TAG MATCH: Raquel Gonzalez & Cora Jade vs Feroz & Leon; The proposed match is very interesting and sees Cora and Raquel working very well. Even Leon and Feroz are no less with the two who compete in splendid ones outside the ring.
Raquel Gonzalez and Cora Jade got together to take on Yulisa Leon and Valentina Feroz in the WWE NXT Women's Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic.
Raquel Gonzalez and Cora Jade got together
The latter duo tried to work on Gonzalez's arm but could not damage the former NXT Women's Champion.
However, Raquel's entry completely overturns the situation with this one who, after scoring the Chingona bomb, literally throws Cora on the now lifeless opponent on the mat, allowing her to obtain the final pin. Result: win by pinfall of Cora Jade and Raquel Gonzalez.
To kickstart this week's show, Dolph Ziggler and Robert Roode (The Dirty Dawgs) teamed up to face NXT Champion Bron Breakker and Tommaso Ciampa. Ciampa even came out wearing similar attire to the champion. The former NXT Champion scored the victory for his team, delivering a Fairytale Ending on Ziggler.
However, once the match had concluded, it was revealed that a huge Triple Threat match would take place next week, on a special Roadblock edition of NXT 2.0. WWE NXT Champion Raquel Gonzalez is the top wrestler in NXT Women’s division.
She worked her way up and earned the moniker of “Big Mami Cool”. This is similar to Kevin Nash’s nickname of “Big Daddy Cool” back in the day. Although Raquel hasn’t met Nash as of yet, she did meet the Boss Man, Vince Mcmahon.
She said McMahon popped up a couple of weeks ago at the WWE Performance Center. She admitted she hadn’t had much interaction with him. “The first encounter, I was backstage at Raw with Rhea Ripley. We were standing there together, and he was like, ‘Well, uber Amazon.’ McMahon had gone above and beyond for WWE and is showing no signs of stopping.
The wrestlers in and out of the company have immense respect for McMahon. This is what happens when you give opportunities to deserving candidates. WWE NXT is highly ranked among the fans, with some even arguing it’s better than the main roster.
After the match, Melo announced that he would defend his title in a ladder match at NXT Stand & Deliver. The two superstars delivered an excellent title match to cap off the night. The entire episode needed to be lifted after a strong opening match.
