The Boss and Hug Connection.
- In her post-match interview with Renee Young after winning the NXT Women's Championship, she starts out in character, bragging and boasting about how the win is proof that she's the best. Then Renee asks her "So what are you really feeling down here?" and points to her heart, indicating that she's asking the person and not the character, at which point she immediately bursts into tears and admits that she's wanted the title since she was 10 years old. Have a watch.
- Her Iron Man match with Bayley created several heartwarming moments.
- The segment where the match was announced. Sasha says that she's been told that their match together was not only the match of the night, but the best women's match of all time. Her voice cracks as she says this, and it's clear she's barely trying not to burst into tears at the emotion of the situation.
- Following the match, the entire NXT roster comes out onto the stage to applaud Sasha and Bayley, and Triple H, Stephanie McMahon and Sara Del Rey present Sasha with flowers as the crowd chants "Thank you, Sasha!". She falls to the floor because she's so overcome with emotion — specifically at the sight of William Regal, one of her earliest supporters in wrestling, who was reportedly also in tears. Many fans immediately admitted that the moment made them well up with Manly Tears.
- During the match, Sasha had gotten Cheap Heat by yelling at Izzy, a young Bayley fan at ringside, and she was later shown reduced to tears by that and the intensity of the match. Apparently, after the show ended, Sasha went up to Izzy and gave her the flowers Triple H had presented her with to apologize.
- Sasha finally winning the WWE Women's Championship from Charlotte after a seventeen-minute match on July 25, 2016, with the crowd fully behind her. Even Charlotte, the top heel of the women's division, broke kayfabe upon seeing Sasha lift the title. After the match, she got in touch with Bayley (who she had teamed up with the night before at Battleground against Charlotte and Dana Brooke) to celebrate their victory.
- After her match at WrestleMania 37, a fan got footage of Sasha selling her injuries after losing her title to Bianca Belair, watching the new champion celebrate with a huge grin on her face.
