As we reported last night here on eWn, there were several late-changes made to this week’s WWE RAW TV tapings.
One of the changes was Tegan Nox being pulled from her scheduled NXT Women’s Championship match with Becky Lynch. Instead, Lynch faced off against Natalya on RAW while Nox worked a match at the WWE Main Event TV tapings. Natalya was originally set to work Main Event.
According to a report from Fightful Select, one version of the script called for Becky Lynch to hold an open challenge that Nox would answer. It was added that “The Man” had pushed for Nox to get the match.
The plan throughout the course of the day had been for Nox vs. Lynch to take place, with their match having already been laid out with TJ Wilson as the producer. Just 10 minutes before doors opened for the show, the match was changed. There is still no word on any particular reason being given for the change.
Since being drafted to WWE RAW, Nox hasn’t competed on the brand. Additionally, there haven’t been any significant creative plans for her over the past several months. One source said there is “optimistic hope” that Becky Lynch’s open challenge will continue moving forward.
