Take your pick from NXT really.

While Cole and O’Reilly had the bigger storyline beats, and arrest warrants dished out like delicious sweets, the rare sighting of Der Ring General WALTER in NXT is enough to make me tune into TakeOver… if I wasn’t contractually obliged to for my job.

Seriously though, this could be a MOTY candidate if given the time and I am very bloody excited.

I mean, if you’ve logged onto social media today then chances are your timeline has been flooded with pics of Britt Baker looking like an absolute bastard covered in blood. This could be the match to finally give AEW’s women’s roster a kick up the arse, and everyone took notice. I’ve even seen some out-and-out AEW haters praising this match.

The only other major beat to get everyone talking was the true formation of The Pinnacle. Some people hate the name, but personally I quite like it. It sounds like a gaudy 80s sports car, and considering the wrestlers involved, I think the name sums them up perfectly. 


Winner: AEW. That main event was groundbreaking for American women’s wrestling. If AEW can keep on with Thunder Rosa and Britt Baker’s momentum, AND make the Women’s Title picture feel important again, then there could be hope for the division yet.
