Zaria has won her first champion in WWE as she is the new NXT Women’s North American Champion. She defeated Tatum Paxley on the June 9 episode of NXT in the main event. This ends Paxley’s reign at 95 days after five successful defenses.
Paxley didn’t go down easy. It took three spears and two F5’s by Zaria to get the pin. Zaria has been chasing the North American Title since 2025’s Stand & Deliver where the gold became a focal point between herself and Sol Ruca
Zaria becomes the ninth woman to hold the gold since its inception in 2024.
As for Paxley, she is one of only two women in history to hold both the NXT Women’s North American Title and the NXT Women’s Title. The other being Stephanie Vaquer.
