5 possible opponents for the new RAW Women’s Champion Sasha Banks

#4 Nia Jax

After an absence from RAW, Nia Jax has returned with a vengeance.

Over the last several weeks, we hadn’t seen or heard much from Nia Jax. Could she be the next in line to face Sasha Banks? She finally returned to our screens this week with an encounter with Shayna Baszler. Jax feels that she has a legitimate beef with the way she lost her match against Asuka at Backlash, calling referee John Cone’s count a fast one.

She has not gotten the opportunity for a rematch, which is a point of contention for her. If she were to get another shot at the title now, it would be against the newly-crowned championSasha Banks. For Banks, this would allow her to showcase her skills against a more physically dominant opponent and show that she can rise to the occasion despite the challenge.

This matchup could also provide a storyline that shows Sasha Banks persevere against the odds of facing the physical Jax, elevating the importance of her new title run.
