#2 The Women's Division has been reset

Is Baszler in a class of her own?

One of the biggest concerns in recent years for NXT has been the women's division. It always seems like there's a dominant champion, but not a great deal in the way of competition - and with Ember Moon and the IIconics all moving to the main roster, the division could easily be seen as the weakest it's ever been.

However, one thing NXT did perfectly this week, was completely dispel the myth that Baszler has no competition.

While we saw a backstage segment with Baszler and Dakota Kai - seemingly urging us towards a storyline there, whether it be a rivalry or a coalition, we saw vignettes for six women who could well go after Baszler's title.

While SAnitY moved to SmackDown Live in the Superstar Shake-up, the female member of the faction, Nikki Cross, remains in NXT.

The first feature we saw had Cross say she's coming for the title, and you'd have to believe she may be one of the most likely next challengers for the belt.

However, NXT also showcased Aliyah, Kairi Sane, Lacey Evans. Vanessa Borne, and Candice LeRae as potential challengers. It'll be interesting to see where this one goes.

A match for next week was also confirmed as LeRae takes on Bianca Belair.
