Episode notes

Even in the aftermath of WrestleMania wrestling simply doesn’t stop on a brand new episode of Tights and Fights!

Hal, Danielle and Lindsey mourn the loss of fallen Mami, Rhea Ripley. With the injury putting her out for several months, who will be the new Women’s World Champion? And does this mean that Liv Morgan finally gets an attitude to sink her teeth into?

Plus, Sami Zayn got quite a moment, with a grand Montreal entrance and a successful Intercontinental title defense. But when will Chad Gable and his new attitude get to wear the gold?

The Main Event

As WWE moves into a new era, NXT is also getting shuffled around a lot. With the draft coming up, a lot of stars from Tuesday will be moved up to the main roster; and there’s even word that NXT may move into “third brand” territory once more.

The Three Count

Danielle put over the world coming to Nyla Rose’s defense.

Lindsey put over Sami’s hometown welcome.

Hal put over the spoils of Cody’s victory.

Hosted by Hal Lublin, Danielle Radford and Dimitry Pompee
