WWE NXT Star Returning Soon
The WWE NXT name has been out of action since January.
Nov 21, 2023
WWE NXT Superstar Nikkita Lyons is apparently set for a return soon.
Responding on Twitter/X to a question about her recovery progress, Lyons replied, "Will be back soon." Prior to this, she had also posted:
"To the ones who’ve been supporting me throughout my recovery, I FRICKEN LOVE YOU. Live your best life, attack your goals, & ignore the haters. We vibrate in love over here babyyy."
Near the beginning of the year, Lyons was written off TV to undergo surgery. This occurred on the January 24, 2023 episode of NXT, as she was attacked in the parking lot by a mystery assailant (later revealed to be Blair Davenport.)
Her latest match in WWE was a victory over Jakara Jackson on the January 20 edition of NXT Level Up, with her last bout on the main NXT show being a 21-woman battle royal at New Year's Evil.
Lyons was showcased in several vignettes prior to her NXT debut, which came in February 2022. She went on to participate in the inaugural women's edition of the Breakout Tournament, before forming a tag team with Zoey Stark. The duo split late in the year, with Stark betraying Nikkita and beating her down.
