#4 Shayna Baszler realizes her NXT dream

Ronda Rousey and Jessamyn Duke added a brilliant touch

When we look back at the night, the Ember Moon vs. Shayna Baszler contest may seem like the weakest match of the lot. However, one must not call it a bad match for the same reason. It was a fantastic contest of strength, spirit and perseverance. It was a very different contest from the opening match and we were entertained.

We wonder if this means that Ember Moon will show up on RAW or SmackDown Live after WrestleMania. While the crowd was pretty exhausted by the time this match happened, following the opening contest, they did pop for the Eclipse outside the ring. There were some great counters during this match, and this played into the fact that these two women knew each other very well.

Baszler would pick up the win and celebrate with her UFC friends at ringside. Despite the fact that she plays a heel, one couldn't help but feel incredibly happy for her!
