Ridge Holland earned an NXT title match at the upcoming Deadline premium live event after he defeated Andre Chase in the main event of NXT last night on CW.
Chase lost more than just the title opportunity though as part of the stipulation was that if he were to lose, then Chase U would come to an end.
The ending of the show saw Holland smiling with Chase, Thea Hail, Duke Hudson and Riley Osborne all laid out, with Chase almost breaking down. Most fans at ringside, all wearing Chase U merchandise, stood in silent after the pinfall count, knowing that Chase U was now no longer.
“And I guess that’s the TEACHABLE MOMENT,” Chase wrote on X later, tagging all members of Chase U. “You guys never needed me. I was the one who always needed y’all. Thank you for everything. I wouldn’t be here without you.”
Holland will now face champion Trick Williams at Deadline next month.
