On this week’s WWE NXT, we saw another heel turn. Former NXT UK Women’s Champion Toni Storm turned heel for the first time in her career.

After an eight-month hiatus, Toni returned to in-ring action at NXT TakeOver 31. She and Ember Moon teamed up to form a babyface group.

This week on NXT, Moon faced Candice LeRae in the opening match. LeRae defeated Moon with a superkick and a Wicked Stepsister. However, the assault only started with the loss.

Instead, Moon was stopped mid-run and laid out by Storm, who threw her inside the ring to be destroyed.
