Natalya vs. Cora Jade added to WWE NXT
Natalya and Cora Jade are set to face off in singles action for the first time ever.
WWE has announced that Natalya vs. Jade will take place on NXT this Tuesday night. At NXT Spring Breakin’ last week, Jade & Nikkita Lyons defeated Natalya & Lash Legend in a tag team match.
Jade pinned Legend to win last week’s match.
Natalya and Jade have been feuding since Natalya made a surprise appearance on NXT last month. Natalya interrupted Jade for what initially appeared to be a friendly interaction, but she then attacked Jade and put her in the Sharpshooter.
In storyline, Natalya attacked Jade as part of an attempt to cut off up-and-coming wrestlers before they move up to the main roster and go after her. Jade has said that Natalya was her idol growing up and her first favorite women’s wrestler.
Here’s the updated lineup for this Tuesday’s NXT:
- Natalya vs. Cora Jade
- Toxic Attraction (Gigi Dolin & Jacy Jayne) vs. Wendy Choo & Roxanne Perez
- Alba Fyre (formerly known as Kay Lee Ray) in action
- The NXT Women’s Breakout Tournament begins
