NXT Heatwave poll results for best match and overall show grade

By Jason Powell, ProWrestling.net Editor (@prowrestlingnet)

-Sunday’s NXT Heatwave event received a B grade from 40 percent of the voters in our post-show poll. A finished second with 38 percent of the vote.

-83 percent of the voters gave best match honors to Kendal Grey vs. Kelani Jordan for the NXT Women’s Championship. Tony D’Angelo vs. Cruz Montana vs. Grayson Waller vs. Zilla Fatu for the NXT Championship finished a distant second with 14 percent of the vote.

Powell’s POV: I gave the show a B+ grade, and John Moore also gave it a B+ grade during his same-day audio review for Dot Net Members (including our Patreon patrons). I wholeheartedly agree with the readers’ choice of the NXT Women’s Championship match as the best of the night. I thought it was a great match.

The 2025 NXT Heatwave show received a B grade from 53 percent of the voters in our post-show poll. The 2024 Heatwave received an A grade from 59 percent of the voters. The poll results for AAA Ola de Calor went up earlier today, and the AEW All In poll results were released on Wednesday afternoon. Thanks to everyone who took the time to vote in our polls.
