NXT Takeover: Respect - 3 things that worked
Banks made a huge statement this nightThere are only a few things in pro wrestling that are great, and consistent at being great. NXT is one of them. There has been no greater story in the WWE than the rise AND rise of NXT. The way they book their female performers and tag team division coupled with the way they develop most of their characters is amazing, and something that the main roster so need to take notes from.This was a night where things were expected to work given NXT’s reputation. And they did. Bayley had her first title defense and what a glorious one it was.Here are the 3 things that worked -
#1 THE MAIN EVENT
THIS MATCH DESERVES TO BE DESCRIBED IN CAPS BECAUSE IT WAS THAT AWESOME!
Banks vs Bayley was another great bout in the history of the NXT women's Championship. These two did way better than what was expected and the expectations were already sky high after what they did in Brooklyn.This is was dreams are made of. This is what the beauty of professional wrestling stands for.
It was storyline perfection. Just watch the hype videos WWE came out with and rejoice again.
Triple H and Stephanie McMahon with Regal and the entire NXT roster coming out to celebrate, was another nice touch.
