While Bron Breakker's out-of-the-blue challenge to Seth Rollins and the World Heavyweight Championship capped another special episode of NXT, many members of the WWE Universe are still reeling from the results of the number one contender battle royal for the NXT Women's title. Thea Hail outlasted all other competitors in the women's division, last eliminating Cora Jade and Dana Brooke to earn a title opportunity in the near future.
