Alba Fyre And Isla Dawn Say They Didn't Know They Would Be Drafted On WWE SmackDown

Alba Fyre and Isla Dawn are headed to WWE SmackDown as the NXT Women's Tag Team Champions were drafted by the blue brand during night one of the WWE Draft.

Fyre & Dawn started teaming together in February and quickly won the NXT Women's Tag Team Titles, defeating Fallon Henley & Kiana James at NXT Stand & Deliver.

Speaking on Busted Open Radio, Fyre & Dawn gave their reaction to being drafted.

"I've been saying it for days, I still don't feel like it's quite settled in yet. We had no idea. No idea we were going to be drafted. It means so much. We both worked really hard for this and for a long time. Getting things like this, you know you're being appreciated," said Fyre.

Dawn added, "The timing with teaming a month ago, that was our second TV match, we've only been together a short time."

Before Dawn & Fyre head to WWE SmackDown, they will defend the NXT Women's Tag Team Titles against Katana Chance & Kayden Carter on Tuesday's NXT.
