WWE NXT Women’s Champion may get two more opponents added to the challengers’ lineup given the current circumstances. She herself offered a title match opportunity to the newly turned heel in Cora Jade. Plus, Nikkita Lyons may just continue to chase her title with another win that could take her back to the title picture.
As noted, Lyons had her eyes set on WWE NXT Women’s Champion Mandy Rose for the past few weeks while reports also claimed that the NXT creative team was very much high on her potential. But a sudden injury provided her with a hindrance as she was forced to withdraw from the Women’s Breakout Tournament.
After making a return, Nikkita was inserted into another championship match opportunity but she also failed to win that 20-Woman Battle Royal that took place two weeks ago on WWE NXT 2.0. However, she will continue her quest to get to the championship picture.
Nikkita will now be in action, next week on NXT 2.0. The Lioness of the revamped NXT brand will square off against her new rival in Kiana James. James verbally blasted Nikkita for her lifestyle choices, last week but that wasn’t enough to move away from those principles. The two will now compete in a match with the winner possibly moving into the title picture.

Plus, Cora Jade will try to stop Zoey Stark from going into the WWE NXT Women’s Title Match against the champion Mandy Rose set for NXT Heatwave. It was Rose who approached Jade this week for a favor. The Toxic Attraction leader wanted Jade to take care of Stark and in return, she was willing to offer a title match opportunity at Heatwave, later this month.
