IMPACT Wrestling Star Spotted At WWE NXT Halloween Havoc

IMPACT Wrestling, WWE

A top IMPACT Wrestling star has interestingly been pictured in attendance at NXT Halloween Havoc Night One.

In the main event of the show, a title change occurred when Becky Lynch lost her NXT Women’s Championship to fellow Irelander Lyra Valkyria.

The result saw Valkyria unsurprisingly cut an emotional figure as she was embraced by Lynch after the bell, with a touching show of respect.

However, it seems as if Valkryia’s emotion was also shared by a current IMPACT Wrestling champion who was also in attendance for the show at WWE’s Performance Center.

Posting to Twitter after the match concluded, co-holder of the IMPACT Knockouts Tag Championship Killer Kelly uploaded a pair of pictures taken backstage at the PC alongside Valkyria along an emotional post.

Kelly said:

Proud is an understatement

From wrestling each other in Ireland, outside, freezing cold, on a ring with no pads for 20 minutes, to watch her defeat Becky Lynch to become the NEW NXT Women’s Champion.

She deserves the world.

I love you @Real_Valkyria

As well as this Kelly would also re-tweet the moment Lynch presented the title to Valkyria, with another message conveying how much the win meant for her to witness, saying:

I swear to God that one of the screams you hear is not me.

I also swear to God that I didn’t cry from the beginning to the end of the match.

Kelly and Valkyria were previously both members of the NXT UK roster, but Kelly had actually been released by the time Valkyria debuted.

Their most recent match against each other was in wXw in March 2020.

Kelly was not the only special guest in attendance for NXT as Jade Cargill was a keen observer of the main event contest, once again teasing which brand she may end up on.
