Asuka (C) vs Nikki Cross vs Billie Kay vs Peyton Royce (for the NXT Women’s Championship)
Asuka decided to take on Cross, Kay and Royce at the same time at TakeOver: San Antonio after having a night to forget last week on NXT where she was beaten up first by Royce and Kay, and then by Nikki Cross who had seemingly come out to save her.
Asuka is yet to be beaten in the WWE and will look to continue her dominant run as NXT Champion well into 2017. This will be the first time Cross, Kay and Royce will challenging for a title in the WWE.
The question going into this match is how will Billie Kay and Peyton Royce work together. Will we see them implode and go at each other in their quest to become NXT Women’s Champion or will they stick together till the bitter end?
As far as Nikki Cross goes, her introduction in NXT has been spot on as a part of SANITY but this will be her first high-profile match in the WWE and she will be looking to deliver.
Going into this match, I’m going with a victory for the ‘Empress of Tomorrow’ even though the odds seem stacked against her.
Prediction: Asuka def. Nikki Cross, Billie Kay and Peyton Royce
