It looks as though Lola Vice could be done with NXT.

The former NXT Women’s Champion bid farewell to the live crowd inside the WWE Performance Center on Tuesday night, shortly after losing a title showdown against Kendal Grey in the main event of this week’s show.

After the show went off air, Vice put her gloves in the middle of the ring. She was greeted by Damian Priest, then got on the mic and had a few words to say.

Vice gave credit to opponent Grey, whom she had been locked in a rivalry with for months. She reflected on her time in NXT, making the transition from MMA to professional wrestling and the challenges that came along the way.

Vice mentioned how happy she was to represent Latino people during her time, then finished her message by saying how she’ll always be NXT.

Vice’s WWE run started in 2022, when she was offered a deal following a tryout during Wrestlemania weekend. She was making the move to wrestling after a brief but successful run as an MMA fighter for Bellator under the name Valerie Loureda.

The former American Top Team talent has become one of the division’s top names over the past year. She captured the NXT Women’s Championship in April, ending Jacy Jayne’s reign of dominance over the division. While being a prominent figure on Tuesday nights, Vice also started to show up on AAA following WWE’s acquisition of the lucha brand.

It’s unclear what’s next for Vice, although it seems likely the former champ is on her way to a main roster show soon.
