NXT- 5 points to note (October 18, 2017)

#2 Another contender for the NXT Women's Championship

Ember Moon joined the merry crew, this week

NXT started off with what was a pretty interesting match, as Sonya Deville, Ruby Riot and Ember Moon faced off in a qualifier for the NXT Women's Championship. Ember Moon picked up the big win and will now join Kairi Sane and Peyton Royce at NXT Takeover: WarGames.

Alberto Del Rio returning to WWE?

The women told a great story throughout the match, with regard to Ruby Riot's leg that she injured after Riot performed a high-risk move. That became the focus of the match, and even played a factor in determining the outcome of the said contest. Storytelling is alive in the yellow brand.

We wonder if Ember Moon will become NXT Women's Champion in Houston, Texas on Survivor Series weekend. Is it her destiny?
