I was kinda expecting the opposite, for Priest to cash-in successfully and IYO to be thwarted due to squabbling with a teammate. As soon as the Seth-Finn segment ended with no cash-in though the chances of IYO winning the title went up about 90%.

I was so happy to see her win instead of going with the same statue quo in Charlotte or Bianca. Give those two a rest from the title scene and let the new blood rise in IYO and the now returning Kari.

Well deserved. Now it's a matter of how long it'll take before Bayley betrays costing her the title.

I'm happy but the Damage CTRL story is very confusing, lol. They have fluctuated between whether Iyo is a heel or face and then you had the whole Bayley tried to screw her out of MITB that got dropped I am guessing the Kai injury changed matters and Bayley tweaking her knee I still think Bianca is going to turn heel at some point so they might just make all Damage Ctrl as faces Dakota and IYO feel like the easiest to turn Face, what with IYO leaning Face the past few months and Dakota when she comes back from this serious injury. ......Bayley feels like the more tricky one.

Bayley is sort of due for a turn tho I can see them maybe wanting to wait as far as giving her a proper angle for a babyface turn But the whole Ding Dong Hello and calling the babyface idiots would work as a face.

Considering we’ve got someone gunning for revenge on her (and Sky too, for that matter) for f***ing up her hair and breaking her in the head, we should take a raincheck on that babyface turn for a little bit.

I dunno about that, to be honest. The audience couldn't give much of a damn last Friday when Shotzi showed up and chased Bayley around with a pair of clippers. It doesn't help she was running around screaming and laughing either. The crazy girl gimmick just doesn't seem to work all that well in the modern era. It also doesn't help that Shotzi is largely unsympathetic here either, kayfabe wise. Yes she got cheated out of a win. But then she went backstage and intentionally picked a fight and also threw the first punch.

There have been a lot, I mean a lot, of up and downs with Damage CTRL, but I couldn't help but smile when Bayley came running down to just beat the shit out of everyone with the briefcase. I'd imagine that was cathartic for her.
It was a really good full circle moment to have Dakota there, too. It may not have gone the way they wanted creatively, but it became one of those moments where you were happy for the actual performers and not just happy about a storyline development. I had a similar feeling when Dakota and Io showed up last year and you could tell Bianca was just genuinely surprised and happy to see her friends getting a shot.

With the 4H era seemingly winding down it now atleast on paper seems poised to finally give the full push to the follow up era of NXT women their time now which has started with Bianca and Rhea and now IYO. Dakota Rhea Bianca IYO KAIRI SHAYNA SHOTZI CANDICE IMO the best and most stacked era of NXT women.

Imagine 10 years ago saying it would be tricky to turn Bayley face.

Congrats to IYO, one of the most consistently top performers of any womens division of the last decade.
