Feeling under the weather? Even battling the flu couldn't stop me from bringing you the latest from NXT! This week's show might have been a bit lighter on the women's division, but let's break down the highlights, shall we?
Kelani Jordan vs. Lola Vice: A Clash of Styles
Before the bell even rang, Kelani Jordan launched an attack, dropkicking Lola Vice to the outside. But Vice quickly retaliated, taking control with a series of strikes and submission attempts. The match was a back-and-forth battle, with Jordan showcasing her athleticism and Vice her cunning. After a commercial break, Jordan nearly secured a victory with a Frog Splash and One Of A Kind, but Vice countered effectively. The match ended when Vice used a spinning backfist to secure the pinfall victory.
This match solidified both competitors, with the result making sense and setting the stage for Jordan's future.
