5 mistakes WWE must avoid at Evolution

#3 Bianca Belair not winning the battle royal

NXT should make its presence felt

What? Bianca Belair, you ask?

Well, it's probable that several NXT stars will be a part of this battle royal. A few names from the yellow brand have been announced for the show, but haven't made it on to the card yet. This is where they will likely land.

While Asuka would be the choice of most to win this match, her falling prey to the "standing tall" trope on Tuesday suggests that it won't happen. The timing is off anyway.

SmackDown's end game should be an Asuka showdown with Becky Lynch for WrestleMania. Asuka getting a title shot too early would ruin that. The Empress of Tomorrow should be the dominant superstar in the match to begin the rebuild she needs, but should fall just short of her winning it.

Bianca Belair is actually in the best position. She likes to claim she's undefeated in NXT, and eliminating the NXT women's division's former colossus would be a massive rub for her.

Belair getting a title shot is only a matter of when, not if. The problem has been that Kairi Sane's rematch with Shayna Baszler has taken so much time that its thrown the women's title match for NXT TakeOver: War Games II into confusion.

The build between Sane and Belair deserves more attention and time, so if the plan is for Belair to get her shot at War Games, this would be a way to inject the heat the build needs with so little time. Otherwise, it would be better to just hold off on Belair's title shot until TakeOver: Phoenix in January.
