Jessamyn Duke Debuts In NXT
But while inaugural women’s champions were being crowned in NXT UK, former UFC fighters were making their in-ring debuts in NXT USA, with Jessamyn Duke teaming with her MMA friends Shayna Baszler and Marina Shafir to beat NXT Women’s Champion Kairi Sane, Io Shirai and Deonna Purrazzo in a house show main event.
This means all four of the UFC Horsewomen are now active wrestlers in WWE, with Ronda Rousey as Raw Women’s champion, Baszler a former NXT Women’s champion, Shafir impressing in her own recent NXT debut , and now finally Duke debuting at this NXT live event in Florida.
The Wrestling Observer Newsletter has reported plans are in place for a Four Horsewomen vs Four Horsewomen match at Survivor Series, with Rousey, Baszler, Shafir and Duke vs Charlotte, Heel Mode Becky Lynch, Bayley and Sasha Banks – but November could be too soon to feature Duke and Shafir on such a big stage. And Becky and Charlotte aren’t exactly on speaking terms right now.
YOU’RE SUCH A HEEL, CHARLOTTE! Almost as good a heel…
