After defeating Raquel Gonzalez for the WWE NXT Women’s Championship at Halloween Havoc, Mandy Rose kicked off the show on Tuesday night. She celebrated the victory of Gigi Dolin and Jacy Jayne. Rose told the NXT 2.0 Universe that the rest of Toxic Attraction was busy beating down Zoey Stark backstage.
Io Shirai took things personally and came out to challenge her to a match. Rose said she was ready for the challenge and attacked Shirai before throwing her out of the ring.
The Genius of the Sky returned to suplex Rose in the corner and set up a moonsault. Dolin and Jayne came out to make the save and beat down the former NXT Women's Champion.
Kacy Catanzaro and Kayden Carter evened the odds on NXT 2.0 and sent the champions running.
NXT 2.0 started well with the new women’s champion in the ring. Her promo seemed much better than the ones she delivered over the past several weeks.
Shirai is the best women’s wrestler in NXT 2.0, and she will give Rose a great match whenever the two women meet. However, losing to Rose is something that can really damage Shirai’s image.
