There was a point during the show when NXT Women’s Champion Roxanne Perez accused General Manager Ava of being the reason why she was not moved to Raw or SmackDown in the 2024 WWE Draft. Perez, like all champions in the Draft, were protected from being selected. Ava wanted to speak to Perez about the next challenger to her title but Perez was not interested, so Ava looked into her office and told the individual inside that they’ll have to break the news to Roxanne at another time. At the end of Spring Breakin’, it was revealed that Chelsea Green will be challenging Perez for the title on 5/7.
