#2 The rise of Tegan Nox

The Fatal 4-Way Elimination between Mia Yim, Tegan Nox, Candice LeRae, and Dakota Kai was one of the highlights of the night and kicked off the action on the first night of the NXT Great American Bash.

All four women were looking for a chance to win and become the No. 1 contender to the NXT Women’s Championship, and none of them were ready to back down from the opportunity.

The match started with all four women going hard at each other, and Mia Yim was able to hit the Sole Food on LeRae to score the first elimination of the night.

This left Dakota Kai vulnerable as two babyfaces who have a history against her looked to take her out first. The HBIC hit Nox with the Sole Food but could not get anywhere with it as Kai rolled Yim up to get a pin and eliminate her.

It was down to the two bitter enemies and since Raquel Gonzalez had been banned from ringside, she could not help her heelish leader in the final fight. The Girl with the Shiniest Wizard took some hard hits from Kai and then hit her with the Molly-Go-Round followed by the Shiniest Wizard to pick up the victory on NXT.

WWE NXT has a new Women's challenger ready

We all know that Nox is one of the hardest workers in the business today and she did extremely well throughout the match. While most of the fans had their money on Kai winning this one, it was good to see WWE award the victory to Nox even though she’s a babyface. Matches against Io Shirai will truly help her showcase her talent.
