#7. AJ Lee vs Kaitlyn (WWE Divas Championship) - Money in the Bank, 2013

Kaitlyn and AJ Lee’s rivalry was truly one of the iconic feuds of all time and the two ladies did their absolute best to shine on the big stage, prior to the WWE Women’s Revolution. Kaitlyn came into this match as the challenger and with AJ Lee having the back-up of Big E, the former did have an uphill task ahead of her.

However, Kaitlyn did start this match in a very strong manner, throwing the champion on the outside, but, a clever AJ Lee outsmarted her opponent by and took advantage of an already injured elbow of Kaitlyn.

The challenger eventually picked up the pace of the match, using her immense strength to her advantage and connected with a Spear late on in the match.

But, Kaitlyn’s injured elbow once again came into play as she failed to get the pinfall win, allowing Lee to lock in the Black Widow submission for the win.
