The first large-scale Women's Tournament in WWE
The first large-scale Women's Tournament in WWE

The Mae Young Classic was WWE’s first-ever large-scale women’s wrestling tournament and featured wrestlers from around the world, much like the Cruiserweight Classic from 2016. The tournament featured 32 competitors, but the finals would come down to Shayna Baszler and Kairi Sane.

Baszler had the strength advantage and worked over Sane’s elbow, but Sane used her speed to take back control and focused her attacks on Baszler’s midsection.

A female WWE star said her life is in danger. Details HERE

The highlights of the match were Sane countering Baszler’s submission with pinfall attempts, Baszler hitting two gutwrenching powerbombs, Baszler countering an elbow from the top rope with the Kirifuda Clutch, and Sane hitting the Insane Elbow to win the match and the tournament.
