But why? What reason should she retain? I could see if they were using the NXT Women's title to help her get over more on Raw or something. They aren't even letting her carry the damn thing around anymore. It's like, she joined the main roster and suddenly the NXT Women's title doesn't mean sh*t and isn't "worth" enough to even appear on Raw. However, I'm sure that isn't Sasha's call or decision. Fact is, with Charlotte, Becky and Sasha all getting called up, there is no other option other than Bayley right now. I know you guys don't like the story and feel it was rushed but they had to rush it because the other girls will be gone. I like Sasha Banks too. Both are great. Sasha is moving on and it doesn't make sense for her to retain here. Again, if they were giving Sasha a huge singles push on Raw and billing her as the "current NXT Women's champ" and came out with the belt and promoted it as being equal or better than the Divas title then I'd totally see your point. However, they aren't. Sasha should not retain here. Period. I agree that they aren't using the title on Raw correctly, but that's besides the point. Sasha Banks is still pulling double duty on Raw and NXT. She could continue that, with the NXT Women's Title getting shine on NXT, just like it would if Bayley won it. There's a reason the Sami Zayn storyline worked so well. He got so close, so often. The same could be done with Bayley. As I said, I fully expect Bayley to win tonight. She went over Charlotte and Becky within two weeks and I sense she'll complete the main roster sweep tonight. In the unlikely event that Sasha Banks retains, I think it would be the better decision. I think they are just having Owens, Charlotte, Becky and Sasha still pull double duty for the time being so they could sell out Barclay's Center. They needed those top names to sell it out. I think after tonight's taping they will all be gone. I don't want to see the same story repeated. I loved the story they did with Sami Zayn. I'm with you 100%. However, I don't feel it should be repeated the same way just because it worked once. Sasha should have that NXT Women's title on Raw every week and should be shoving it in Nikki Bella's face while claiming to be the REAL women's champion in WWE. It would not only build up Sasha but the NXT Women's title itself. Again, not Sasha's fault But if they have no plans of doing anything with her being NXT Women's Champion on Raw then she should just drop it. If you guys can give me one reason why Sasha should retain other than "we like her and the story was rushed" then I will be all ears. All that being said, Bayley will probably lose tonight and I'll lose my sh*t.

Again, I'm with you 100% on what Sasha should be doing with the NXT Women's Title. The fact that she barely shows up with it is another reason why I see her losing. Bayley's story would be different than Zayn's. Zayn had an entire year of chasing and coming up short. Bayley's wouldn't be that long but should have more than she currently does. Also, she has the added backstory of the character arc that she has had since her debut. Regardless, we are going to see differently about this.

Bayley's story feels exactly like Zayn's (which IMO is a good thing). They both had the long build then the title shot came rather quickly when they had to overcome the three guys/girls that had stood in their way longest (Kidd, Titus, Breeze for Zayn, Emma, Charlotte, and Becky for Bayley) and now it's time. It's practically a carbon copy of the story they told with Sami.
Off the Bayley topic, but this is the biggest NXT show of all time right? If it's a great show then it's going to do wonders. I feel like there's gonna be some fairly sizable pressure on Bayley and Sasha doing the semi main in a match that I figure we're all so excited to see. This feels like a bigger part of the "Diva's Revolution" than the Summerslam match because this proves that with proper build we will happily pay to see a women's match.

Bayley deserves it and should have a chance at winning even if Sasha was staying in NXT. Bayley is super popular, has a connection with fans and is great in the ring which a lot of people still refuse to believe. I still think she outperformed Charlotte in both of their singles matches. When a female wrestler with an Anime gimmick who gives hugs somehow manages to become MY favorite wrestler...then she is something very very special. I get you guys don't have the same connection and that's totally cool. Not everybody is going to "get it". I just feel like you're underselling Bayley just because you happen to prefer others. I have very little use for John Cena but I can sure as hell understand his popularity and why he will always have a main event place on the card. I'm not comparing Bayley to Cena here but just trying to illustrate that Bayley is better and more popular than a lot of people are giving her credit for... Yup. F*ck you. Friendship is over.

Deleting our YouTube account now... Bayley does deserve a run with the Women's Title. I'm not saying that she doesn't. I just think that Sasha should hold the title for longer especially if she didn't get called up. Bayley is my third favorite girl in NXT and I believe that she is damn good in the ring. When I say that I think she's the worst of the "Four Horsewoman", it's not a slight on her. I just think Sasha, Becky and Charlotte are better in the ring. You feel differently and that's fine.

Also, clearly they chose to do Bayley vs. Sasha now for their biggest show ever because they knew it would draw and it's THE match everybody wants to see.
Trust me, if they felt Sasha vs. Charlotte or Sasha vs. Becky would've been a bigger draw to sell out Barclay's then they would've done it.

I think Sasha/Becky II would have been the biggest draw considering the success and high praise of their first encounter.

Sasha vs. Becky was tremendous but it didn't have the same "big match" feel as Sasha vs. Bayley and either would the rematch. Trust me, we are getting Kevin Owens tonight because he is a draw for NXT. Especially considering his exposure on the main roster. Bayley vs. Sasha is happening because it's the biggest draw they could have for the Women's division.

But I'm 99% sure Finn retains since he's not on the main roster. If you do Sasha/Becky now, both girls are on the main roster and, if they are putting the title on someone who is still in NXT, Bayley is the answer. I absolutely believe that a Sasha/Becky rematch would have just as big, if not a bigger match feel.

Watched a little bit of NXT this morning and I wasn't really impressed with the Bayley thing. But she's definitely going to pick up the win tonight.

Completely disagree about Becky/Sasha II being even close to as big of a draw as Sasha/Bayley. Again, underselling. Sasha/Becky was excellent. However, Bayley/Sasha has a HUGE match feel and is being promoted as a co-main event match for a reason. Hence why we're are going back and forth for 2 pages now about this match. It's because we are both invested. This wouldn't be happening if it was just Sasha/Becky II.

You and I wouldn't be going back and forth for 2 pages if it was Sasha/Becky, but me and Planktung would be. It's all about who you personally prefer. I think that more people would have rather seen Sasha and Becky put on another classic. You don't and you are a massive Bayley fan.

Yea, I'm down for Bayley vs Sasha. What if Sasha retains? I think that would be a pretty surprising twist, but IDK where they would go with it.

Sasha to retain, I hope. I'm kinda looking forward to seeing this, I often play down NXT's greatness but when I actually watch it (seems to only be the TakeOver's) I enjoy the crap out of them. I wonder if this will have a small scale set-up or will be full blown? Owens vs. Balor is going to be a great Main Event too.
