Cameras caught up with Candice LeRae as she was arriving at the arena and she was asked her thoughts about TakeOver: New York. She mentioned that while she was excited about her husband, Johnny Gargano's match against Adam Cole, she was also focussed on the NXT Women's Championship. And then she was accosted by Aliyah and Vanessa Borne.
Candice LeRae told Aliyah that she wanted to take her on, and the match was subsequently confirmed as well. The two women are scheduled to clash on next week's show. Aliyah has been in developmental for so long that one wonders if this will be her big breakout moment at last.
Candice LeRae, too, has been a prominent player in NXT, but she needs a breakout moment to truly become a top star. This match could have serious long-term consequences over the long haul in NXT.
