Gigi Dolin Speaks
Gigi Dolin did a promo segment on this show about returning last week and attacking Jacy Jayne, who turned on her a few weeks ago during a segment with Bayley after they lost a triple threat match at Vengeance Day while wrestling NXT Women’s Champion Roxanne Perez.
Dolin stood at the entrance way with a flower in her hand. Gigi said that three weeks ago, her life changed when Jayne turned on her. She said that isn’t the first time she’s had someone turned on her who she thought was family. Gigi said that Jayne made her realize who she really is. She said that Jayne and Toxic Attraction was all about material things. She said that her mother is just like Jayne who put her down. She said that she escaped her mother and now has escaped Jayne. She said next week at Roadblock, she will take all of her anger and put the final nail in the coffin of Toxic Attraction.
