WWE NXT Deadline 2024 Predictions: Trick Williams Will BURY Ridge Holland

NXT Deadline is this Saturday in Minneapolis, Minnesota at The Armory and WWE has confirmed five matches for this event. Two of these matches are major title matches, one is a special Underground Match, and the biggest feature of this PPV is the chaotic Iron Survivor Challenge for both the men's and women's divisions. These challenges will determine the next number-one contenders for the NXT World Titles. With that being said, it is now time for the highly anticipated NXT Deadline 2024 Predictions, where Trick Williams will BURY Ridge Holland at this PLE.

Trick Williams (c) vs. Ridge Holland [NXT Championship]

Trick Williams will defeat Ridge Holland to retain the NXT Championship because Trick only recently won the title back from Ethan Page in October and Ridge Holland has no business winning the top prize in NXT after merely betraying and turning heel on Chase University. Not only did Ridge Holland barely get a reaction for his betrayal but he neither has sufficient credibility nor ample momentum to become the top champion in NXT. His recent work could probably suffice for Tony D' Angelo's NXT North American Title as a consolation prize, but he definitely will not be able to whoop that trick.

Prediction: Trick Williams

Sol Ruca vs. Zaria vs. Guilia vs. Stephanie Vaquer vs. Wren Sinclair [Iron Survivor Challenge]

Stephanie Vaquer and Zaria already have claims for the NXT World Title after pinning Roxanne in tag matches. Guilia already got her shot at Roxanne's NXT World Title but failed to capture the gold. Due to her lackluster credibility and momentum, Wren Sinclair is the weakest link in this Iron Survivor Challenge and has no business earning a world title shot this soon, so she will likely be eating a plethora of pins. Sol Ruca, who has sufficient credibility and ample momentum, never got a shot at Roxanne and interrupted her "vacation" recently, so she's the best bet for the victory here.

Prediction: Sol Ruca
