WWE put on a live event in Birmingham, England, on April 17th, featuring title defenses by Cody Rhodes and Damian Priest. Among the highlights was the end of a lengthy losing streak for RAW’s Tegan Nox, who secured her first victory in over a year alongside Natalya.
Tegan Nox, a somewhat sidelined figure since her 2022 return, has struggled to gain momentum, often appearing in lower-profile matches. However, she broke her losing streak in a tag team match against Zoey Stark and Shayna Baszler.
The event showcased other notable matchups, including Rhodes triumphing over Shinsuke Nakamura and Priest defending his title against Kofi Kingston.
Additionally, Sami Zayn defended the Intercontinental Championship in a Fatal Four-Way contest against Gunther, Finn Balor, and Chad Gable.
Becky Lynch made a surprise return to action after a hiatus following her loss to Rhea Ripley at WrestleMania 40. Initially expected to take time off, Lynch’s comeback was prompted by an injury to Mami, leading to speculation about her involvement in the upcoming Women’s World Championship match on RAW.
The Birmingham event marked an exciting start to WWE’s England tour, with thrilling matches and unexpected developments setting the stage for upcoming storylines on both RAW and SmackDown.
