The NXT Women’s North American Championship has officially been vacated, marking a significant shift in the championship landscape of NXT. This announcement was made by Stephanie Vaquer and Ava during the opening segment of NXT, setting the stage for an exciting future for the women's division.
Ava emphasized that although Vaquer successfully retained both her titles last week, the North American title deserves to be defended more frequently. This sentiment resonated with both Ava and Vaquer, leading to the mutual decision that Vaquer should relinquish the title. They also revealed that a new champion will be crowned at the upcoming Stand & Deliver event in a thrilling six-woman ladder match.
In a surprising turn, Vaquer agreed to relinquish the title but stated that she wanted the opportunity to choose her opponent for the Stand & Deliver event. This condition added an intriguing layer to the scenario, as it opened up the floor for potential challengers.
Shortly after this announcement, Jordynne Grace made her way to the ring, eager to make her case for why she should be the one to face Vaquer. However, the situation escalated when Jaida Parker interrupted, leading to a heated argument between the two competitors over who should earn the coveted title shot.
The confrontation quickly intensified, resulting in a brawl that required security to intervene and separate the two fighters. This chaos not only heightened the stakes for the upcoming championship match but also showcased the fierce competition within the NXT women’s division.
To provide context, Stephanie Vaquer recently achieved a remarkable feat by defeating Giulia to win the NXT Women’s title at the Roadblock event last month, thereby becoming a double champion. She successfully defended both titles just last week, first facing off against Jaida Parker to retain the Women’s title, followed by a main event showdown where she defeated Fallon Henley to maintain her grip on the North American title.
As the NXT universe anticipates the upcoming Stand & Deliver event, all eyes will be on who will emerge as the new champion in the six-woman ladder match. With tensions running high and multiple contenders vying for the title, fans can expect an electrifying showdown that will showcase the incredible talent within the NXT women's division.
