The NXT UK women’s division just got deeper on the April 1 edition of the show. After she reportedly signed with WWE recently, Millie McKenzie made her debut to confront reigning champion, Kay Lee Ray. In the same episode, Stevie Turner (formerly known as Bobbi Tyler) made her debut in a losing effort to Aoife Valkyrie.

McKenzie immediately thrust herself into the spotlight as she confronted long reigning NXT UK Women’s Champion Kay Lee Ray. McKenzie was blindsided by Isla Dawn and looked to be at the mercy of Ray and Dawn before Meiko Satomura made the save for the former Sendai Girls tag team and junior champion. McKenzie had a brief run in NXT UK in 2018 but has taken time away to refine her game and is now ready to be a force in the division.

Stevie Turner made her NXT UK debut in a losing effort to the unbeaten Valkyrie. Turner is most known for her tour of Japan with Stardom in 2019 as a member of the Tokyo Cyber Squad faction. Turner is a bright prospect and one who didn’t look out of place during her Japanese tour. Despite losing in her debut, Turner will no doubt become a player in the division someday.
