Former WWE Star Nixon Newell and Partner Walk Out of AEW Collision: Real Reason Revealed
A former WWE star and her tag team partner made headlines after reportedly walking out of AEW Collision this past weekend. Fresh reports have now shed new light on the situation and the real reason behind their sudden departure.
Who Are Nixon Newell and Miranda Alize?
The star in question is Nixon Newell, formerly known as Tegan Nox during her WWE run. Newell was released by WWE in November 2024 and made a swift return to the independent wrestling circuit. After about a year on the indies, she made a surprise debut on the October 25 episode of AEW Collision, teaming up with her partner Miranda Alize.
The duo confronted Anna Jay and Tay Melo (collectively known as TayJay) in a backstage segment, setting up a future feud. The following week, Newell and Alize made their in-ring debut, facing Marina Shafir and Megan Bayne in a losing effort.
Walkout at AEW Collision: What Really Happened?
On the most recent episode of Collision, Nixon Newell and Miranda Alize were scheduled for a match against TayJay. However, it was later reported that both women left the building roughly an hour before their match was set to take place.
Initial reports suggested the reason for their walkout was their alleged refusal to “put over” TayJay. However, a new update from Fightful Select has clarified the situation. According to Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful, the duo’s decision was not about losing the match. Instead, they requested more time for their bout against Anna Jay and Tay Melo. When this request was not met, they chose to walk out.
Will We See Nixon Newell and Miranda Alize in AEW Again?
According to Fightful, more updates on Newell and Alize’s brief AEW run are expected in the coming days. Whether or not the duo will return to AEW programming remains to be seen following this walkout incident.
Nixon Newell’s Dream Matches in AEW
Prior to her AEW debut, Nixon Newell appeared on “We Just Talk Wrestling” and revealed several dream opponents she hoped to face in AEW.
“There’s so many. Kris Statlander, that could be a banger. Mercedes Moné, I’d like to run that back with her again. Athena, dude. So many people I want to wrestle — Willow Nightingale, Toni Storm, and Alex Windsor. There’s a big history with Alex too,” Newell shared.
