Rain's path to NXT television

This was not Rain's first time working in front of NXT crowds, but it was the first time that work turned into a televised result. She previously wrestled in a dark match before the April 14 edition of NXT, then appeared again at the April 24 NXT house show.

Rain has been wrestling for four years and has built experience through PROGRESS Wrestling, Hustle, EVE, Sendai Girls', Revolution Pro Wrestling, and DDT.

What Lizzy Rain's win means for NXT

Lizzy Rain getting a win in her first televised NXT match gives the brand an easy reason to bring her back quickly. Moving from a dark match and a house show to a TV victory suggests NXT is already testing how she fits into the weekly roster mix.
