Post-NXT Vengeance Day Media Call notes

[Chris]

NXT held a media call with Shawn Michaels following the Vengeance Day premium live event to discuss the fallout from Saturday's show.

When asked about NXT wrestlers possibly doing independent dates moving forward following the news that Ivy Nile would be working Booker T’s Reality of Wrestling promotion, Michaels said that the booking was just "a one night deal". He said it was just something where they were helping Booker T out with his upcoming show.

Regarding Dijak, Michaels said that x-rays were taken and, as it turns out, his finger was not broken and was being put back into place.

At one point during the media call, Grayson Waller stormed in and confronted Michaels, running him down and asking why he "wasn't the guy". He was eventually taken away by head trainer Matt Bloom. When Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful asked Michaels what that was about, Michaels said that there was “an incident coming back from Gorilla” between him and Waller, and Waller was "perturbed" at him.

The call finished with discussion on the participants involved in the Women’s Tag Team title match. Michaels said that both Kiana James and Fallon Henley have improved during their time in NXT, and putting them together seemed like “one of those things that worked”. He also said that Katana Chance and Kayden Carter’s futures are still “very bright” and have been the most consistent tag team in NXT.

NXT’s next live premium event will be Stand and Deliver, which will take place at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles on April 1.

Depending how many women they've got confidence in coming through, wouldn't be bad to see K&K and Toxic Attraction going up pretty soonish.

It would help to have a legitimate women's tag division on the main roster (not much faith this is even a goal though) and they have so many women in NXT, I'm not really bothered if they throw together a lot of random pairings to see who has chemistry as a team

 

[Dale]

Yeah that's what I was thinking. I'd rather they throw some women together to make some new tag teams for NXT while sending up the legit ones.

NXT got the hottest chicks just about to make their TV debuts.
