Shayna Baszler desperately needs redemption on WWE RAW
WWE RAW Superstar Shayna Baszler is incredibly talented but constantly falls victim to lazy writing. She did most of the heavy lifting for her team in the match against Natalya and Tamina. Before that, she had even warned Reginald not to be present at ringside. But things didn’t go according to plan, and Baszler was once again pinned on WWE RAW.

Natalya and Tamina took turns to lay a brutal attack on Shayna Baszler during the match, and the latter kept fighting to gain momentum. Unfortunately, when she was finally in a good position, a brief distraction from Reginald stopped her from winning the match. Following that, Baszler asked Reginald to go back, but that led to more problems.
While Reginald was walking backstage, he was blinded by a sudden pyro near the ramp. Baszler was also confused, which allowed Natalya to roll her up for a pinfall. A frustrated Shayna Baszler then stated that she would face Reginald in a match on WWE RAW next week. A victory in this match could also fuel her split with Nia Jax. As for the pyro, that seems to be Alexa Bliss’ handiwork as she pulled off something similar last week.
