Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler are slated to defend the Women’s Tag Team Titles against Dakota Kai and Raquel Gonzalez on this week’s episode of NXT.
Jax took to Instagram to write the following:
“Shayna & I have been in the ring with the BEST OF THE BEST in this business the last couple of weeks, and now we have to step down to give these girls a courtesy title opportunity. Heard what you ladies had to say @dakotakai_wwe & @raquelwwe and it will be our honor to teach you ladies some respect. I’ve spent years working all over the world, busting my ass, collecting awards, breaking the mold, creating a name for myself. Carving a place out in history for a woman like me! While you’ve been sitting comfy in NXT for years @raquelwwe , without Nia Jax, you wouldn’t be here.”
