Nikkita Lyons returned to NXT on February 21, but Tiffany Stratton didn't let her say her peace.
Lyons returned to NXT for the first time since her ACL surgery on Tuesday, February 21. During her scheduled interview with McKenzie Mitchell, Lyons revealed that the doctor said she'd be sidelined for roughly a year; she was hoping for 11-12 months. Then, Tiffany Stratton interrupted Lyons to complain about her taking up TV time.
When Nikita questioned her, Tiffany mocked how long Lyons would be out of action. She said that if she had done anything to her, Nikkita would be out of action permanently instead of "just for one year." Stratton further irked Nikkita about how long she would be gone as she suggested she disappear for one year.
