Isla Dawn reacts to being challenged to a match by surprising WWE star
A popular WWE NXT star issued a challenge to a championship match to Isla Dawn and Alba Fyre. Dawn recently shared her reaction to a clip of Lash Legend, the name in question, demanding a title opportunity.
On the latest edition of NXT, Jakara Jackson and Lash Legend locked horns with Karmen Petrovic and Sol Ruca in a tag team match. The Meta Four members scored a comfortable win in under five minutes. After the contest ended, Legend got on a microphone and challenged The Unholy Union for a title match next week on the Great American Bash.
The match for the WWE Women's Tag Team Championship was later made official. One-half of the title holders, Isla Dawn, then took to X (fka Twitter) to share her reaction to the 27-year-old challenging the Scottswoman.
"Cute," she wrote.

Isla Dawn opens up about her time on WWE's UK developmental
Isla Dawn was among the top stars in NXT UK. She was on the developmental brand for four years, between 2018 and 2022, before the eventual move to the United States. She competed as a singles competitor during her time in NXT UK.
WWE shut down the brand in September 2022, with the idea of a relaunch as NXT Europe the following year. However, the same has not happened yet. In an interview with Steve Fall of WrestlingNews.co, Isla Dawn opened up about her experience at NXT UK. She also shared her take on the brand getting shut down.
"It was heartbreaking actually, it really was because I've been with NXT UK kind of from the formation so I have so much attachment to it. So, it was really heartbreaking and it was scary. I found out really quickly that I'd be moving to the UK, so that was great and that was like finally, my dream, I'm going to NXT. But, there was a lot of my friends and a lot of people that I'd grown up alongside in wrestling that never got the same, and it was such a bittersweet moment because I was so excited but I knew they weren't getting that," said Dawn.
