VIDEO: NXT WarGames Team Gains New Member

The team grows. We are about two weeks away from Takeover: WarGames and that means it is time to start building up some teams. With two WarGames matches taking place on the same show, there are several spots that need to be filled. The men’s teams were set up when the match was put together in the first place, but the women have some spots left. One more of those has been taken.

The NXT women’s division has grown quite a bit in recent months and that is always a good thing. The division has been getting some more depth and as a result they can put together some new combinations to build towards the future. That is the case with WarGames as Candice LeRae and Shotzi Blackheart are captaining the WarGames teams. They need some people backing them up though and Blackheart’s team is growing.

Ask and receive. Check out how the team got bigger:

WWE has released a video showing Ember Moon being offered and accepting a spot on Blackheart’s team. This comes after LeRae used outside interference to defeat Moon on this week’s NXT. Moon becomes the second member of Blackheart’s team, leaving two spots left. LeRae’s team is complete, with Dakota Kai, Rhea Ripley and Toni Storm having joined her.

Opinion: This is one of those names that isn’t quite a surprise so they went with what made sense here. At the end of the day, Moon is being pushed as a big deal in NXT so having her on the team in such a high profile spot is the logical move. Hopefully she can do something big in the match as the Eclipse is something that can be quite the game changer in something like this.

What do you think of Moon being added? Who else will fill out the team? Let us know in the comments below.
