#5 Toni Storm handed Zoey Stark a loss on WWE NXT
Zoey Stark and Toni Storm have had one of the best rivalries in WWE NXT. The two superstars competed in another match on Tuesday night.
Stark took the fight to Storm early and tried to take control. However, she could not hold on for long as Storm threw Stark into the steel steps. The former NXT UK Women’s Champion beatdown Stark and tried to teach her a lesson.
The NXT newcomer tried to make a comeback and nearly stole the victory with a series of pinning combinations. Storm responded by hitting Storm Zero but Stark shocked the NXT Universe by kicking out.
The former NXT UK Women’s Champion decided to try something new and delivered a new finisher to take down Stark and pick up the victory. After the match Storm tried to celebrate before the lights went out.
Franky Monet made her way out to promote her debut next week before walking away.
Stark and Storm put on another great match on NXT this week. The two superstars seem to have a chemistry that can help them stretch this rivalry even longer. One of the two women could go on to challenge Raquel Gonzalez for the NXT Women’s Championship once they are done with the rivalry.
Monet’s debut is something that fans should look forward to. She has done well in other promotions and has the ability to replicate her success in NXT. Creative need to give her a good first match rather than a squash victory.
