WWE NXT Stars Had ‘No Idea’ They’d Be Drafted To SmackDown

WWE NXT Women’s Tag Team Champions Isla Dawn and Alba Fyre were called up to the main roster on the first night of this year’s Draft that kicked off last week on SmackDown. 

They were sent to SmackDown. On Tuesday’s NXT, they’ll defend their titles against Kayden Carter and Katana Chance. 

While on Busted Open Radio, the NXT Tag Team Champions talked about being drafted.

Fyre: “I’ve been saying it for days. I still don’t feel like it’s quite settled in yet. We had no idea. No idea that we were going to be drafted.”

Dawn: “s you could tell by our eyeballs going (shocked).”

Fyre: “But it means so much. We both worked really, really hard for this for a long time and you just know what it’s like getting things like this. You know you’re being appreciated and yeah, it just means the world.”

Dawn: “The timing of it with Stand & Deliver being a month ago and that was our second TV tag match. We’ve only been together a short time.”
