Stephanie Vaquer Makes Official In-Person NXT Debut on Tuesday’s NXT Show

Tuesday’s WWE NXT show in Chesterfield, Missouri featured Stephanie Vaquer making her official in-person debut on the NXT brand.

During the show, Giulia was seen backstage with Sarah Schreiber and was asked what she expects to hear from Roxanne Perez and Cora Jade tonight. Before Giulia could answer, she was distracted by a mysterious person off-screen who she said was her “old friend” and walked away.

In a follow-up segment, Perez came out to the ring and talked about her victory over Giulia to retain her NXT Women’s Championship and mocked the fans for thinking their international chosen one was going to become the new NXT Women’s Champion. Perez continued to mock her fans and doubters stating that they are all so predictable and you will prop someone else up and she will be drinking the tears of your new flavors of the month. Perez then stated that she doesn’t have to drink alone any more and a new friendship is starting to fire up.

This led to Jade coming out to the ring and talked about how for the past nine months she has been at home, all she kept hearing was this being the deepest division in NXT but her name was never mentioned. Jade talked about how this pissed her off and wanted to make sure everyone paid for forgetting about her. After some more words, Jade stated that she is going to make NXT and Perez deserves to be the NXT Women’s Champion. After some more words, Jade talked about their friendship has been mended and that is bad for the deepest division in WWE.

This led to Giulia’s music playing and made her way to the ring before stopping. Jade held open the ropes and told Giulia to get into the ring. This led to Vaquer’s music playing and her making her surprise appearance. Vaquer came out and stood along with Giulia leading to the two rushing to the ring and engaged in a brawl with Jade and Perez that ended with Jade and Perez being cleared out of the ring. Giulia and Vaquer then both picked up the NXT Women’s title at the same time and held it up as Perez and Jade looked on from the outside.
