Becky Lynch vs. Tiffany Stratton for the NXT Women’s Championship, from the September 12, 2023 episode of WWE NXT

The last thing I expected here was the straightforward wrestling match we got; the easy money would have suggested shenanigans to set up a feud for either competitor going forward. That we got a competitive match shows a lot of faith in Tiffany Stratton, who still has room to improve but is already working like a five-year vet when she only started her training two years ago. I also like that they didn’t burn through each other’s finishers to feign the optics of a big-time match without the earned emotion behind such a measure. Everything was fun and made sense.
