RIGHT: Cedrick Alexander vs. Mustafa Ali
Yes, the cruiserweights matter. Enzo Amore’s vacated title led to some of the best wrestling the promotion has put together and has somehow elevated Mustafa Ali to a legit contender for the belt. The underdog booking and promos have been great and Alexander’s sense of smug confidence adds depth to his character. Not to mention both these men can absolutely go!
WRONG: Sasha vs. Bayley in Battle Royal
Sasha Banks is the best female wrestler on the roster… Yeah, let that settle in. She has more classic matches than Asuka and has an uncanny ability to work everyone’s style and make them look like a million bucks. She’s very similar to A.J. Styles in that regard. That’s why it hurts to see her talent and the ongoing heel turn wasted in the women’s battle royal match. Sasha and Bayley already have two classic NXT matches and the trilogy fight would’ve stolen the show at WrestleMania.
