4. I hope they can, but can the NXT women ever top this rivalry?
There have been some tremendous matches since the rebirth of NXT, and a good share of them have included the women. But, I do have to ask: Can the Bayley-Sasha Banks rivalry ever be topped in NXT?
Let’s look at the feud itself: Their two matches at back-to-back TakeOver events have been two of the best matches in women’s wrestling history. It’s the standard “good vs. bad” booking, but these two characters fit so perfectly. The fan-favorite underdog against the big, bad, cocky favorite. The story tells itself, folks.
In two matches, these two have been given 49 minutes to tear the house down, including a historic main event slot for 30 minutes. Will we ever see something like that again? Yeah, maybe someday down the line. But, will it mean the same as what these two women have done? Honestly, I highly doubt it.
Next: 5. Thank you, Sasha!
