Io vs. Sasha incoming!!!!
Any free agent worth getting would probably end up in AEW if NXT hasn't gotten them. Impact is sort of left in the position of either being left with the scarps no one wants, or building their own talent. Sort of like ECW I guess when it had to deal with WWE and WCW in the 90's.
In the least they can probably get EC3 back, unless AEW really wants him.
nxt women's division is well stocked , they don't need main roster to take up spots , heck they don't know what to do with bianca and shayna and both of them could easily get into a feud with sasha. nxt has also signed another female wrestler from japan.
triple h has booked nxt women extremely well but once brought up to the main roster, they have no idea how to use them. they keep using that waste of space lana in some angle and put natallie in matches to bore tthe fans.
I think it's okay for a main roster wrestler to take up spots in nxt as long as the person they are competing against wins in the end. Io beat Charlotte, and she MIGHT beat Sasha. Those wins probably mean more to her than a win over anyone in the current nxt lockeroom. Not that the nxt womans lockeroom isn't well stocked... but there's something to be said about beating one of the horsewomen.
BUt I am curious why Asuka is feuding with Sahsa over Baszler... I can only guess they're maybe saving Baszler for Summerslam because that's an obvious feud after Shayna beat Asuke in the Elimination Chamber.
Io didn't beat Charlotte, that's exactly the problem.
But Io vs. Sasha is such a dream match, both for many fans and for Io and Sasha themselves, that this is one case where many fans wouldn't care so much who wins in the end as long as both women got to tear it up first.
Eh, I wouldn't say Hunter's booked the NXT women well overall. Asuka never truly dropping the belt to Ember hurt them both, Bianca was never really allowed to do anything except challenge for the belt a couple of times and lose, and Shayna's second title reign was allowed to go way too long(though getting Rhea stepping up and heel Io out of it wasn't bad, admittedly). He does seem to have course-corrected some with Rhea, Dakota, Tegan, Io, Shotzi starting to get a lot of burn now, thus not making it a one-woman dominated division, and under-the-radar-talent like Xia Li and Kayden Carter getting slightly more airtime.
