It was supposed to be a thrilling homecoming for wrestling fans in the UKNixon Newell, known to WWE fans as Tegan Nox, was set to make her big return to the ring with ATTACK! Pro Wrestling next month. But in a last-minute twist, ATTACK! announced that Newell would no longer be competing at the show, leaving fans disappointed and wanting answers.
According to Fightful Selects Corey Brennan, theres more to this story than meets the eye. Sources within the UK wrestling scene revealed that WWE and ATTACK! had been in discussions throughout the entire process, hoping to make Newells appearance a reality. Despite their efforts, things didnt pan out. One source noted that WWE worked well with ATTACK! to try and accommodate the booking, with the promotion even praising WWEs cooperation. Still, there was no happy endingat least not this time.
So, what really kept Tegan Nox from making her big UK return? While some fans might point fingers at a non-compete clause, sources didnt confirm if that was a factor in her removal. The situation, it seems, was a result of a myriad of issues, according to those in the know.
ATTACK! Pro Wrestling is already hustling to find a suitable replacement for Newell, with hopes of bringing her back for future events. And its not just ATTACK!promoters across the UK and Europe are reportedly lining up to book Newell once shes available. It looks like the Girl with the Shiniest Wizard still has plenty of suitors waiting for her grand return.
Despite the setback, one thing is clear: Nixon Newells return to the UK wrestling scene is highly anticipated, and her fans and promoters alike are eager for the day she steps back into the ring.
