6 Ups & 4 Downs From Last Night's WWE Backstage (Jan 28)
4. The Queen(s) City
Charlotte Flair's Royal Rumble win drew a mixed and humorous response from the live crowd stationed behind the panel (in answer to to "Who should she challenge?" a reveller, with strong tones of Teddy Long, replied "THE UNDERTAKER"), but Renee, Booker and Christian took time to give kudos to Shayna Baszler and Bianca Belair in a pleasing diversion from the typical main roster mentions.
Belair's 33-minute stint saw her set an elimination record and throw out some major names in what felt like a main roster soft-launch for the character after one last shot at the NXT Championship at TakeOver: Portland, whilst heavy favourite Baszler did the same amount of damage in less than a quarter of the time.
The future is bright for both, not least with this bonus Fox exposure.
