The 2023 NXT The Great American Bash was a professional wrestling event produced by the American promotion WWE. It was the 11th Great American Bash under the WWE banner, the fourth annual held specifically for its developmental brand NXT, and the 25th Great American Bash event overall. It took place on Sunday, July 30, 2023, at the H-E-B Center at Cedar Park in the Austin suburb of Cedar Park, Texas. Unlike the previous three years, which aired as special episodes of NXT , the 2023 event aired via livestreaming, marking the first Great American Bash to air on both Peacock and the WWE Network, but it would be the only to air via livestreaming as the event returned to being a television special of NXT in 2024.

Seven matches were contested at the event, including one on the pre-show. In the main event, Carmelo Hayes defeated Ilja Dragunov to retain the NXT Championship. In other prominent matches, "Dirty" Dominik Mysterio defeated Wes Lee and Mustafa Ali to retain the NXT North American Championship and Tiffany Stratton defeated Thea Hail in a submission match to retain the NXT Women's Championship. The event was notable for the professional wrestling in-ring debut of Olympic Gold medallist Gable Steveson.

The Great American Bash is a professional wrestling event established in 1985. Following WWE's acquisition of World Championship Wrestling (WCW) in March 2001, [2] the promotion revived the event as their own annual pay-per-view (PPV) in 2004, [3] which continued until 2009. Following this 2009 event, The Great American Bash was discontinued as a PPV. In 2012, WWE revived the event to be held as a special episode of SmackDown but was again discontinued. In 2020, WWE again revived the event, this time for the developmental brand NXT as an annual television special of the NXT program. [4]

On May 28, 2023, during Battleground, it was announced that the 11th Great American Bash under the WWE banner, the fourth annual for NXT, and 25th overall, would be held on July 30 at the H-E-B Center at Cedar Park in the Austin suburb of Cedar Park, Texas. Instead of airing as a television special like the previous three events, the 2023 event was held as a livestreaming event, marking the first Great American Bash to air on WWE's livestreaming platforms, Peacock in the United States and the WWE Network in most international markets. [5] [6]

Storylines

The event comprised seven matches, including one on the pre-show, that resulted from scripted storylines. Results were predetermined by WWE's writers on the NXT brand, [7] [8] while storylines were produced on WWE's weekly television program, NXT, and the supplementary online streaming show, Level Up .

At the end of the second week's episode of the Gold Rush special on June 27, Bron Breakker went berserk in Shawn Michaels' office before storming out of the room screaming that he had done his best in NXT and Michaels could not control him. [9] The following week, during a promo where Breakker talked about his match against Raw's Seth "Freakin" Rollins for the World Heavyweight Championship during the first week's Gold Rush special, he was interrupted by Ilja Dragunov, who said that Breakker was between him and the NXT Championship. The two then brawled. [10] On July 7, Michaels announced via Twitter that Dragunov and Breakker would face each other on the next episode, with the winner receiving a match against Carmelo Hayes for the NXT Championship at The Great American Bash. [11] The following week, Dragunov won the match. [12]

At the end of the second week's episode of the Gold Rush special on June 27, Tiffany Stratton defeated Thea Hail to controversially retain the NXT Women's Championship; Hail had Stratton in the Kimura lock submission, but due to a distraction by Drew Gulak and Charlie Dempsey at ringside, the referee did not see Stratton tap out. [9] Three weeks later, Hail wanted a rematch against Stratton for her title at The Great American Bash, which Stratton accepted. Hail also wanted to add a submission match stipulation, but Stratton declined, stating that only she can add stipulations. Hail then put Stratton into a Kimura lock, and Stratton accepted the additional stipulation. [13]

For several weeks, a series of segments showed Tony D'Angelo being arrested, with Channing "Stacks" Lorenzo doing anything to free him, while dealing with Gallus (Joe Coffey, Mark Coffey, and Wolfgang). On the July 11 episode of NXT, Stacks defeated Joe in a match. Per the pre-match stipulation, D'Angelo was freed and the charges were dropped. [12] At a special "homecoming" celebration for D'Angelo the following week, The Family (D'Angelo and Lorenzo) challenged Gallus for the NXT Tag Team Championship at The Great American Bash, which Gallus accepted. [13]

During a battle royal to determine the number one contender for the NXT Women's Championship on the June 6 episode of NXT, Blair Davenport showed up at ringside and called out Roxanne Perez. Perez and Davenport brawled at ringside, and Tatum Paxley cost Perez the match. [14] The following week, Perez defeated Paxley, and after the match, she called out Davenport. [15] On the July 4 episode of NXT, Davenport defeated Perez. [10] Two weeks later, during a split screen interview, they both agreed to a rematch at The Great American Bash. [13] The following week, it was announced that the match would be a Weapons Wild match. [16]

During the first week's episode of the Gold Rush special on June 20, Wes Lee defeated Tyler Bate to retain the NXT North American Championship, with Mustafa Ali as the special guest referee. [17] The following week during a backstage segment, Lee confronted Ali about how he refereed the match. Bate then showed up and told Ali that there was no telling who would have won had the match been called fairly. Later that same night, a match between Ali and Bate was scheduled for the next episode, [9] which was won by Ali. After the match, Ali challenged Lee for the title at The Great American Bash, [10] which was made official on July 9. [18] However, Lee lost the title to Raw's "Dirty" Dominik Mysterio on the July 18 episode following interference from Mysterio's fellow Judgment Day stablemates. [13] The following week, a triple threat match between Mysterio, Lee, and Ali was scheduled for The Great American Bash. [16]

On the July 25 episode of NXT, Gable Steveson had to make a decision about his career, then he was interrupted by Baron Corbin, who suggested that Steveson should just not go back to NXT. Steveson answered that Corbin made his decision easier and challenged him to a match at The Great American Bash, which was later official. [16]
