5. Ember Moon Wants Revenge On Big Mami Cool

Before those inside of the CWC had time to come to terms with the lacklustre conclusion to the night's opening number one contendership bout, Ember Moon stormed to the ring and wasted little time calling out the NXT Women's Champion.

Gonzalez had beaten Moon's pal Shotzi Blackheart to a pulp last week and made the former champ watch, simultaneously unleashing a fire within the NXT veteran we hadn't seen in years in the process. Never one to back down from a fight, Big Mami Cool barged past William Regal, only to be bullied out of the squared-circle by an enraged Moon. This was merely a ruse designed to lure the former NXT Women's and Tag Team Champion into a false sense of security though as Dakota Kai got the jump on Moon and punt kicked her out of the ring.

It was then revealed later in the night that Moon will get her chance to avenge Blackheart at In Your House, when she goes one-on-one with Gonzalez for the NXT Women's title. This is 100% the direction Gonzalez should be pushed down so early into her reign as the champ, with Moon's high-flying style no doubt meshing well with the explosive power of the top woman in the division and giving her another notable scalp should she come out on top against the one-time main roster star.

... then again, this could all just be part of Kai's plan to stab her friend in the back right when Gonzalez thinks she holds all the cards. This is how you book a top strap.
