Izzi Dame wins Women’s North American title on WWE NXT
A new Women’s North American Champion has been crowned.
Izzi Dame walked away with the Women’s North American title on Tuesday after Blake Monroe was banned from the building for attacking Thea Hail before their scheduled match. Despite the attack, Hail said she would defend the title in an open challenge. Izzi Dame answered the challenge, jumping Hail from behind after Paxley had come down to accept. Dame won the title after hitting the Dame Over off the turnbuckle.
NXT opened with Hail immediately being jumped by Monroe, who quickly threw Hail into the steel steps. She then grabbed a steel chair and started wailing Hail with it until the attack was broken up by security. Backstage, an angry Ava confronted Monroe and banned her from the building, ending any chance of a potential match.
The canceled match comes as Fightful reported on Tuesday that Monroe was being considered for a call-up to the main roster.
Monroe inadvertently lost the Women’s North American Championship to Hail last month following a botch finish to their match led to a Hail win. A rematch had been built up in recent weeks on NXT television with a disheveled Monroe lamenting about her championship loss.
