I'd be super bummed if Toni didn't get signed eventually. It's pretty much inevitable at this point. She wants to go and they really like her. She's only 21, so it depends on whether Stardom promise her a big push. They don't usually go all-in with foreigners though, and Mayu is getting the ace push at the moment. I'd kind of like to see her come in and then just have a massive Aussie stable in NXT with her, Buddy Murphy, TM-61, and Rhea.

They can both beat up Dakota though, just because she's a Kiwi.

Feels like Shayna's going to win it and I wouldn't be shocked if it was after Kairi misses the elbow drop for the first time in the tournament.

I feel like we were saying the same sort of things when Pete Dunne was dominating people/being heelish and we expected him to beat Tyler Bate because of how they were setting that up.
Thus, boldly, I'm pretty sure Sane's winning considering she is signed, NXT desperately needs a top babyface and someone to root for whatever Regal decides to do to crown a new champion.
Unless they've signed Shayna between now and Tuesday, obviously.

I don't know if Shayna will sign a talent deal, but I'm sure there's some agreement in place for a Horsewomen vs Horsewomen match so they may put Bayzler over to build to that.

It really can go either way... Sane's the big Japanese star heralded as one of the best wrestlers in the world male or female, Baszler's the crossover athlete applying those skills to great effect... Both have killer finisher moves that have yet to be weakened in this tournament, although Baszler has the advantage there with the out-of-nowhere factor of her hold... Sane's destined to be the replacement for Asuka as the top female star in NXT for the next couple of years, Baszler is looking down the barrel at a major featured bout with this Horsewomen v Horsewomen thing (and will probably have to anchor it for her much less experienced team)... There's arguments for both to be the right winner.

I take great satisfaction in knowing that at this minute Triple H is possibly online looking up deals on bouquets and what sort of flowers he should buy for the Mae Young Classic finale.

Was that Izzy in the front row shaking hands with Kairi?
Poor Bayley.

I want Kevin Owens to show up and throw the flowers out of the ring ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/tongue.png)

All I know is every time they showed Rousey and the others in the crowd, it just made me root even harder against Shayna. ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/tongue.png) I'll be pulling for Kairi.

Yeah, I unironically feel bad for Bayley considering she's got a large section of the WWE against her and now even her #1 fan is getting cozy with other wrestlers....with her in the very same arena. She just can't catch a break.

There's arguments for both to be the right winner. WWE are heavily promoting this, and are especially aiming towards the female demographic. Young girls watching the MYC classic need a positive role model to win the tourney and to establish a babyface that can bring in tons of potential new female viewers to the product and it would be a waste to give Bazzler the win just to promote a Horsewomen feud involving a B-celebrity, one actual wrestler, and two random girls who aren't allowed to speak. ......so yeah, I guess Bazler is going to win this one.

In one hand, Kairi Sane is likable, really good in the ring, her looks is great and she can be marketable as a cool pirate lady for kids and adults alike without having to use Pirates of the Caribbean references. One the other hand, Shayna Baszler is a legit catch wrestler that has benefited from using her knowledge in pro wrestling after hitting her ceiling rather early in MMA. The match is too close to call but, then again, Baszler is Ronda Rousey's roommate so that's an X factor for you...

WWE Network will be airing a highlights recap show on Monday (assuming after RAW), which will feature an exclusive six-woman tag match featuring tournament participants, who are (spoilers)... {Spoiler}{Spoiler}Jazzy Gabert, Kay Lee Ray and Tessa Blanchard vs Marti Belle, Santana Garrett and Sarah Logan Two minor spoiler-ish things: {Spoiler}1) They brought out a whole new commentary team for just this match: Tom Phillips, Nigel McGuinness and Beth Phoenix.
2) Jazzy was apparently huge crowd favorite, so it will be interesting if they mess with the crowd noise at all. The finals are supposedly slotted for only a half an hour to make room for 205 Live, which is ridiculous. Give the women a full hour at least. We can live without 205 Live for a week.

Well, the finals definitely don't need to go an hour, and a good portion of the other girls in the tournament may be stuck in Florida, so I'm not sure what they would do with an hour.

I would have liked a showcase multi-woman match for the alternates that didn't wind up in the tournament. Just to get an idea of what they can do in the ring. *shrug*

It would be great if they did an all womens show one day, i think it would pretty well and give more women a chance rather then only get 5 minute squashes/segements on raw or smackdown every week.With a growing roster of women, there doesnt seem a lot of time for them to really do much on the main shows so a whole one for the women like 205 would be great.
On a small note, i hope this doesnt come across to badly but i find Izzy very odd, she seems to be at every show, always meeting the talent and always getting special treatment, while a lot of other kids at shows get ignored. She has to be related to someone in the company because she seems to always be around the talent. Seen numerous times bayley going all out for her while ignoring the other kids which is kind of sad to me.
