Andy’s Ecstatic: NXT Takeover Brooklyn

Sasha Banks vs. Bayley

NXT Women’s Championship

If it wasn’t for the fact that the NXT Championship match is a ladder match, I’d say this one should go on last. The Brooklyn crowd is going to absolutely lose its mind for Sasha, and it’s going to go even crazier for Bayley. When Bayley FINALLY gets her hands on the title… it’s going to be a great moment, and I’m going to be really happy I was there to see it live.

This match should have closed the show. Period.

The match itself, while a step below Sasha-Becky in terms of in-ring action, was absolutely top-level when it came to telling a story in the ring. This is as good as I’ve ever seen two women wrestle in the age of “divas,” and it was absolutely mindblowing to witness it live. Plus…

This was a really special moment. When they make a Divas Revolution documentary/DVD in a couple of years, this match and segment will be included. These four women, along with the former Sara Del Rey, have 100% changed the game for women in wrestling.

The 4 Horsewomen title couldn’t be anymore appropriate. Neither could Becky visibly saying “oh my god…oh my fucking god” while they stood together in the center of the ring, before 13,000+ grateful fans.

Next, it’s time for a bunch of so-called Divas to step up their game, or step aside.
