If you thought Becky Lynch and Nia Jax were through with each other, think again.
Round one went to Jax, round two was a disqualification thanks to Liv Morgan, and now we are going round three in a Last Woman Standing Match. The match will take places next week on March 18.
On the March 11 episode of Raw, Lynch went one-on-one with Liv Morgan. This was the first time the two would meet in a singles match since the Day 1 premium live event in January 2022. At that time Morgan was in the climb of her singles career and chasing the Raw women’s Title.
This match was fantastic and a great showing for both. Morgan hit several codebreakers throughout the match and ObLIVion but couldn’t keep The Man down. They even exchange armbars in submission attempts. It would come down to Lynch hitting the ManHandle Slam for the victory, but Morgan looked great here even in defeat.
As Morgan was leaving the ring, the Women’s World Champion Rhea Ripley came down to the ring. Morgan had some words for Ripley as she passed her. In the ring, Ripley congratulated her WrestleMania opponent Lynch for her win against Morgan. But she asked if it was worth it. She doesn’t think with all of these matches Lynch keeps having she will be 100% come Mania.
Moments later backstage, Morgan and Lynch would shake hands before Nia Jax entered. She took out Morgan before landing Lynch through a merchandise table with ManHandle slam.
Elsewhere on Raw, The Kabuki Warriors defended their Women’s Tag Team Titles against Zoey Stark and Shayna Baszler. Another quality match where Stark and Baszler almost secured the gold on a number of occasions.
The final moments had Kairi Sane in the Kirifuda Clutch, but it was Dakota Kai on the outside who grabbed the foot of Shayna Baszler to make her break the hold. This allowed Asuka to hold back Baszler for Sane’s InSane Elbow to get the pin and the victory.
