10 Secret Times Wrestling TV Mirrored Real Life
3. Four Horsewomen Triple Threat
The exceptional WrestleMania 32 bout pitting last ever Divas Champion Charlotte Flair against challengers Becky Lynch and Sasha Banks existed not just to establish the reintroduced WWE Women's Championship, but to rubber stamp something the company had been working towards for the prior six months.
In the build-up, Flair, Lynch and Banks spoke of wanting to be the front face of a division that was rapidly changing in their image. The three had been called up together from a transformative NXT run in July 2015, but months of empty trios matches, repetitive segments and inconsequential stakes resulted in the whole scene tiptoeing towards being derivative.
The belt was their chance to try and force through real change, and a show-stealing match did just that. Emotions ran high but only because they were real. With fourth Horsewomen Bayley looking on following her TakeOver epic with Asuka two nights prior, the remaining three lived up to the lofty billing and then some.
'The Show Of Shows' was the stage to announce a paradigm shift, but it took relentless graft up to and including this bout to actually make it happen.
