Io Shirai has finally done it. After chasing the title for so long, the Joshi Judas has finally got the NXT Women's Championship around her waist.

In what was a night where the Women's division of NXT lived up to expectations, the Joshi Judas defeated Charlotte Flair and Rhea Ripley in a classic encounter.

It was not easy to pick a winner in this contest as all three women gave it their all. There were some insane spots in the match as well with the Joshi Judas jumping off the top of the set and on to her opponents.

In the end, it was a moment of brilliance that gave Shirai her deserved NXT Women's title win. It seemed like Charlotte was going to secure another win and a successful championship defense when she had the Figure 8 locked in on Ripley. Just when we thought we were going to see shades of WrestleMania 36, Io Shirai executed a perfect Moonsault on her opponents to break up the submission and also get the pinfall.

The journey has not been easy for Io Shirai. She has had a lot of opportunities at the title before but always came up short. It was after one of her famous matches against Shayna Baszler that Io Shirai decided to embrace the dark side and become a heel. However, that did not stop the NXT Universe from cheering her on everytime she stepped inside the ring.

Well, there is a new queen on NXT and the fans, Superstars and even legends seem to be happy with this win for Io Shirai.

So, let's take a look at the best reactions from Io Shirai's NXT Women's Championship win.
