After what transpired in the main event of NXT this week, Becky Lynch has etched her name in the history books. After weeks of tug-of-war between her and Tiffany Stratton, both women finally collided for the NXT Women’s Title last night. It has to be one of the most incredible female matches NXT has witnessed in quite a while. Professional as ever, neither of the women showed recklessness. Instead, they were a treat to watch.
Nevertheless, Tiffany was about to retain the gold when he went for her patented Moonsault on The Man. However, Lynch got out of harm’s way and planted Stratton with the Manhandle Slam. After that, Tiffy’s time was over, as she succumbed to a much more experienced competitor in Becky. As soon as the referee counted to 3, the revamped Performance Center came unglued.
With that triumph on NXT, Becky Lynch has now become a Grand Slam Champion in WWE. The NXT Women’s Title was the only strap that had eluded the Irishwoman in her decorated WWE career. She now has undisputed control over NXT’s women’s division. As for Tiffany Stratton, there’s nothing for which she should look down on herself. She’s been an amazing talent and a superstar in the making.
Quite possibly, they’d run it back for the NXT Women’s Title at No Mercy. The card is already shaping up to be a can’t-miss show. There’s little to no chance that Becky drops the title before having a significant run with it. Just imagine the variety of high-caliber matches she could have with the highly talented locker room there in NXT.
