Carmelo Hayes breaks silence after his girlfriend's championship reign ends at 139 days

Carmelo Hayes is a proud partner after his girlfriend's championship reign came to an end at NXT Halloween Havoc. Expressing his pride, he praised her for her incredible efforts.

While Carmelo Hayes is less than a week away from a trip to Saudi Arabia where he will be competing for LA Knight's United States Championship, his girlfriend Kelani Jordan had an incredible defense of her NXT North American Women's Championship.

Kelani Jordan had to face three stars in a gauntlet match, ultimately succumbing to Fallon Henley to end her reign at 139 days. Carmelo Hayes praised his partner for the fight she put up and the bright future awaiting her.

There's no doubt that Kelani Jordan has exceeded all expectations. The fans were firmly on her side as she took on numerous stars in a row. Jazmyn Nyx's interference finally proved to be the straw that broke the camel's back in the match as Fallon Henley took advantage to get the victory.

One interesting part of the post-match angle was the appearance of Zaria, who took Nyx, Jacy Jayne, and Henley out.

While Jordan could be a big ally to Zaria, it's possible that the Australian star is a lone wolf who doesn't require any help.
