After a year-long absence due to a legitimate knee injury, NXT superstar Nikkita Lyons has made her long-awaited return to the ring. Lyons had been written off television back in January after suffering a torn ACL, but she was recently spotted in the crowd at the Performance Center, signaling her imminent comeback.
The WWE took to Twitter to share the exciting news, posting a video of Lyons making her entrance with the caption, “LOOK WHO’S BACK!!! #WWENXT” (source: @WWE).
During Lyons’ absence, a mystery attacker had been wreaking havoc in NXT, targeting several superstars. It was eventually revealed that Blair Davenport was behind the attacks. Davenport, who is set to compete in the Iron Survivor Challenge match at the upcoming Deadline event, now has a heated feud waiting for her upon Lyons’ return.
