NXT kicked off with the well-promoted triple threat tag match to determine the number one contenders for the brand’s Women’s Tag Team Title. In the end, Zoey Stark & Io Shirai emerged victorious.

Shirai certainly expressed her dislike for Stark, but the odd couple was able to coexist enough to defeat Raquel Gonzalez & Dakota Kai and Shotzi Blackheart & Ember Moon in Tuesday evening’s opener.

Shirai started the bout off hot, but the NXT Women’s Champion made her presence known throughout the bout. Matters began to break down early, as the referee lost control of the bout and the fight swiftly spilled to the outside. This battle was chock full of dives and sentons that sent the Capitol Wrestling Center into a frenzy.

The entire CWC is on their feet!

The tale of the tussle happened to be the chemistry between Shirai and Stark, and the finish came when Shirai hit a palm strike uppercut and nailed her signature moonsault on Kai for the win.

As a result, Stark and Shirai will challenge Candice LeRae and Indi Hartwell at NXT Great American Bash next week.
