Five of the best women’s NXT TakeOver matches

3. Team Ripely vs. Team Baszler – TakeOver: War Games III

This match was great. The women of NXT gave us a match for the ages in the first-ever women’s WarGames match.

Shayna Baszler and Rhea Ripley were named team captains and they chose their teams. Bianca Belair, Io Shirai, and Kay Lee Ray were chosen for Team Baszler and Tegan Nox, Candice LaRae, and Mia Yim for Team Ripley.

Mia Yim was taken out by an unknown assailant and therefore unable to take part in the match later in the night. Dakota Kai who was coincidently close to the scene was named as her replacement.

The teams were picked, the match was set and history was to be made.

The match was beautiful chaos, awash with weapons and insane spots were in abundance. In the middle of the match, Kai turned heel on Nox with a brutal beat down that took both out of the match giving Team Baszler the numbers advantage.

The action continued in the cage with all performers playing their parts perfectly and in spectacular fashion. The craziness reached its crescendo when a sequence of action that saw Io execute a moonsault off the top of the cage. Rhea would handcuff Shayna and then plant her with the Riptide for the hardfought victory.

A fantastic and history-making match.
