A rematch from WWE SummerSlam was scheduled for this week’s WWE RAW as Asuka defended her RAW Women’s Championship against the very woman she won it from, Sasha Banks.

However, this was a lumberjack match where several WWE Superstars surrounded the ring as the two went to war. Banks looked to be in better shape than Asuka and took advantage, after a cheap shot from Bayley on Asuka.

The two women went back and forth while the action spiled outside the ring and the lumberjacks were keen on getting involved in the match aswell.

After being sent into the steel steps, Asuka endured a frog splash from The Boss but then locked Banks in the Asuka Lock to make her tap out once again.

This was a decent match that allowed RAW to close the chapter between Banks and Asuka before SummerSlam. While it’s heartbreaking to see Banks have another short title reign, The Empress is the right woman to lead the RAW women’s locker room at this time.
