Natalya recently squared off against Rhea Ripely at Night of Champions, where The Queen of Harts got straight away squashed by The Eradicator in mere 69 seconds, which left many shocked. The poor storyline and buildup of this match, along with the lack of in-ring action, left the fans disappointed.
The Eradicator was accompanied by another Judgement Day member Dominik Mysterio, who distracted Natalya before the bell, which resulted in an opportunity for Ripley to attack the 41-year-old. The Nightmare wasted no time and hit Riptide to win the match.
This was the 26-year-old’s second title defense since defeating Charlotte Flair at WrestleMania 39 to clinch the championship. Earlier this month at Backlash, she defeated Zelina Vega in Puerto Rico.
Rhea has been absolutely dominant in WWE over the course of the last year. She has decimated every challenger that has stepped up to her, and it’s hard to predict who can prove to be a viable competitor to The Judgment Day star.
While Ripley defeated her opponent in a matter of moments at the WWE event, another star defeated Bianca Belair, ending the latter’s enormous title reign. Asuka won the RAW Women’s Championship with the help of some innovative use of her mist.
The Empress of Tomorrow rubbed the mist onto her palms before rubbing it onto Belair’s face. She is now the new champion after a long time, having lost it at WrestleMania 37 to Ripley.
