The NXT Women's Championship will be on the line on the March 17 episode of NXT, as champion Jacy Jayne will defend her title in a Triple Threat match against Zaria and Sol Ruca. The match was set up after recent tensions and betrayals between the three competitors.

Why it matters

The NXT Women's Title is one of the top prizes in WWE's developmental brand, and this high-stakes Triple Threat match features three of the brand's rising stars vying for the championship. The ongoing rivalry and animosity between the three women adds extra drama and intrigue to the title bout.

The details

At the recent Vengeance Day event, a segment took place in the ring to set up this title match. Zaria was wearing a 'Sol's Ex' shirt after turning on her former tag team partner Ruca, costing her a previous title match against Jayne. After Ruca joined them in the ring, Robert Stone booked the Triple Threat match for the March 17 NXT episode. The segment then broke down into a brawl, with Fatal Influence (Jayne and Lainey Reid) going after Ruca before Zaria pulled them off. Ruca attempted to hit a finisher on both Zaria and Jayne, but was taken out by a running knee from Reid.
