It was announced tonight on “Monday Night Raw,” that former Women’s Champion Sasha Banks will have her opportunity to regain her title, as she takes on the current champion, Charlotte, at “Clash of Champions.” Banks lost the title to Charlotte at “SummerSlam” back in August.
“The Boss” made her return to WWE programming this evening, after being sidelined with an injury.
Below is the official match preview from WWE.com:
The Boss is back, and she’s coming for the Raw Women’s Champion.
Newly returned from a back injury that put her out of action for several weeks, Sasha Banks will invoke her title rematch clause at WWE Clash of Champions Sunday, Sept. 25, as she challenges Charlotte for the top prize in Raw’s Women’s division.
It was against Charlotte at SummerSlam that Sasha suffered her injury and lost the Raw Women’s Title. Charlotte targeted Sasha’s lower back throughout that contest, seemingly in a deliberate attempt to put The Boss on the shelf.
Since then, the self-proclaimed “genetically superior athlete” has dogged Sasha for working her entire career to win the Women’s Title, only to lose it in her first championship defense.
Fueled by the desire to reclaim the crown, Sasha claims she is back and better than ever, but will that prove to be the case at WWE Clash of Champions? Charlotte and Sasha have split their last two classic battles, both of which floored the WWE Universe with their physicality. In a rivalry marked by parity and riveting back-and-forth competition, the upcoming title bout may go a long way in settling the question of which Superstar truly is superior.
Editor’s Note:
This is quite a surprise, but one that is definitely welcome. Banks and Charlotte always put on good matches, and every time they step in the ring together, they have the potential to steal the show. I’m ALWAYS thrilled to see “The Boss,” and am so glad she’s back!
