WWE NXT Preview: Crucial Ladder match for advantage at WarGames, Finn Balor's next prey amidst invasion, and more

#4 Bayley leads the invasion on NXT

For the past couple of weeks, we have seen the NXT roster invade RAW and SmackDown. During that, we saw Shayna Baszler attack Bayley two weeks in a row as well as confront Becky Lynch on Monday Night RAW.

However, both Baszler and Lynch refused to recognize Bayley as a threat and that irked the SmackDown Women’s Champion. On Monday, we saw her attack Becky Lynch and this week, we could see her lead SmackDown’s invasion of the Black and Gold brand.

It will be interesting to see the former NXT Women’s Champion take command and respond to the vicious attacks laid on her in the past. She is expected to be accompanied by Sasha Banks and fellow SmackDown Superstars who will look to settle their score with the NXT locker room.

Bayley might attack Baszler right after the Ladder match which will prompt the latter’s teammates to come to her rescue. This will be a perfect opportunity for a brawl that may see the female Superstars of the Blue brand making a statement tonight.
