7. NXT Women’s Title Match: NXT Live No. 155, July 15, 2015
On a scale of things, this was a very good match, but not great by Banks and Charlotte’s standards. On this night at Full Sail University, the two went back to war 5 months after Sasha had won the belt at NXT Takeover: Rival in fatal 4-way match. For just under 14 minutes the two traded technique and skill, engaging in more a chess match than a pro wrestling bout.

Although this ranks at No. 7 in terms of in-ring action, the importance of what went down that night in July was paramount. In losing the belt to Banks in February in a gimmick match, and on this night losing in a one on one bout due to a clean tap out, Charlotte officially passed the NXT torch to her conqueror.
Both competitors furthered their legacy in this match, as Banks looked like a superstar and Charlotte looked more than ready to take the next stop at the main roster. The two also proved that their budding chemistry together was no fluke, and their futures against each other in the ring were only at the beginning.
