#2 The women of NXT shine again
Rhea Ripley and Io Shirai were set to team up on NXT to take on Charlotte Flair and a partner of her choosing. Chelsea Green was revealed to be her tag team partner as the Robert Stone brand got a major push from the pairing.
Green did not seem comfortable fighting against the two superior athletes, as Ripley and Shirai constantly dominated her early on.
However, The Queen of NXT backed her up and got their side back into the match. After the action was traded to and fro, The Joshi Judas prepared for a springboard dropkick on Flair. Green pushed Flair out of the way and took the hit for the team.
This allowed the NXT Women’s Champion to roll Shirai up with her feet on the ropes for the victory.
Did Chelsea Green get an unexpected push on NXT?
This was a good match that allowed the three top women in WWE to compete against one another in a great clash. It also allowed the relatively new Green to get a major push and gave her a chance to prove herself to The Queen.
It will be interesting to see where the Robert Stone brand heads from hereon, especially considering the events that transpired once NXT went off the air.
