The WWE Draft 2024 has finally come to a close, marking the beginning of a new era for the company. The recent roster shake-up has brought about a mix of excitement and uncertainty, with several trades and call-ups taking place. Amidst the chaos, there is renewed optimism for the future, particularly for Scottish grapplers Alba Fyre and Isla Dawn, who have been drafted to RAW.
Fyre and Dawn, previously NXT Women’s Tag Team Champions, were called up to SmackDown in the 2023 Draft but failed to make a significant impact, participating in only a handful of matches on the blue brand. The Unholy Union, as they are known, had threatened to wreak havoc on Monday nights, but surprisingly, they have yet to wrestle on RAW. Despite this, they managed to secure a victory over Katana Chance and Kayden Carter on Main Event.
According to a recent report from Fightful Select, WWE officials were caught off guard by the decision to draft Fyre and Dawn to RAW, with no creative plans in place for the duo. This lack of planning has sparked concern among those within the company. However, insiders believe that RAW will prove to be a better fit for the pair, providing them with a greater opportunity to shine.
In fact, sources close to the matter suggest that Fyre and Dawn could be in line for a title match against Women’s Tag Team Champions Jade Cargill and Bianca Belair at Clash at The Castle: Scotland later this year. This potential showdown could be the turning point in their WWE careers, giving them the chance to prove themselves as top contenders.
Meanwhile, WWE NXT is gearing up for a historic moment, as the brand prepares to crown its inaugural Women’s North American Champion on Sunday, June 9 at the NXT Battleground PLE in Las Vegas. The title will be decided in a thrilling six-woman Ladder Match, with the top 12 performers from a recent Women’s Combine at the Performance Center advancing to qualifying matches. Notable participants include RAW’s Ivy Nile and SmackDown’s Mia Yim, as well as NXT talents like Sol Ruca, Thea Hail, and Fallon Henley.
As the WWE Universe looks to the future, one thing is certain – the stage is set for exciting times ahead. With fresh faces and new opportunities emerging, the company is poised to embark on a new era of growth and excitement. For Alba Fyre and Isla Dawn, this fresh start could be just what they need to propel themselves to superstardom.
