NXDOMAIN means there is no data of any type for the queried owner
name.

NOERROR means the query completed successfully, with no error. It
might mean in your case that there is other data with that owner
name, but no RRset of the requested type.
IOW, when you have a TXT and A record with the same owner:
sample 7200 IN A 192.0.2.53
sample 7200 IN TXT "This is a sample."
* 7200 IN A 192.0.2.101
If you delete the A record, the TXT is still there, and your wildcard
A record in the zone would not be used for that name.

That's the best guess I can come up with without seeing the query and
the zone data. If you need more help you will have to share that
information.
