Booker T comments on a big title change at NXT Vengeance Day.
The premium live event only featured one title change, as Stephanie Vaquer defeated Fallon Henley for the NXT Women's North American Championship in the opening bout of the show.
Many fans expect Vaquer to break records with her reign, as she's only the third woman to hold the belt since it was introduced in 2024.
On the latest edition of his Hall Of Fame podcast, Booker T commented on the title change, saying that Vaquer deserves the belt.
“I think she deserves it. I mean, she really does. She’s a workhorse. She’s goes out and has really good matches as well as, you know, she’s been champion around the world, this is just another mark for her that she’s trying to put on her belt so she could get to that next level as well. We’ve talked about how strong the female roster is. Stephanie Vaquer, Zaria, girls like that, they definitely make that division so much stronger and when you got somebody like Roxanne Perez that has put so much work in, let somebody else get a little piece of the pie, let somebody else shine. That’s what it’s all about, man.”
