#4 Natalya gave Rhea Ripley a chance to shine on WWE RAW
RAW Women’s Champion Rhea Ripley took on one half of the WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions just before Money in the Bank. Natalya took to the ring to go head-to-head with The Nightmare.
The two superstars started by exchanging some holds and takedowns before Ripley broke out with a big kick. Natalya fought back with some good moves to keep the RAW Women’s Champion under control.
Tamina took a dropkick for her tag team partner at ringside as the action started to pick up. Late in the match, The Queen of Harts applied the sharpshooter to punish Ripley. The Nightmare countered and sent her into the turnbuckles.
She finished off the match by hitting Natalya with the Riptide for the win. After the match, Charlotte Flair came out to attack her opponent for Money in the Bank. She put Ripley in a Figure-Four leglock and did a lot of damage before being pulled away.
Natalya was fantastic in this match and proved to be a great opponent for Ripley. The Nightmare hasn’t had too many good matches on the main roster, and this was arguably her best one yet. The after-match beatdown helped RAW build towards the big RAW Women’s Championship match for Sunday.
