#2 Best - Raquel Gonzalez conquers Io Shirai at NXT TakeOver: Stand & Deliver
The main event of NXT TakeOver: Stand & Deliver was yet another belter. Io Shirai put on a magnificent effort in her final NXT Women's Championship defense. Her 300-plus day reign was ended by the dominant Raquel Gonzalez.
The two went at it with frantic ferocity right from the opening bell. The action from that point was excellent, with Dakota Kai being ejected from ringside. Shirai's aerial ability meshed well with Gonzalez's insane power.
The Genius of the Sky was at her very best at NXT TakeOver: Stand & Deliver, pulling out all the stops. She hit a moonsault to the outside, as well as in the ring for an intense near-fall. However, Io Shirai's highlight of the match was a crossbody off the 20-foot skull set up on the stage.
Despite bringing her best, Raquel Gonzalez took out the Genius Of The Sky. She ended Shirai with a brutal single-arm powerbomb and won the NXT Women's Championship.
It was a great way to close the night as both women delivered an instant classic.
