Charlotte Flair's first match in NXT since winning the NXT Women's Championship is set.
After Mia Yim defeated Jessi Kamea on NXT, Flair made a surprise appearance and confronted Yim. Flair had been trying to get a match against Yim and Yim finally accepted the challenge and the two will face off against each other on the April 29 episode of NXT.

Flair won the title at WrestleMania 36 when she defeated Rhea Ripley. Although Flair's immediate focus is on Yim, she will have to eventually contend with Io Shirai, the No. 1 Contender to Flair's title. Shirai won a ladder match weeks ago to become the next woman in line for the title.
In other news, NXT announced that North American Champion Keith Lee will defend his title against Damian Priest.
