IMG Credit: WWEMoving on down? There are all kinds of wrestlers on the WWE payroll, to the point where they have been separated into three different groups. This includes both the two main rosters and the NXT developmental roster. NXT has often been treated as the third brand and you will occasionally see a main roster wrestler appear on the show. Now we are seeing that again with a title involved.

Over the weekend, NXT held a live event in Venice, Florida. During the show, SmackDown’s Shotzi made a surprise appearance, joining Gigi Dolin in a match against Tatum Paxley and NXT Women’s Champion Lyra Valkyria. Following the match, Valkyria agreed to defend the title against Shotzi on this coming week’s NXT. Shotzi wrestled for NXT from 2019-2021 before being moved up to the main roster. There is no word on if this will be a one off appearance or a permanent move to NXT.
