As seen on this week’s episode of RAW, Sasha Banks defeated Nia Jax to become the new No.1 contender for the RAW Women’s Championship. Banks and Jax went at it against each other in a lengthy match but Banks ended up picking the victory after Jax tapped out to the Bank Statement.
Banks will butt heads with RAW Women’s Champion Ronda Rousey for the first time ever at the Royal Rumble. Before the match began, Rousey cut a promo on Banks and had some words of appreciation for her.
Banks vs Rousey is a dream match for many and now it is finally happening.
