Lola Vice To Make WWE NXT TV Debut

WWE NXT prospect Lola Vice has taped her first televised WWE match. 

Vice (Valerie Loureda) announced via Twitter that she will be appearing on the January 27 episode of NXT Level Up. She tweeted a picture of her making her entrance at last night's taping, accompanied by the caption 'I did it. Lola Vice'. 

According to the show's spoilers, she will clash with Dani Palmer. 

This is not Lola's first-ever match, however, as she has been performing on the NXT live event circuit in recent months. She made her non-televised debut on the November 12, 2022 NXT house show and most recently competed on January 20 in Fort Pierce, Florida (where she lost to Kayden Carter). 

Valerie Loureda is a former MMA fighter who competed for Bellator, amassing a record of 4 wins and 1 loss, before signing a multi-year contract with WWE in June. She has been training at the Performance Centre since July. 

Shawn Michaels stated during a media call to promote October's NXT Halloween Havoc that Vice was 'coming along great' and would appear in 2023 'for sure'.
