Lola Vice wins WWE NXT Women’s Breakout Tournament

Lola Vice has won the NXT Women’s Breakout Tournament.

Vice defeated Kelani Jordan in the finals of the tournament Tuesday’s NXT. The finish of the match had Elektra Lopez, who was seconding Lopez, distract Jordan as she was going for a split-legged moonsault. The distraction was enough for Vice to dodge the moonsault, then connected with a spinning kick to the head for the win.

As a result of Vice’s win, she has won a contract that will earn her a future NXT Women’s Championship match, a title that is now held by Lyra Valkyria after she defeated Becky Lynch last week for the title. Vice defeated Dani Palmer and Karmen Petrovic to advance to Tuesday’s finals, while Jordan defeated Izzi Dame and Arianna Grace.

When he was NXT General Manager for the night, Cody Rhodes announced that a Men’s Breakout Tournament would take place after the women’s tournament. He also announced that the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic would be returning as well.
