As far as TakeOver debuts go, Ember Moon's has to be right up there in terms of how impressive it was. All in all, Moon's first showing was sparkling, and her match against Billie Kay really existed to show what she could do between the ropes. Natural athleticism apparently comes easy for Ember.

Just under 5 minutes was all the females were handed, but they made the most of that short period of time. Kay was dominant in portions, showing a nice level of aggression and aiming to stretch the newcomer into submission. By far, the most impressive part of the match was the conclusion.

Hurling herself from the corner, Ember Moon planted Billie Kay with a variation of the Stunner. Twisting in the air, she smartly caught her opponent without any hesitation, landing crisply on her behind in the middle of the ring. Kay sold the move like it had knocked her out.

Fans in attendance fell in love with the move immediately, as did social media. In the eyes of many, this was quite the introduction from Moon.
