In the first qualifying match, Sasha was victorious in her triple threat match which included Emma and Alicia Fox. Sasha was able to avoid Alicia Fox’s Scissors Kick and then lock in the Bank Statement. Emma was nearby to break the hold before Alicia could tap out but soon found herself in trouble when Sasha locked the Bank Statement on her, thus forcing Emma to tap out.

Later in the evening, Nia Jax took on Mickie James and Dana Brooke and scored a pinball after landing a big leg drop to Dana Brooke after tossing Mickie James to the outside ring.
The winner of next week’s match will go on to face Alexa Bliss at SummerSlam for the Raw Women’s Title.
Who do you think will win next week’s match?
