Nikki Cross is currently a RAW-exclusive Superstar, after being moved during the 2020 WWE Draft. She made her main roster debut back in late 2018 when fans had just gotten behind Becky Lynch like never before. She accepted Becky Lynch's open challenge in Manchester, England. Becky Lynch was white-hot at the time, and there was no way WWE was going to let anyone score a big win over her. Nikki Cross lost the match, and it would be a long time before they crossed paths again in singles competition.
In July 2019, Becky Lynch and Nikki Cross wrestled again on an episode of WWE RAW. Lynch had won the RAW and SmackDown Women's titles in the main event of WrestleMania a short while ago and was arguably the biggest Superstar in WWE at the time. She won this match as well, and this was it in terms of one-on-one competition between these two women. Becky Lynch would go on to hold the RAW Women's title for around 10 more months, putting down a string of other female Superstars in the process.

He completed his MBA from the Symbiosis Institute of Telecom Management in 2016 and worked with multiple banking institutions, including Tech Mahindra. While he started writing WWE articles for Sportskeeda in 2019 as a hobby, it eventually became a significant part of his professional journey.
Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.
He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
