Who Should Be the Next NXT Women's Champion?

#4 Nikki Cross

Might it be time for the division to get a bit crazy?

Finally, there's Nikki Cross, who last qualified by winning a battle royal when General Manager William Regal gave her a second chance after the screwy finish to her original qualifying match.

Pros:

Aside from Ember Moon, Nikki Cross proved to be the most serious threat to Asuka during her reign, as the two fought to a no contest in a triple threat elimination match. Nikki followed up her vicious assault with another that took Asuka to her limit in the brutal, first-ever Last Woman Standing match in June.

Unlike Ember Moon, however, the fact that neither of these incidents came at a TakeOver event means that Nikki's failures can fly under the radar more so than Moon's while her unsuccessful attempts at TakeOver: San Antonio and Chicago were overshadowed by the Asuka/Ember matches.

Nikki is also one of the most over women on the NXT roster and the ongoing feud between SAnity and the Undisputed Era would add a new twist to the story around the NXT Women's Championship.

Honestly, Nikki is slowly becoming my favourite to win this match.

Cons:

Nikki Cross is a better wrestler than her current gimmick portrays her. She's a crazy person, so she fights and brawls like a crazy person. Simple, right?

But this persona might be a detriment to the overall quality of the matches for the championship. Nikki's act would work tremendously in stipulation matches, but the classics along the lines of Sasha/Bayley and Asuka/Ember would probably go by the wayside during her reign.

So, who do you think should win the championship at TakeOver: War Games? Drop a comment below to share your thoughts.
