WWE NXT Results 6/4 - Jordynne Grace Faces Stevie Turner, NXT Heritage Cup On The Line & More
Welcome to Wrestling Inc.'s results for "WWE NXT" on June 4, 2024, coming to you live from the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, Florida!
Days before she challenges Roxanne Perez for the "NXT" Women's Championship at "NXT" Battleground on June 9, Jordynne Grace will be competing in a WWE ring for the first time since competing in the Women's Royal Rumble back in January as she collides with the returning Stevie Turner. To the surprise of many, Grace was revealed as Perez's new Number One Contender last week. When Turner voiced her frustrations with being dismissed and not being granted a title shot of her own to "NXT" General Manager Ava, Grace challenged her to a match after she walked in and heard her.
Tony D'Angelo of The Family will be putting the NXT Heritage Cup on the line for the first time since becoming titleholder as he defends against No Quarter Catch Crew's Damon Kemp. The issues between The Family and No Quarter Catch Crew have remained no secret over the course of the past few weeks, and have only intensified since D'Angelo dethroned Charlie Dempsey as Heritage Cup Champion on the May 14 edition of "NXT".
As tensions within Chase U continue to rise, Thea Hail will have to refocus her sights tonight as she goes head-to-head with Jazmyn Nyx. Nyx and her ally Jacy Jayne betrayed Hail a number of weeks ago, and Hail has seeked her retribution against both of them by defeating Nyx on the March 26 episode of "NXT" and defeating Jayne in a Six Woman Tag Team Match at "NXT" Stand & Deliver in April and a singles match at Night Two of Spring Breakin' later that same month.
Additionally, fans will be getting a peek into the "NXT" Underground match between Lola Vice and Shayna Baszler ahead of Battleground with an inside look.
We are live! The show kicks off with Ava and Mr. Stone meeting Ethan Page outside the Performance Center as they look to sign him to a WWE contract.

She says no one is willing to put in the work like she will.
Booker then says Sol Ruca might be a little out of her element in a Ladder Match, and Ruca says while she was going to sit back as everyone else insulted one another, five of the women in the ring will be wrong. She says five stones will be smashed on Sunday. Lash Legend then says it's been a rough couple weeks for her, but Sunday is about her. She says she will be going from a woman with potential to a woman who is Women's North American Championship.
Parker says she's surprised Legend could think about anything besides Trick Williams, and the six women then get in one another's faces. The six women begin brawling with one another, and Ruca, Michin, and Jordan dump Legend, Henley, and Parker out of the ring.

Joe says the WWE Universe might respect Gallus more if they were more present on social media or played another sport, and Mark says Gallus is not in "NXT" for online clout. He says they're there to be professional wrestlers, and Wolfgang says the next generation is ruining everything they built.

Back from the break, Ava is waiting inside the ring.
Ethan Page Signs A Contract To Become An Official Member Of The NXT Roster
Ava says Ethan Page wanted to have their contract negotiation in public and invites him down to the ring. Page makes his way out and takes a seat as does Ava. Ava says she doesn't like to handle business this way, and says it's time to hammer out a deal.
Page thanks Ava, and tells her she's going to have to get used to him calling the shots around "NXT" if he signs the contract they've agreed on because he'll be getting a lot of perks. He says he doesn't think the "NXT" locker room or Ava herself will like that very much, and says he's earned all the perks. He says he's tired of sitting around and waiting for opportunities, and says he's going to take them. He says Ava should have a smile on her face because she's about to sign "The Wrestler".
Ava tells Page she's not signing anyone with his demands, and Page says she will sign him on live TV because she needs to. He says "NXT" lost eight of their top Superstars during the WWE Draft, and says he'll take the brand to new heights. He says he understands there's a lot of money in his contract, but he could've sat at home for two years collecting a check. He says he's not about that, and says while Ava might hate him, she knows he's talented and a megastar. He says he hasn't said anything that's an opinion, but simply things that are fact.
Trick Williams' music hits, and he makes his way down to the ring. Page dumps the table in the ring out of it, and Page calls for Williams' music to be cut. Page says he knows how contract signing usually go, and says no one is getting put through a table tonight. He says he's here to handle business.
Williams tells Ava to give Page whatever he wants so he and everyone else in the building can get what they want: to beat down Page. He tells Page that "NXT" is his house, and he's been around for a minute. He says he has a few friends in the back who have been with him through everything, as have the fans. Williams tells Page that his problem with him is that he jumped the line in his house. He says Page is crazy for thinking he can jump the line to get a shot at the "NXT" Championship, then says he'll make an example out of him.
Page says he gets why Williams is emotional after their encounter last week, and says he and Williams have a lot more in common than they think. He says he saw Williams in Carmelo Hayes' shadow, and says he's been in the same position Williams has been in a million times. He says Williams was able to break out while he wasn't, then says being "NXT" Champion comes with the responsibility of having a target on his back and a big spotlight he craves. He says attacking Williams wasn't personal, then tells Ava he's ready to sign the contract.
Ava hands Page the contract and he signs it. Page says all he needs is Ava's signature, and Williams invites Ava to sign. Ava says she can't because of a stipulation, and Page reveals that should Ava sign, she gives him a shot at the "NXT" Championship at Battleground and the end of the Whoop That era. Williams says Page can't end anything, and says come Battleground, Page will be hearing one think: Whoop That Trick. Ava signs the contract, and Williams and Page get in one another's faces. They stare one another down, and Williams holds up the "NXT" Championship as the show goes off the air.
