That’s how you send them home happy. This week’s Monday Night Raw saw a lot of rematches that we had seen over the last several months. The two big segments on the show saw top stars beaten down by the trio of Bobby Lashley, Baron Corbin and Drew McIntyre. That’s not the best way to make the fans happy, so something needed to be done after the show.
According to Wrestlinginc.com, the post show dark match after last night’s Monday Night Raw saw Ronda Rousey, Sasha Banks, Bayley, Natalya and Ember Moon team up to defeat Tamina, Nia Jax and the Riott Squad. Rousey made Liv Morgan tap out to the armbar for the win. All ten of the women appeared on the show but only Moon wrestled, defeating Alicia Fox.
Here’s the match from Monday Night Raw. You can never see the Eclipse enough times:
Opinion: That’s the kind of thing that you have to do on a show like last night’s. Rousey may still be a rookie but she’s one of the biggest stars on the roster. Getting to see this many people in a big match is the kind of thing that lets the fans feel like they got a special treat, which is where you want to go with a dark match. Cool idea here, and the right way to end the night.
Which of these ten is in the best place right now? How would you book the Raw women’s division? Let us know in the comments below.
