Piper Niven Debuts on Raw Alongside Eva Marie

Piper Niven, who previously was part of the NXT UK roster, made her WWE Raw debut tonight alongside Eva Marie.

Eva Marie was scheduled to face Naomi, but instead, Piper Niven got in the ring and destroyed Naomi in a squash match. Afterwards, Eva grabbed the ring announcer’s microphone and announced, “The winner of this match is Eva Marie!” An excited Piper celebrated and hugged Eva, who looked a bit reluctant about being hugged.

Bafflingly, the Raw announcers pretended like they had no idea who Piper Niven was, despite her being part of the NXT UK roster since March 2019 and wrestling in the Mae Young Classic in 2017. Her name wasn’t announced and she was treated like a mystery person.
