll through in both these women right now.
07:01Counter.
07:02Look, JC Jane.
07:03What the hell is JC Jane doing out here?
07:05What?
07:06The women's champion.
07:07And then there's Fallon Henry.
07:08She's got it locked in.
07:09Another champion.
07:10Oh!
07:11Well, what's the problem now, boy?
07:13I don't know.
07:14I'm just waiting to see.
07:15What are you talking about?
07:16I don't have anything to do.
07:17What are you talking about?
07:18Brandon, hey.
07:19What the hell?
07:20Charlie.
07:21Charlie Dempsey.
07:22Wait, wait, wait.
07:24Depsey's back.
07:25JC Jane just got taken care of.
07:28Kendall Gray.
07:29This matchup's still going on, Peter.
07:31Absolutely.
07:32Kendall Gray has to keep her eye on the prize.
07:33What the hell?
07:34What the hell?
07:35What the hell?
07:36What the hell?
07:37What the hell?
07:38What the hell?
07:39What the hell?
07:40What the hell?
07:41What the hell?
07:42What the hell?
07:43What the hell?
07:44What the hell?
07:45What the hell?
07:46What the hell?
07:47Well, our official just made an executive decision.
07:48Kendall shot the Charlie Dempsey.
07:49Wait a minute, guys.
07:50Another near fall and another kick out.
07:53Wow, what a matchup again.
07:55Showcasing what Evolve is.
07:57Oh, foul.
07:59Now we may be in book to be crowning a new Evolve Women's Champion.
08:04Lady B's going up.
08:05She's going up with a big shot.
08:07Here we go, baby.
08:08Kendall Gray.
08:10Hopping up.
08:11And we talked about a variety of suplexes.
08:14A German from the top.
08:16Oh, it looks like she's ready to enter the gray area.
08:20This is what Kendall does book.
08:22And New York City rising up for the shade of gray as gray continues to evolve.
08:30Here is your winner, and still, the Evolve Women's Champion, Kendall Gray.
08:43What a night, Peter.
08:45What a night, Peter, for Evolve.
08:48Oh, no, I feel great heading into Thanksgiving this year with Evolve intact.
08:54The champions doing what they do to represent the brand like they do every Wednesday night.
08:59Well, Kendall has a lot to be thankful for.
09:01That's including Wren Sinclair on the outside running a little bit of interference after Fatal Influence.
09:06Sucked their nose into this matchup.
09:08And then Wren, she's got to be thankful for Charlie Dempsey, who made his return to NXT.
09:13But while all that was going on, the referee using his discretion,
09:17Felix Fernandez said it is time to get out because we got a championship showdown.
09:22And the champion rose to the occasion.
09:25She was able to hit that big, super German suplex off the top.
09:29And what did you say to this?
09:30Entering the gray area.
09:32Well, she certainly did.
09:33And then bam!
09:34Shades of gray, baby.
09:35To wipe out Lainey Reed and to retain the Women's Evolve Championship.
09:41And as we've seen tonight, you do not want to miss Kendall Gray, Drake, and the rest of Evolve.
