The participants for the battle royal matchup to decide the number one contender or the challenger for the NXT Women's Champion Tiffany Stratton are given below:

Dana Brooke, Fallon Henley, and Cora Jade were the final three while Hail was still in the matchup, lying at ringside after Lash Legend had sent her crashing into the steel stairs earlier in the match.

Hail was never been eliminated and she re-entered the ring after Henley went over the top ropes. Coming from behind, hail tossed out both Brooke and Jade outside the ring to be the last woman standing in the ring.

Upon the victory, Hanna and Hayley Cavinder - The Cavinder Twins came out alongside other Chase U members to celebrate the win with Hail. On a kayfabe note, it was teased that they might attend the school run by Andre Chase.

Ahead of the latest episode of NXT, Hanna Cavinder did share a photo with her sister, Haley, in the ring at the WWE Performance Center with a tweet implying that everybody's "fav tag team" would show up on NXT June 6 episode.

They did so in a minor role which marked their first WWE TV appearance since signing a contract with WWE in 2021. The Cavinder Twins are renowned names in the US sports circuit as they played college basketball at the University of Miami in Florida.

Coming back to the NXT Women's Championship, Tiffany Stratton won the title at WWE NXT Battleground by defeating Lyra Valkyria in the finals of a tournament. The title was vacated by Indi Hartwell due to her main roster call-up.

After the title win, Stratton declared in a "Tiffybration" segment that a battle royal will determine her first challenger. Hail won that match to be the challenger but WWE is yet to confirm her championship match against Stratton.
