Ava and Stevie Turner Incident on NXT: What Happened?

The November 26, 2024, episode of WWE NXT featured a dramatic moment involving NXT General Manager Ava, Stevie Turner, and Eddy Thorpe. The incident occurred after Ava announced matches to determine the final entrant for the NXT Deadline event, leading to unexpected physicality backstage.

Ava Injured in Altercation

During the show, Ava introduced two four-way matches featuring losers of the Iron Survivor Qualifiers to determine the final NXT Deadline participants. However, tensions escalated when Eddy Thorpe confronted her backstage. Thorpe, frustrated by Ava’s perceived dismissal of his complaints, accidentally knocked her down in the middle of a heated exchange involving the tag team division.

Stevie Turner, Ava’s assistant, quickly took to social media to comment on the incident.

“Boss, I won’t leave your side until you’ve recovered. I promise. But I do think this is Rob’s fault.”

Turner’s tweet referenced Robert Stone, who also serves as Ava’s backstage assistant, adding further intrigue to the situation.

Shawn Michaels Reacts

The altercation didn’t end with Ava’s injury. WWE Hall of Famer Shawn Michaels, visibly upset, confronted Eddy Thorpe. In a heated moment, Michaels shoved Thorpe against a garage door, further intensifying the drama.

Fans React to the Chaos

The incident has sparked widespread speculation about the fallout, with many wondering how this will affect the NXT Deadline lineup. Ava’s injury and Thorpe’s involvement could lead to unforeseen changes in match setups.
