Perez won the women’s Iron Survivor Challenge at Deadline over the weekend to earn a title match. She was scheduled to receive the opportunity at New Year’s Evil in January.
She started off tonight’s program but was interrupted by men’s Iron Survivor Challenge winner Grayson Waller. Waller was later chased away by NXT Champion Bron Breakker and while Perez was in the ring, she was ambushed by Mandy Rose.
Perez got on the microphone and issued a challenge to Rose for tonight instead of waiting for New Year’s Evil.
