WWE’s main roster brands, RAW and SmackDown, always see new talent making appearances from developmental territories. Last week, however, a pair of wrestlers debuted on the blue brand that resulted in a loss. This week, the failed debutants Lash Legend and Jakara Jackson landed on WWE RAW and immediately impacted a major title match.
WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions Jade Cargill and Bianca Belair battled IYO SKY and Kairi Sane for their titles on this week’s red-branded episode. Notably, Legend and Jackson had fought the champions last week during their SmackDown debut but failed to dethrone them.
This week, the Meta Four wrestlers watched the match unfold from ringside. Both Damage CTRL and the reigning champs were on equal footing. During the match, however, IYO SKY found herself near the NXT stars.
The Japanese star had a verbal spat with them, which resulted in Jackson pulling SKY’s hair and Legend hitting her with a mean elbow to the face. Unaware of this, Bianca Belair finished The Genius of the SKY with a KOD and picked up the win.
This was yet another loss for Damage CTRL due to other wrestlers present in the arena. It will be interesting to see if the freshly turned babyface stable goes after The Meta Four or not.
