The acrobatics and high spots were all over Barclays Center Sunday. In the WWE women's championship match, Charlotte regained her championship from Sasha Banks.
Neither competitor feared for their own self as they were all over the ring, above it and outside it.

Top spots? Charlotte doing a middle rope splash mountain that Banks turned into a huracanrana and Banks doing double knees off the middle rope to the floor.

Sasha appeared to have Charlotte where she wanted in the Banks Statement but the former champ used her size and weight difference to great advantage, turning the tables by falling on top of Banks for the win.

The suspense didn't end with the final bell.
Wrestlinginc.com is reporting Sasha Banks has been removed from all advertising for the next 30-plus days on WWE.com. The reason is currently unclear.
