Charlotte vs. Bayley vs. Sasha Banks vs. Becky Lynch for the NXT Women’s Championship

All three challengers ended up taking out Charlotte at the beginning of the match, including when Lynch threw her into the video board on the hard camera side of the ring, breaking the board.

Lynch and Banks then went to work on taking out Bayley, but that alliance fell apart just as they were about to be successful.

Lynch appeared to step aside for Banks, but then caught her from behind with a pumphandle suplex.

Lynch went to work on Bayley, but it wasn’t long before Banks stepped back in the picture, and she was soon followed by Charlotte.

The rest of the maatch was complete chaos, with all four competitors taking turns controlling one another, with Bayley shining the brightest.

Bayley hit a Belly-to-Bayley on Charlotte, but Lynch pulled her off the cover. Bayley and Lynch brawled on the outside, until Banks came out of nowhere with a dive onto both of them, then, as all three of them recovered, they were greeted by a dive from Charlotte.

Chalotte got up first, and she threw Lynch in the ring, but Lynch countered and set her up on the top rope. Banks then tried to get in on the action, but Bayley dispatched of her, then she got rid of Lynch. Bayley then hit a huge Belly-to-Bayley from the middle rope on Charlotte, but as she went for the cover, it was again broken up, this time by Banks.

Banks went for a second cover, but Charlotte kicked out. Banks then locked in a crossface. Banks had to let go of the hold to keep Lynch and Bayley at bay, but then she locked it in again. Charlotte got close to the ropes, but she was worn out, and Banks utilized a crucifix pin for the win.

Banks defeats Charlotte, Bayley and Lynch via pinfall.

4.5 out of 5 stars – Show-stealing performance. Simple as that.
