Storm was asked about her mindset going into Saturday's match.

"Bianca Belair can go and get in line with the rest of them because I picked up the NXT Women's Championship, and I held it up, and it looked good. All that is, is a little preview to what's gonna happen at Worlds Collide, and I can't wait to step in the ring with Rhea Ripley and make some magic," Storm said.
