Shotzi & Rodriguez Gain Momentum Heading Into Fatal Four Way Tag Title Match

by

Raquel Rodriguez is getting acclimated to her new tag partner in Shotzi.

Since having to vacate the tag titles due to Liv Morgan’s injury, Rodriguez had to find a new tag team parneter. She will get a chance to win the tag team belts back with Shotzi on this coming Monday’s Raw. It will be a Fatal Four way that also includea Damage CTRL, Sonya Deville & Cheslea Green, and Shayna Baszler & Ronda Rousey.

Before they get to Monday however, Rodriguez and Shotzi had to take on Damage CTRL’s Bayley and IYO SKY. The final moments of the match had Bayley go for a sunset flip on Rodriguez but couldn’t get her over. SKY, who was on the top rope, backdropped on Shotzi. However Rodriguez was able to pin Bayley picking up the win.

As Night of Champions is set for tomorrow, the Raw Women’s Champion addressed her opponent Asuka. Belair stated the Asuka she knew at WrestleMania she respected. But this Asuka? She does not. She was not happy about Asuka interrupting her home championship celebration a few weeks ago. Asuka’s music would hit and she would emerge from behind Belair in the ring

Asuka locked in an arm bar and wouldn’t release until officials had to come out and break it up. The women broke free and Belair went for the KOD but Asuka landed on the officials. She quickly rolled out of the ring and laughed as she exited up the ramp.


Diva Dirt will have a Night of Champions Discussion Post ready to go at 1 PM ET on Saturday.

Asuka Returns On SmackDown; Morgan & Rodriguez Retain

by

Asuka is back and is on her new home of SmackDown.

Asuka hasn’t been seen since her loss against Bianca Belair for the Raw Women’s Title at WrestleMania six weeks ago. Now she is back and still not over her loss.

Bianca Belair went to the ring for a celebration in her hometown. But before Belair could even grab a mic, the Empress was on her way to the ring. Asuka extended her hand to congratulate Belair for becoming the longest reigning woman’s champion in the modern era. Reluctant at first, Belair shook Asuka’s hand but was greeted eith the blue mist right to her face.

Belair sold the mist perfectly as officials came down to the ring to help her and keep Asuka away.

Elsewhere on SmackDown this week, the tag titles were on the line as the champs Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez defended them. Their opponents were Bayley and Dakota Kai of Damage CTRL. IYO SKY was at ringside.

The match was solid between the two teams. The final moments had Bayley instructing SKY to grab a title belt for her to use while Kai was laid out on the outside. Rodriguez caught it and played tug of war with the belt as SKY was on the ring apron. Bayley inadvertently knocked SKY off the ring apron as Rodriguez gave a boot to Kai by the timekeepers area.

Back inside Morgan took advantage as she stacked up Bayley to get the three count and retain the titles.

Throughout this match, the newest SmackDown Superstars and the NXT Women’s Tag Team Champions Isla Dawn and Alba Fyre looked on backstage.

On NXT Level Up, Kelani Jordan made her TV debut as she faced Wendy Choo in a losing effort. But an impressive debut nonetheless.

Rhea Ripley Victorious Over Bayley; Carmella Misses Raw; Asuka Finally Attacks Belair

by

On the March 20 episode of Raw, we witnessed a couple of matches from the women as we are just two weeks out from WrestleMania 39.

The Royal Rumble winner Rhea Ripley who will face Charlotte Flair at the big event went to the ring to cut a promo. She promises to defeat Flair at Mania and become the new SmackDown Women’s Champion. Her promo was interrupted by Damage CTRL who heckled her and let her know that Raw belongs to them. This led to a match between Ripley and Bayley. In this match, Ripley would have to take the babyface role despite her current character.

Once Bayley was able to maintain some offense and take control of the match, the Women’s Tag Team Champions Becky Lynch and Lita along with Trish Stratus make their way out to the ring. Lynch with a giant bag of popcorn just to witness the match. This distracts Bayley severely despite having both Dakota Kai and IYO SKY at ringside. The trio who arrived were able to keep the rest of Damage CTRL at bay long enough for Ripley to hit the Riptide and get the big win over Bayley keeping her looking strong for Mania.

A backstage segment took place between WWE’s resident Karen, Chelsea Green with Adam Pearce. Pearce was attempting to explain the WrestleMania Showcase matches when Green approached him. Green let Pearce know that for whatever reason, Carmella was not present for their tag team match tonight. This led Green to take matters in her own hands and wanted Piper Niven as her partner who was with her. Green states that if Pearce doesn’t allow this to happen she will go to the manager. Niven replaces Carmella in the tag team match.

That match was against the Raw Women’s Champion Bianca Belair and her WrestleMania opponent Asuka. Yes, they did the “can they co-exist match.” It turns out they were able to co-exist as Belair and Asuka would pick up the win after Belair pinned Niven after a KOD.

Post match, Asuka finally attacked Belair for the first time since their “rivalry” started. This left the Raw Women’s Champion laid out in the the ring to end the segment.

The fight between Otis or Otise continues to go between Maxxine Dupri and Chad Gable. Otis would accompany Gable to ringside for his match, however, Dupri would come out to take Otise away from the ringside area.

Tag Team Match Set For March 20 Raw

by

A tag team match has been booked for the March 20 episode of Raw. Carmella and Chelsea Green will team up to face the Raw Women’s Champion Bianca Belair and her WrestleMania opponent Asuka.

This match came about after what took place on the March 13 episode. Belair took on Green in a singles match. Green of course had her new partner in crime Carmella at ringside. Despite Carmella getting involved multiple times, the EST still was victorious. Green hit a hard strike on Belair at the ropes but would land herself in the KOD.

Post match, Carmella went right for the super kick but Belair caught her. But the numbers game was too much and team C2 beat down the champ. Asuka came down for the save but she would then pick up the Raw Women’s Title belt. She would parade it around and dance with it, playing mind games with Belair. The blue mist would ooze from her mouth and she would start laughing to end the segment.

Other women on the show included Candice LeRae and Rhea Ripley at ringside during the Johnny Gargano & Dexter Lumis vs. The Judgment Day match. LeRae and Ripley would get physical with Ripley getting LeRae in the electric chair before landing her on the barricade.

Maxxine Dupri was on the show as it appears Otis is giving into the Maximum Male Models as he was doing a photo shoot. This was much to the chagrin of Chad Gable who had been looking for him all night.

Lastly, Trish Stratus was attacked earlier in the day backstage by all three members of Damage CTRL. The Women’s Tag Team Champs Lita and Becky Lynch arrived later during the show and rushed in to see Stratus. They would regroup for a quick interview later in the show.

Lita & Becky Lynch Crowned NEW Women’s Tag Team Champions, Trish Stratus Returns

by

We have new WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions just five weeks before WrestleMania 39!

And if you asked me who that would be even a month ago, I wouldn’t be able to even fathom that it is WWE Hall of Famer Lita and Becky Lynch! Lita and Becky Lynch defeated Damage CTRL (Dakota Kai and IYO SKY) in the main event of the Feb. 27 episode of Raw to become champions. This ends Damage CTRL’s reign at 115 days and this is the first time both Lita and Lynch have won tag team gold.

This is Lita’s first championship since 2006.

If this wasn’t enough, fellow Hall of Famer and bestie of Lita, Trish Stratus made her return. She would come out in the last few minutes of the match as Bayley was doing everything she can to try and have Damage CTRL retain. Stratus came out and targeted Bayley. The final moments of the match had Lita going up top for a Litasault but Bayley hopped up on the apron to stop her. This led to Stratus pulling down Bayley. Kai on the other side tried to stop Lita as well but was taken down by Lynch. Lita was able to execute her Litasault on SKY and get the three-count crowning new champions.

Lita, Lynch, and Stratus celebrate in the ring as pyro goes off to end the show.

There were two other women’s matches on this week’s Raw.

Piper Niven took on Candice LeRae. LeRae made her way out to the ring with Nikki Cross creeping behind her. Cross stayed at ringside for the match. This match didn’t get as much time as the other two women’s matches but progressed the storyline a bit with Cross being taken out by Niven when she tried to get involved. This caused too much of a distraction for Niven so LeRae picked up the victory. LeRae rushed to the back after the match without Cross who was laid out at ringside.

Asuka also took on Carmella this week and for the first time in a singles match, Asuka has been able to defeat Carmella. This match was given a nice bit of time and was a solid match – giving Carmella a lot of offense. Unfortunately for Mella, she wasn’t able to break out of the armbar submission that Asuka has been using to take out all of her opponents since returning at the Royal Rumble.

Post-match, Asuka called out Bianca Belair. Belair responded and made her way to the ring. However, the talk between the two didn’t last long as Carmella would attack Asuka from behind, pushing her into Belair and knocking them both down.

Moments later, we see that Chelsea Green was in Adam Pearce’s office. She was complaining that she was sent to Ottawa, Illinois last week instead of Ottawa, Canada. She asked Pearce how she was supposed to know there was an Ottawa, Canada, but Pearce reminded her that she is from Canada. Carmella would come in to interrupt.

Pearce received a phone call he had to take but told Carmella that she would face Belair next week. Then, Carmella and Chelsea introduced themselves to one another. Both seemed to vibe with one another and liked each other’s style.

Maxxine Dupri continues to scout Otis. Backstage, Dupri told Otis that he needs to get a match and she would be at ringside for him. He got a match against Johnny Gargano, but would end up losing the match after Dexter Lumis appeared to take care of Maximum Male Models who were trying to take out Gargano at ringside.

Asuka Wins Elimination Chamber, Set To Face Bianca Belair At WrestleMania

by

At the 2023 Elimination Chamber event, Asuka would enter the chamber last and outlast five other women to punch her ticket to WrestleMania.

The match started with Liv Morgan and Natalya and lasted nearly 20 minutes. Big spots in the match included Nikki Cross delivering a cross body off the top of Carmella’s pod. Morgan hit a sunset flip from the top of a pod to Raquel Rodriguez. And there was also a moment where Rodriguez drove Cross in through a pod that Carmella was trying to keep herself in.

The first elimination was by Rodriguez to Cross. The second and surprising elimination was Morgan, but she didn’t go out easy. She would end up passing out in both the Sharpshooter by Natalya and a combo submission from Asuka. Carmella would eliminate Natalya about 17 minutes into the match by pinfall. Rodriguez was eliminated by Carmella and Asuka leaving us with the final two.

Carmella immediately hit a superkick on Asuka trying to get the surprise victory, but Asuka was able to kick out. Finally, Asuka got Carmella into submission which cause the Princess of Staten Island to tap out.

Asuka will be facing Bianca Belair for the Raw Women’s Championship at WrestleMania making the second women’s match confirmed for the two-night event. Charlotte Flair and Rhea Ripley will do battle for the SmackDown Women’s Title.

Speaking of Ripley, the Royal Rumble winner, had a huge match at this event alongside Finn Balor. They faced the team of Beth Phoenix and Edge. A longtime coming match between the Grit Couple and the Judgment Day.

In one of the best mixed tag team matches in years, the four competitors put on one heck of a match. Lastly nearly 14 minutes, it would be Phoenix and Edge to pick up the big win in Canada. Edge would pin Balor.

Great event overall!

Asuka Builds Momentum Heading Into Elimination Chamber

by

Asuka picked up a big win against Liv Morgan on the Feb. 17 episode heading into the weekend. Tomorrow, Feb. 18 will be the fifth women’s Elimination Chamber Match in history which will include both Asuka and Morgan. The other four women in that match will be Carmella, Nikki Cross, Natalya, and Raquel Rodriguez.

On SmackDown, Carmella took to commentary while Asuka and Morgan squared up in the ring. The match was very equal between both women with each hitting some great spots. This included a codebreaker from Morgan to Asuka from the top turnbuckle.

With Carmella on commentary, the rest of the chamber participants had to emerge. First was Rodriguez who had heard enough of Carmella talking bad about her. Carmella complimented her big back to try and calm her down.

Cross would jump on the commentary desk and sit in the lap of Wade Barrett while asking if Michael Cole would be her best friend. Natalya would join and watch from the other side of the ring. Carmella wasn’t pleased with Barrett’s commentary so started doing it herself.

The final moments of the match had Morgan get caught up in the ropes going for ObLIVion but Asuka misses wildly with a kick. Morgan rolls up Asuka for a count of two but Asuka locks in a submission causing Morgan to tap.

Post-match, all members of the chamber match get involved in the ring. Carmella lands a superkick on Asuka before Natalya takes down Carmella with the lariat. Cross then executes a swinging neck breaker on Natalya before Rodriguez lands Cross on the mat with a Tejana Bomb. Rodriguez helps Morgan back up who is in the corner. As the two take a look up at the chamber that is hanging above the ring, Morgan takes out Rodriguez with a codebreaker. Asuka lands a roundhouse kick to Rodriguez as well. Both Morgan and Asuka lock eyes before Morgan leaves the ring.

The other women’s match of the night opened the show and it was a tag team match with Natalya teaming up with Shotzi to take on Ronda Rousey and Shayna Baszler. Both Nattie and Shotzi have unfinished business with Rousey and Baszler for attacking them in the past which is why they have joined up.

The final moments of the match had Rousey in trouble as she was in the Sharpshooter by Natalya for quite some time. Baszler distracted Natalya which made her break the hold. Baszler pulled Natalya out of the ring for Rousey to lock in a submission on Shotzi who tapped out.

B-Fab and Hit Row performed only to be taken out by Bray Wyatt and Uncle Howdy.

A Charlotte Flair and Rhea Ripley Segment is set for next week.

Carmella Qualifies For Last Spot In The Elimination Chamber

by

Carmella has made her in-ring return to Raw and in a big way. She qualified for the last spot for the Elimination Chamber match by winning a Fatal 4-Way that also included Michin Mia Yim, Candice LeRae, and Piper Niven.

Final moments of the match had Carmella in charge against LeRae in the corner. Carmella sidestepped which allowed Niven to hit a cannonball on LeRae. A super kick by the Princess of Staten Island on Niven took her out of the match. She stacked up LeRae to get the pin.

Carmella now joins Raquel Rodriguez, Liv Morgan, Asuka, Nikki Cross, and Natalya for the Elimination Chamber on Feb. 18. The winner of the match will face Bianca Belair for the Raw Women’s Championship at WrestleMania 39.


In a backstage segment post match, Niven ran into LeRae and Yim. She warned them to never get in her way for a championship opportunity again.

A six woman tag team match has been booked for next week’s Raw as the women in the chamber from the red brand take on the women in the chamber from the blue brand. Carmella, Cross, and Asuka vs. Rodriguez, Morgan, and Natalya.

Nikki Cross has finally been caught stalking Candice LeRae. Dexter Lumis drew a picture of Cross watch the Garganos as she was actually watching them. Cross ran off.


Chelsea Green also had a short match against Asuka. All the chamber participants were at ringside. Green was more focused on the women outside the ring which allowed Asuka to get the submission victory. Post match, the Raw Women’s Champion Bianca Belair came out to say she looks forward to see who she will be facing at WrestleMania.

Alexa Bliss Becomes Number One Contender; Asuka Hints Character Change

by

Alexa Bliss is the new number one contender for Bianca Belair’s Raw Women’s Championship. A date for the Bliss vs. Belair match was not announced.

She took on Bayley to start off Raw this week and came away with the victory after delivering Twisted Bliss. The WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions Dakota Kai and IYO SKY accompanied Bayley to the ring. However, Becky Lynch arrived and attacked both Kai and SKY taking them out threw the crowd and away from the ring prior to the match starting. Belair came out to ringside to watch the match.

After Bliss picked up the victory she went to give Belair a hug in the ring and caught the Raw Women’s Champion in Sister Abigail. She wouldn’t execute the move releasing Belair as the two backed away from one another. Just before the Sister Abigail tease, the Bray Wyatt symbol appeared on the big screen behind Belair.

The second match of the night was the advertised Candice LeRae taking on IYO SKY. The two have a lot of history from NXT and LeRae was looking to finally get a win over SKY.

Prior to the match, LeRae had a backstage segment with Johnny Gargano and Dexter Lumis. For another week, Nikki Cross appeared behind LeRae spying on her. SKY would end up winning the match after delivering her moonsault. Damage CTRL celebrated in the ring following SKY’s win. LeRae is still winless against SKY in singles matches.

Lastly, the third women’s match had Asuka taking on Rhea Ripley. Although we have seen this match recently, this time felt different as Asuka came to the ring and wrestled without her normal face makeup on. During the match, commentary brought up Asuka’s recent Twitter postings being unusual. For those who have not been caught up, Asuka has been posting her prior to WWE character Kana frequently on social media since last week.

Asuka would take the loss in this match after she spit mist in the face of Dominik Mysterio. This allowed Ripley to deliver the Riptide.

Bayley vs. Alexa Bliss Set For Number One Contender Match

by

After two Triple Threat battles with all former Raw Women’s Champions on the Dec. 5 episode of Raw, Bayley and Alexa Bliss have earned a Raw Women’s Championship number one contendership match. They will face off next week with the winner going on to face the champion – Bianca Belair.

On this week’s Raw, Bayley won the first Triple Threat match after pinning Asuka off of the Rose Plant finisher. Also in the match was Rhea Ripley. A strong match between the three also had a post-match assault from Ripley to Asuka as she takes out her frustrations from her loss.

Prior to the match, Becky Lynch and Bayley exchanged words. Lynch came down from the crowd to join Bayley in the ring. With Lynch being in the main event in the second Triple Threat, she was hoping Bayley would win so they could face each other next week. As Ripley was heading to the ring, Lynch made her way to the back and the two exchanged a stare down that certainly gave fans something to look forward to at some point in the future.

The second women’s match was the main event with Lynch taking on Nikki Cross and Alexa Bliss. Another lengthy match for the women ended with Damage CTRL’s IYO SKY and Dakota Kai interfering. They pulled Lynch out of the ring and eventually carried her over to the announce table to powerbomb her through it. This allowed Bliss to pick up to victory on Cross after delivering Twisted Bliss.

Earlier in the night when Bliss was getting ready for her match, the Bray Wyatt symbol showed up again on the TV screen behind her for a second. During the Triple Threat, Bliss did exhibit some hints of turning back to Evil Bliss but it never fully committed. She did go for Sister Abigail on Lynch but the move was not executed.

Elsewhere for the women on this week’s Raw, Dana Brooke, Tamina, and Mia Yim were part of the poker game in the back. Yim did accompany The O.C. to the ring for their match.

After getting a big win against Dakota Kai last week, Candice LeRae was interviewed backstage. It was revealed that she will be facing IYO SKY next week. During the interview, for the second week in a row, Nikki Cross was spotted in the background spying on LeRae.

The Raw Women’s Champion Bianca Belair was interviewed backstage as well this week discussing who could potentially be her upcoming opponent.
