Women’s Iron Survivor Challenge Competitors Kick Off WWE NXT

The go-home episode of WWE NXT emanated, live from Orlando, Florida, tonight as it geared up for the big event scheduled for the coming Saturday. Last week’s episode of NXT featured a special announcement from John Cena regarding Deadline.

He announced all the competitors for the Women’s Iron Survivor Challenge, which is set for this weekend. The winner of the match will receive a shot at the NXT Women’s Championship at New Year’s Evil.

Cena announced that the match would see Kelani Jordan, Sol Ruca, Jordynne Grace, Lola Vice, and the WWE Evolve Women’s Champion, Kendal Grey, and these five women opened the show.

This led to chaos erupting in the ring when Kelani Jordan and Jordynn Grace, who were involved in the TNA Knockouts World Championship match last week, got physical with each other, and a fight broke out to kick-start the show.
