Free Agents – Not Drafted

As for matches of the night –
Shayna Baszler defeats Dana Brooke in a quick match with the Kirifuda Clutch. Baszler went to attack Brooke on the steel steps as she has in recent weeks to Nia Jax and Eva Marie but Doudrop came out and stopped the attack. Baszler went after Doudrop but then backed away when it didn’t seem to phase her. With Baszler moving to SmackDown and Doudrop/Dana Brooke staying on RAW, not sure if this will even amount to anything.
The Women’s Tag Team Titles were on the line with a rematch between the champs Nikki A.S.H & Rhea Ripley against Natalya and Tamina. The champs would retain against the challengers with Ripley hitting a Riptide on Tamina. She would then throw Nikki on top of her for the pin.
In the main event, Bianca Belair took on Charlotte Flair. The match ended in a disqualification when Becky Lynch interfered much as she did on Belair’s match against Sasha Banks on Friday’s SmackDown.
Speaking of Banks, she would appear after the match and attack both Belair and Lynch.
