It may have been a one-time deal for Bayley, but she left her mark on the WWE Universe. When Bayley's music hit, the Verizon Center exploded with what was likely the biggest pop of the evening. Bayley is such a loved talent, I can't see why she wasn't picked up in the draft. Nonetheless, she made a huge impact and once she does get her official call-up, the fans will be ready.

The only two problems I saw with this bout, was the fact that the champion was made to look incredibly weak. Also, the time. It's a tag match, regardless if it's men or women, a tag team contest needs more than seven minutes to effectively tell a story.

Even with the limited working time, the match was still pretty good. In the end, it was Banks who shined the brightest. Don't be surprised if The Boss is on-deck for the next women's title reign.
