Izzi Dame has accepted Zaria’s challenge for WWE NXT Halloween Havoc, but she made it clear that she wants to settle her personal issues with the champion without putting the title on the line.
The confrontation took place during the October 20 episode of WWE NXT. Zaria confronted Dame after her victory over Layla Diggs. After weeks of mind games and attempts to expose the champion’s past, Dame finally got the reaction she wanted. However, Zaria offered her a championship match, which Dame surprisingly turned down.
Zaria appeared to have had enough of Dame’s attempts to dig into her past. For several weeks, Dame has teased that she would expose the champion’s true identity. She even brought out old photos and videos that appeared to show Zaria during her high school days without her trademark face paint.
After Dame defeated Layla Diggs, Zaria came to the ring to confront her. The champion questioned what Dame was trying to prove and stated that she was tired of the mind games.
Zaria also pointed out that Izzi Dame could have earned a shot at the NXT Women’s North American Championship in other ways. However, she decided to end their back-and-forth by offering Dame a title match at Halloween Havoc on Saturday, October 31.
Dame gave Zaria a thumbs-up before taking the microphone and accepting the match. However, she then surprised the champion by turning down the title opportunity.
“Don’t worry about putting that little title on the line. See you at Halloween Havoc, Princess,” Dame told Zaria before leaving the ring.
Calling Zaria “princess” was her one final taunt before they face off at the upcoming event.
For Zaria, the upcoming match is a chance to silence Dame and put an end to the mind games without worrying about defending her championship.
