This week on Monday Night Raw, Women’s World Champion Rhea Ripley successfully defended her title against Natalya. According to Fightful Select, WWE higher ups were reportedly “very happy” with the match, with one telling other backstage people that it should be the first thing they should watch when they returned from Money In The Bank.

It was a big one. Check out the match, plus what the two of them can do otherwise:
Opinion: I can’t say I disagree, as the match was heck of a fight between two powerhouses. It made for a heck of a showdown, especially on free television and was one of the best matches from either in a long time. Sometimes you need a good fight and that is exactly what you got here, with two women beating the fire out of each other until one of them was left standing.
