We’re back with another episode of Monday Night Raw! Let’s dive right into the action.
First piece of women’s action has Ivy Nile working out when she was approached by Chad Gable, Julius Creed, and Brutus Creed. Gable welcomed her to the American Made team, acknowledging that Nile had given Maxxine Dupri a chance. Gable assured her that they were not finished with the Wyatt Sicks.
Ivy Nile vs. Maxxine Dupri
Maxxine Dupri made her entrance with Otis and Akira Tozawa but headed to the ring alone. Ivy Nile, accompanied by Chad Gable and the Creed Brothers, also made her entrance and then proceeded to the ring on her own.
The match started with Nile turning her back to Dupri, who took advantage by dropkicking Nile from behind. Dupri followed her to ringside, suplexed her, and even tossed her over the broadcast table. However, once back in the ring, Nile regained control with a kick and some hard-hitting punches.
Suddenly, the Wyatt Sicks’ eerie lighting began to dim, and their entrance theme played. Nile turned around to find Nikki Cross standing in the ring. Michael Cole finally identified Cross, saying she believes herself to be Abby the Witch.
Gable and The Creeds joined Nile to try and help, but all of the Wyatt Sicks entered including Uncle Howdy. Cross took down Nile and the two ended up rolling out of the ring.
Rhea Ripley warned Damian Priest that his upcoming match with Dominik Mysterio was a trap. Priest acknowledged that it was indeed a trap but stated it was worth it to get his hands on Dom. Priest vowed that they wouldn’t stop until they passed judgment on what he called “this lame-ass Judgment Day.”
Damian Priest made his entrance for his scheduled match with Dominik Mysterio. However, before the match could begin, Carlito, JD McDonagh, and Finn Bálor attempted to ambush Priest. Despite being outnumbered, Priest managed to fend them off, delivering superkicks to Carlito and JD while Bálor fled the scene.
Inside the ring, Rhea Ripley confronted Dominik, blowing him a kiss before headbutting him. Priest followed up with a punch, and the duo began to clear off the commentary table. Ripley teased putting Dominik through the table, but Liv Morgan intervened, attacking Ripley from behind with a steel chair.
The brawl escalated as Priest was beaten down in the ring by the four members of Judgment Day. Carlito delivered a Backstabber to Priest, while Liv sent Ripley crashing into the ring post, commentary table, and steel steps. Liv continued her assault, eventually throwing Ripley into the ring post.
With Priest incapacitated, Bálor hit a Coup de Grace, and Morgan followed up with Oblivion on Ripley. Dominik climbed to the top rope and executed a Frog Splash on Priest. The segment ended with the Judgment Day standing tall over the fallen Priest and Ripley.
Triple Threat for the WWE Women’s Tag Team Titles
The main event featured a Triple Threat match for the WWE Women’s Tag Team Titles with Alba Fyre and Isla Dawn facing Iyo Sky and Kairi Sane, and the team of Shayna Baszler and Zoey Stark, who were accompanied by Sonya Deville.
The action kicked off before the bell, with all six women brawling. The match officially began once Sane and Baszler were the only two left in the ring. Early on, Sane and Sky performed dives on their opponents, leading into a commercial break.
Returning from the break, Sane attempted her Insane Elbow on Baszler but was countered with boots to the midsection. Baszler then applied her submission finisher, but Fyre tagged in just in time. Dawn executed a Backstabber on Baszler who kept Sane in the Kirifuda Clutch, setting up Fyre to hit a Swanton Bomb onto the pile of competitors. Fyre then covered Baszler for the victory.
Winners: The Unholy Union (Alba Fyre and Isla Dawn)
Solid storytelling last night, with the tag match in particular being very good and action packed. Maxxine showed great aggression in the match but the major talking point from the segment was it seems like Nikki Cross found her first victim in this new role as Sister Abigail. The Liv/Rhea storyline continues to be a focal point throughout the show, adding more depth to the upcoming mixed tag match at Bash in Berlin.
