Former NXT Women’s Tag Team Champions Navigate the Main Roster Waters
In the wake of the 2023 WWE Draft, a host of NXT Superstars, including every female champion, were called up to the main roster. Among them were Isla Dawn and Alba Fyre, the NXT Women’s Tag Team Champions. However, since relinquishing their belts, they have faded from the spotlight.
Inside sources have been probing into WWE’s plans for Isla Dawn and Alba Fyre. It was previously reported that the decision to unify the titles coincided with their promotion to the main roster. The plan to retire the belts emerged around the time of the 2023 WWE Draft. The current NXT women’s division, brimming with young talent, needs to be in a position to support a tag team title scenario. While the NXT Women’s Tag Team Titles are being shelved for now, there’s always a chance they could be reintroduced in the future.
A seasoned member of the WWE creative team revealed to Ringside News that Isla Dawn and Alba Fyre are not considered top-tier talent, leading to their recent slide down the card. However, it was confirmed that there was no ill will or negative sentiment towards them.
Currently, Alba Fyre and Isla Dawn are not scheduled for SummerSlam. The focus is on maximizing box office returns for the event. The former NXT Women’s Tag Team Champions are still remembered despite this.
While they have been absent from television, Isla Dawn and Alba Fyre have continued to participate in live events. Over the weekend, they lost a pair of matches to Katana Chance and Kayden Carter at house shows.
The future of Isla Dawn and Alba Fyre remains to be seen. They have numerous potential storylines, and they could even re-enter the Women’s Tag Team Title picture.
