Io Shirai is back.
Candice LeRae was not happy that Poppy was getting all the attention the past week as she was brought back to NXT. LeRae called out Poppy on Tuesday's NXT, not only for taking her spotlight, but also making Indi Hartwell cry by hugging Dexter Lumis.
Poppy was not ready to step to Candice, but she re-introduced Io Shirai, who was more than happy to settle Poppy's score.
Shirai lost the NXT Women's Championship to Raquel Gonzalez at NXT TakeOver: Stand & Deliver. She appeared on the April 20 episode of NXT where she was confronted by Franky Monet, but hasn't been on television since.
