Tegan Nox is back in NXT, much to the chagrin of Candice LeRae. Nox’s return somewhat cost LeRae and Indi Hartwell their NXT Women’s Tag Titles at Great American Bash.
Nox was the star behind the charging battery vignettes fans have been seeing for weeks, and that charge reached 100% during LeRae and Hartwell’s title defense. LeRae was all sorts of shocked when Nox stepped onto the stage at the Capitol Wrestling Center.

Io Shirai and Zoey Stark made the most of the moment, as they disposed of LeRaeto hit a vicious finish on Hartwell for the 1-2-3. After the bout, Nox came down to ringside to let out her aggression against LeRae with some well-placed pugilism against the woman who put her on the shelf. Nox has been out of action for over a year after she tore her ACL, and she wrestled a dark match this past Monday before WWE RAW.
.@CandiceLeRae & @indi_hartwell's SHOCK is @shirai_io & @ZoeyStarkWWE's GAIN.
Ushering in a NEW ERA in the #WWENXT Women's Tag Team Division, @shirai_io & @ZoeyStarkWWE are your NEW tag team champions! #AndNew #NXTGAB #WWENXT pic.twitter.com/m0dz01Bmqe
