NXT is live in Atlanta!
Tonight’s episode will see former WWE Women’s Champion Bianca Belair return to the developmental brand to defend her Women’s Tag Team titles with Naomi against Lash Legend and Jakara Jackson. Now Legend and Jackson are no strangers to Belair as the duo has previously lost to her and Jade Cargill.
However, it’s a brand new year and Lash Legend and Jakara Jackson are stronger than the last time they faced the tag team champions. With Naomi being a replacement for Cargill, that could be a prime opportunity to expose the cracks within the tag team champions. Will Lash Legend and Jakara Jackson pull off the upset and become the new WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions?
In a second title match, Shotzi will finally get her shot at the NXT Women’s North American Champion. Thus far, Shotzi has gotten the better of Fallon Henley and actually pinned the champion to earn an opportunity for the belt. However, never count out Fallon Henley, who has successfully defended her title three times. Add into the fact that Fatal Influence is lurking on the outside and the classic heel shenanigans may be too much for Shotzi to handle. Can Shotzi overcome the odds and win her first singles title in WWE?
On a special episode of the Waller effect, Austin Theory and Grayson Waller will have the NXT Champion as their guest. Oba Femi is coming off a strong win over Eddy Thorpe last week; what does the future hold for the reigning NXT Champion?
