"[I'm] very excited that she's the first champion, and now the question is 'What's next for her?'," Triple H said. "I can tell you what's next for her... On Nov. 18 at the Toyota Center at the next NXT TakeOver, Kairi will be fighting to determine a new NXT women's champion."

The NXT Women's Championship is currently vacant after former champion Asuka vacated the title on the first set of NXT tapings post-TakeOver: Brooklyn 3.

It was revealed on this past week's episode of RAW that Asuka will soon be competing for WWE's Red Brand

Sane defeated Tessa Blanchard, Bianca Bel🥀air, Dakota Kai and Toni Storm to reach the finals of the tournament. Sane may be new to WWE, but she is no stranger to winning championships. Before winning the Mae Young Classic, Sane was one of the top stars of the all-female Japanese promotion Stardom where she won numerous championships.
