May 24, 2022

Thea Hail will debut on the May 31 episode of WWE NXT 2.0.

Hail first appeared on NXT on the May 17 episode, where she announced that she had signed with WWE, and she would be graduating high school the following week. She noted that she would train at the WWE Performance Center while she attended college. During a promo on the May 24 episode, Hail looked ahead to her journey in college and stated that she’s up for the challenge of balancing her responsibilities as a WWE Superstar and a student.

Plus, NXT North American Champion Cameron Grimes will face Nathan Frazer in a non-title bout. On the May 24 episode, Grimes confronted his opponent at In Your House, Carmelo Hayes. After they traded verbal barbs, Grimes noted that Frazer, a newcomer to NXT prime, is arguably faster than Hayes, so he wants to prepare for the title bout by facing someone that might be better than the former champion.

Elsewhere on the show, Toxic Attraction will have a Women’s Championship Summit with their respective contenders ahead of WWE NXT In Your House. On the May 24 episode, Wendy Choo challenged NXT Women’s Champion Mandy Rose to a title match after she left the champion lying. Meanwhile, Katana Chance and Kayden Carter brawled with Gigi Dolin and Jacy Jayne, the NXT Women’s Tag Team Champions, before they issued a challenge for a championship match. Toxic Attraction seemingly accepted the challenges, but they demanded a summit for next week’s show.

Finally, Cora Jade will face Elektra Lopez. Jade was at ringside for Lopez’ match with Alba Fyre on the May 24 episode. After the bout, Lopez argued with Jade to set the stage for their encounter. Previously, Lopez insulted Jade and her friend, NXT newcomer Roxanne Perez.
