#6 Ronda Rousey (Champion) vs Sasha Banks for the Raw Women's Championship

Rating: 4.25*

An amazing showcase by these two

This match was spectacular. It had an average start, but, picked up very well from there. It was a hybrid of a submission match and a strike fest which turned out pretty well. Sasha showcased her training with innovative submission moves, mainly targeted at Ronda's right arm.

The story from here was of Ronda's perseverance and Sasha's determination to topple her. There were two suicide dives from Banks, a superplex and a lot more. There was also counter after counter to submissions, all of which were brilliantly done.

The finish had Ronda counter Sasha's submission into a slam and then hit her with Piper's Pit to pick up the win, which in the process effectively put Banks over as she did not tap.

This, in my opinion, was right up there with Ronda's match with Charlotte, if not better. It was also Sasha's best match since her NXT classic with Bayley.
