2. Io Shirai Becomes The Number One Contender For The NXT Women’s Championship
This fatal-four way bout between Io Shirai, Candice LeRae, Bianca Belair and Mia Yim will be the perfect opening match for the NXT Women’s division on the USA Network. The creative has cleverly brought two different feuds together in a high-stakes match.
Bianca Belair and Mia Yim have despised each other for the past couple of months. After going through a best of 3 match series earlier this year, they’ll once again compete in the same ring tonight for a huge opportunity.
On the other hand, Candice LeRae and Io Shirai will once again get their hands on each other, which they’ve been trying to do over the past few months. LeRae winning the match will not only be a sweet revenge on The Genius of the Sky, but will also skyrocket her career to the main event scene.

However, Shirai coming out as the number one contender for the title looks very likely. WWE has been pushing her as a threat since she joined the yellow brand. After defeating LeRae at NXT Takeover: Toronto, it looks like her momentum will continue tonight.
