Big Bad Blog Video Theater-Io Shirai vs Aliyah

Here's the match video of Io Shirai vs Aliyah from last night's episode of NXT. This is a qualifying match for a number one contender ladder match for the NXT Women's Championship that was supposed to be on the NXT Takeover show but now will be taped for the weekly show. The match was announced as Xia Li vs Aliyah. A backstage segment showed that Xia was attacked. Aliyah is in the ring demanding a forfeit. But instead Io Shirai's music plays and Aliyah's demeanor changed. We don't know who attacked Xia. Io has been out for two months with a sprained knee. This was her first appearance. The match went as expected and Io wins with her moonsault. There will be six wrestlers in this ladder match and the winner gets a shot at the NXT Women's Championship after Wrestlemania. Of course Io against either Charlotte Flair or Rhea Ripley would be epic. Plus who knows what kind of craziness Io will do during the ladder match. Enjoy the video!
