Former WWE Superstar praises Sasha Banks, Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch for inaugural RAW Women's Championship match
Former WWE Superstar Tyson Kidd commended Sasha Banks, Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch for their triple threat match at WrestleMania 32.
In 2016, Banks, Flair and Lynch were scheduled to face each other for the now-retired Divas Championship at The Grandest Stage of Them All. During the pre-show, Hall of Famer Lita unveiled the new RAW Women's Championship and the evolution that was to come in the women's division.
Charlotte Flair was the inaugural RAW Women's Champion, making Lynch tap out to the Figure Eight while The Boss was restricted from entering the ring by Hall of Famer Ric Flair.
During his interaction with DropKick Podcast, Tyson Kidd revealed how impressed he was with their creativity.
"Yeah, so I was watching from home (..) that was less than a year after my neck injury," Kidd said. "So, I took about two years to recover from that. I remember being really impressed with that match. (..) I knew the creativity those women would have, but it was cool to see them even outdo what I kind of thought they were gonna do and see it kind of, come to life."
He also added his awe in watching their rise from NXT to WrestleMania.
"Like I had been around them at that point. I was around them a bunch during their NXT, like their come up and that's when I was doing my NXT stuff. So, it was so cool to see I guess the transition and the progression and the growth of from NXT to Wrestlemania in Dallas." (2:22 - 3:02)
