#2 Worst: Former NXT UK Women's Champion Toni Storm loses to an enhancement talent

When done well, an enhancement talent defeating an established star can be pretty great. NXT pulled this off recently when Leon Ruff beat Johnny Gargano to become NXT North American Champion.

Will Zayda Ramier go on the same path? It remains to be seen.

She appeared in the ring seemingly to put some heat on Toni Storm, who has lost quite a few matches recently. The former NXT UK Women's Champion looked to send a message to Zoey Stark, who has been elevated a great deal recently.

Storm looked to finish Ramier off with a move from the top rope before Stark came out. She provided the distraction, which allowed the enhancement talent to seize an opening and hit a Shooting Star Press for the shocking victory. Ramier just about pulled the move off, landing safely enough.

While the victory is huge for the relative nobody, this did no favors to Toni Storm. She does not need to continue in NXT.

RAW and SmackDown could definitely use someone like her to bolster their ranks. Speaking of the main roster, the distraction finish was another tired trope used in a women's match on this week's NXT.
