WWE Hall of Famer Sean Waltman says Shayna Baszler is the greatest WWE NXT Women’s Champion of all-time. Waltman responded to a WWE On FOX Twitter poll this week asking who is the best women’s champion in the black & yellow brand history.
“Hard choice between Shayna & Asuka. Big fan of both, but I’m going with Shayna,” Waltman wrote. He added in a follow-up tweet, “Footnote: I wouldn’t argue with anyone that says Asuka. It was a tough choice for me.”
The NXT Women’s Title is currently held by Io Shirai, who won it from Charlotte Flair at “Takeover: In Your House” last Sunday. Baszler held the title twice for a combined 548 days recognized by WWE. Asuka, the current RAW Women’s Champion, had one run with the NXT title for 522 recognized days by WWE.
