Roxanne Perez and Tiffany Stratton square off in Women's Breakout Tournament Finals
The first-ever NXT Women’s Breakout Tournament has taken over Tuesday nights in the past few weeks as eight women vied to etch their name in NXT history.
The tournament featured eight rising Superstars looking to make a name for themselves and show the NXT Universe what they’re all about. Even more important, though, is the prize that awaits the winner: the opportunity to challenge for the NXT Women’s Championship.
The inaugural tournament featured new and familiar names such as Nikkita Lyons, Lash Legend, Tatum Paxley and Fallon Henley along with newcomers Roxanne Perez, Kiana James, Arianna Grace, and Sloane Jacobs looking to make an immediate impact.
After a wild opening round, Lyons was forced to bow out of her semifinal match with Henley due to injury allowing Toffany Stratton to step up in her place and punch a ticket to the finals on one side of the bracket. Meanwhile, upstart Perez battled her way through the other side of the bracket with a shocking victory over the colossal Legend in the semifinals.
Who will make history as the first ever Women’s Breakout Tournament Champion? Tune in to NXT 2.0 Tonight at 8/7 C on USA to find out!
