10 Wrestling Facts We Didn't Know Last Week (June 22)
8. Ember Moon Thought She Was In Trouble Before Being Called Up
There may be trouble ahead.
Those were the words flooding Ember Moon's brain when she was pulled into a hasty meeting by Triple H, Sara Amato and Matt Bloom shortly after losing the NXT Women's Title to Shayna Baszler at TakeOver: New Orleans. Moon, coming off the high of her match, told the Miami Herald she thought she'd done something wrong.
She actually blurted that out loud to the trio before they reassured her that they were delighted with everything she'd achieved on NXT. In fact, they wanted to promote her to the main roster. That's when WWE cameramen appeared out of nowhere to capture the moment.
Poor Ember thought she was about to be reminded why Baszler had been chosen as the next champion, and she couldn't believe that Triple H, Amato and Bloom pulled a fast one on her by hiding cameras out of plain sight until they spread the news.
