Thea Hail And Tiffany Stratton Set For NXT Women's Title Submission Match At GAB

Another title match has been added to "WWE NXT's" The Great American Bash on July 30.

It was announced on Tuesday night's episode of "NXT" that "NXT" Women's Champion Tiffany Stratton will face Chase U's Thea Hail in a submission match at the event in Cedar Park, Texas. The match will be a rematch from last June's "NXT: Gold Rush" special where Stratton was successful in her defense against Hail, despite visually submitting to Hail's Kimura lock behind the referee's back, as the referee was dealing with Drew Gulak's brawl with Duke Hudson of Chase U.

Stratton has been "NXT" Women's Champion since May when she won the title, which was vacated following Indi Hartwell's injury at "NXT" Stand & Deliver. Stratton won an eight-woman tournament, culminating in a match against Lyra Valkirya at the Battleground event.

Also set for The Great American Bash, Carmelo Hayes defends the "NXT" Championship against Ilja Dragunov. Plus, Roxanne Perez will take on former AEW and Stardom star Blair Davenport.

Less certain is a possible "NXT" North American Title match. WWE announced Wes Lee would defend against Mustafa Ali. However, Lee lost the title to Dominik Mysterio on Tuesday night's "NXT."
