#3 NXT still know how to book their women's division better than the main roster

Tonight's NXT episode had three major women's division angles pushed forward. And they're all interesting.

First, Bianca Belair defeated Xia LI - who has been looking strong on recent NXT episodes - while the announce team played up Belair's recent losing streak that's gotten her out of title contention.

That was followed by a backstage segment with Mia Yim attacking Jessamyn Duke, one of Shayna Baszler's buddies, possibly taking her out before her Takeover: Toronto match with the champ next month.

Finally, we had Io Shirai taking on American Ninja Warrior icon, Kacy Catanzaro. Io has been pushing her new "bad attitude" since attacking Candice LaRae and destroying the Performance Center hopeful before LaRae ran in to attack the Genius of the Sky.

Also, Io got some pretty dope new theme music.

The women on the main roster are extremely talented and have been involved in some pretty decent angles recently, but the NXT women have just been telling way more interesting stories.
