Nothing to see here; just Shayna Baszler mocking a child and then choking out one of the kiddo's favourite wrestlers again.

Taking place just five days before she'd lose the NXT Women's Title to Rhea Ripley on the 18 December 2019 episode of NXT, Shayna found herself defending that prize against Candice LeRae at a Visalia, California live event.

As was par for the course at the time, the Queen of Spades would of course get the victory here, making LeRae pass out to her Kirifuda Clutch. Despite exiting the ring and starting to make her way to the back, Baszler wasn't finished with Candice - and this was all because of one young fan who really shouldn't have poked the bear.

For this youngster, she proudly held her mini replica NXT Women's Title above her head and told Shayna how she didn't deserve to be the champ. Questioning whether this kid thought that LeRae deserved to be NXT Women's Champion, Baszler informed the child that "you did this", before re-entering the ring and choking out Candice one more time.

By the look on her face at the end of all this, this poor fan must've had nightmares about Shayna Baszler for the next several weeks. Traumatised doesn't even start to cover it.
