2) Asuka era
Trending
On any night, it won’t be far-fetched to believe that the match after Nakamura Vs Zayn won’t be able to live up to expectations. But on a night like this in Dallas, Bayley and Asuka did so by giving the audience quite the shock in not the fact that Bayley lost but how she lost.
This was a battle of equals. Bayley ain’t you champion for nothing. She wasn’t that unassuming textbook babyface. She gave Asuka the best competition she’s had in NXT since her arrival and tried to take out both her knees, even countering a kick to a knee lock.
But then the submission mastery of the Japanese star caught up to the Hugster and the champion was then locked in a relentless neck choke until her body gave up. A huge gasp enveloped the arena and then we knew what we knew all along- Asuka is the new champion. How could they have had any other conclusion?
