Some of you may think that with so many new faces coming into NXT, Shayna Baszler will be a thing of the past soon. But the fact of the matter is that she still is a dominant force in the black and yellow brand, as she proved in this week's main event.
Baszler took on Mia Yim in a contest that was very unlike every other main event we've seen in NXT traditionally. Instead of an aerial high flying contest, this was a ground-based match that made use of psychology to tell a compelling story between two supremely talented competitors.

It was the story of Shayna Baszler's injured fingers vs. Mia Yim's injured leg, culminating in a short but interesting main event match, which wasn't for the title. As one would expect, the Champ came out on top in this encounter.
Is there anyone who can take Shayna Baszler down?
