With more sweat and (minimum) blood (thanks God), NXT ended the epic week of women's main event matches in WWE. NXT Women's Champion Asuka retained her title against Nikki Cross. It was amazing and really competitive battle, that on my opinion is equal to SDL's Money In the Bank match, as both matches got their spicy differences.
Before I continue, I want to spare few seconds by sharing with you my excitement about the fact that Danielle Kamela and Bianca Blair, have new ring names. The renamed Bianca Belair defeated Aliyah in a Mae Young Qualification dark match, while Kamela as Vanessa Borne faced Jayme Hachey, better known as Jayme Jamison in SHINE as their former Tag Team Champion, next to Marti Belle, in another non-televised match. All of this in the night when the Last Woman Standing match was taped - June 23.
This two raised the bar. At the first draft of this article, the one we lose, because of PC problems, I had written that this match is equal to WWE SmackDown Live Women's Money in the Bank! But as much as I think about it I become more and more concrete that this is my match of the week!!! NXT steal another one!
Use of trash bin as a weapon. Throws and powerbombs over piles of steel chairs. The cherry pie - something that the Blue brand women didn't dare to do - Superplex from the top of the ladder straight into the commentators table. At the end one count less, saved Asuka's reign from ending. Nikki Cross is the greatest surprise these weeks. At the beginning it looks like, she will stuck in the PCenter or with SAnitY. But here she is - The Best In the Galaxy / or more appropriate The Craziest In the Galaxy, pushing Asuka to her limits. At one point the Glasgow native will be NXT or some of the main brands Women's Champion. We've dreamed for this one-on-one, since the Fatal-4-Way Title match, several months ago. It was more than great.
Ember Moon - it's your turn!
This is what you get when you have a really experienced, talented and open to everything competitors. A star quality of work. Asuka and Nikki Cross worked more than amazingly great. These two ladies, raised the bar so high, for many other after them to come. This match may be an example of pure dedication and sacrifices. It was meant to happen once (eventually).
These matches are risky. We know that we may not see too much of this hardcore events. They are hard for every Superstars, so we must be grateful, that these women did this and that they survive it.
This week will stay in the history as the week when WWE female Superstars Main Evented RAW, SDL and NXT in a very competitive and high quality matches. Now, the biggest goal is the women's division to Main event, one of the biggest PPVs - WrestleMania or SummerSlam!
All they need is a really heated rivalry! Maybe they should start to think about it from now on.
