Karmen Petrovic defeated Jaida Parker and Kelani Jordan on the February 18 episode of WWE NXT to earn the right to challenge Stephanie Vaquer for the NXT Women's North American Championship. Petrovic got the victory after Ashante Adonis rolled her back in the ring to get a quick roll-up victory on Jordan after Parker was caught showboating to the crowd.

This was the first triple threat match in the career of all three women. Now, Petrovic looks to make history by becoming the NXT North American Champion.

Kelani Jordan and Jaida Parker started rolling after the match, but the action wasn't over for Karmen Petrovic. She was assaulted by Fatal Influence's Jazmyn Nyx, Jacy Jayne, and Fallon Henley throughout a commercial break. They would be confronted by Stephanie Vaquer, Jordynne Grace, and NXT Women's Champion Giulia.

Fallon Henley is the former NXT North American Champion.

The championship match between Petrovic and Vaquer is scheduled for February 25 from Cincinnati, Ohio.
