First Match Made Official For WWE NXT Heatwave

WWE is preparing for their next special episode of NXT 2.0, and they have quite a championship match to start things off with. Zoey Stark made her return in time for the 20-Woman Battle Royal last week on NXT 2.0. Stark shocked everyone when she eliminated Cora Jade and earned a title shot against NXT Women’s Champion Mandy Rose.

Stark opened this week’s edition of NXT 2.0. She talked about her road to recovery and vowed to end Mandy Rose’s record-breaking reign as the NXT Women’s Champion.

WWE announced that Stark will take on Rose for the NXT Women’s Championship at NXT Heatwave. The special edition of NXT 2.0 will take place on Tuesday, August 16th.
