Chelsea Green is back on NXT to make headlines starting from the Spring Breakin' 2024 Night Two edition and she is already heading toward a title match opportunity set for next week.

After being selected by the SmackDown brand during WWE Draft 2024 with her current tag team partner Piper Niven, Green made a surprise return to NXT TV on this Tuesday's episode to reunite with her former manager Mr. Robert Stone.

Green also proceeded to challenge Roxanne Perez for the NXT Women's title on next week's episode. Later on the show, NXT General Manager Ava informed Perez about her next title defense and the latter wasn't happy about it.

Then in an exclusive interview released on WWE's X account, the former WWE Women's Tag Team Champion expressed her thrill about this title match, claiming that winning the NXT Women's title would be the sole reason behind her return.

"The Chelsea Green, future Hall of Famer, two-time WWE Women's tag team champion can't make a cameo ... I mean it would be unfair not to ... and since I am here making said cameo, I think I am going to go ahead and take Roxy's championship"

Perez won the Women's Title at NXT Stand & Deliver at the WrestleMania XL weekend from Lyra Valkyria who has now been drafted to Raw. Perez already defended the belt against Lyra and Tatum Paxley in a Triple Threat.

Apart from this title match, a combine will be there on NXT to decide which 12 competitors will participate in qualifying matches for the ladder match to crown the inaugural NXT Women's North American Champion.

New NXT Champion Trick Williams will appear on Supernova Session with Meta-Four while the newest returnee Wes Lee will take on Josh Briggs in a singles competition. At a glance, the confirmed match card for the May 7 episode goes as follows:

• NXT Women's Champion Roxanne Perez defends against Chelsea Green
• Wes Lee vs. Josh Briggs
• Meta-Four hosts Supernova Sessions with NXT Champion Trick Williams
• Combine to decide qualifying matches for the NXT Women's North American Championship ladder match
