Flair vs. Banks vs. Bayley, RAW Women’s Title – Clash of Champions 09.25.16

September 25, 2020 by Nick

For this week’s Free Match Friday with Clash of Champions coming up this weekend on Sunday, Sept. 27, let’s travel back a few years to 2016. In that year, the RAW Women’s Title was on the line as the champion Charlotte Flair had to defend her title against two women she knew very well – Sasha Banks and Bayley.

This match came after a SummerSlam event where Flair would regain the RAW Women’s Title from Banks. At that time Banks suffered a back injury in which was questionable on whether or not she would be able to have a rematch at Clash of Champions.

Bayley entered this match by defeating Banks and Dana Brooke in a Triple Threat. This secured her spot after she also defeated Flair one-one-one on an episode of RAW previously.

Check out the video above and relive this match and see if Flair was able to hold onto the title.

Check in with Diva Dirt this weekend as we will have coverage of any news, rumors, and results that have to do with Clash of Champions.

Current matches for the Clash of Champions card this Sunday are:

RAW Women’s Title – Asuka (c) vs. Zelina Vega – Kickoff Show

Women’s Tag Team Titles – Nia Jax & Shayna Baszler (c) vs. The Riott Squad

SmackDown Women’s Title – Bayley (c) vs. Nikki Cross
