She added that she should be the NXT Women’s Champion. She was soon interrupted by Izzi Dame, who said that she deserved a shot at the NXT Women’s Champion because she had already beaten Lola. Lola then interrupted both of them and said that although they had both beaten her, she had beaten them when it really mattered. Lola agreed to give Izzi a title shot on next week’s episode of NXT.
- Afterwards, Kendal Grey entered the ring and declared that she would not stop pursuing the NXT Women’s title. While Izzi and Kendal were exchanging verbal jabs with Lola, Wren Sinclair sneaked into the ring from behind and attacked Kelani with her crutches. The babyfaces Lola, Kendal, and Wren ended up standing tall in the ring.
