Blair Davenport moved to NXT 2.0 and made her in-ring debut for the brand on August 23, 2022. She unsuccessfully challenged for the NXT Women’s and UK Women’s Titles the following month at Worlds Collide.

The match pitted her against Meiko Satomura and the eventual winner Mandy Rose. The premium live event officially bid farewell to NXT UK as several notable stars from the brand were moved to Orlando, Florida.


Blair Davenport is the mystery attacker on WWE NXT

Davenport was removed from television after Worlds Collide. In April, WWE started playing vignettes of a mystery woman responsible for attacking several stars, such as Nikkita Lyons and Sol Ruca.

Nikkita and Sol were injured then, and the angle was used to write them off the television. The attacker also targeted Roxanne Perez on the go-home episode of NXT before Battleground.

Dani Palmer called out the mystery attacker on the latest episode of NXT. Blair Davenport sneaked up from behind to take out Palmer. She then took her mask off to reveal herself face to the WWE Universe.

It remains to be seen how Shawn Michaels will book the top gaijin now that she's back on NXT.
