WWE this week on Raw, again teased Alexa Bliss possibly re-aligning with Bray Wyatt. Bliss defeated Bayley to become the new No. 1 contender to the Raw Women’s Championship, currently held by Bianca Belair.
Per Mike Tedesco’s Raw recap, after the match, Bianca Belair entered the ring and held up the Raw Women’s Championship. Belair extended her hand. Bray Wyatt’s logo then flashed on the video screen, and Bliss immediately set up Belair for the Sister Abigail. Bliss quickly let go and looked shocked by what she just did before scurrying off. Belair looked very confused.
Bobby Lashley was “fired” by Adam Pearce at the end of Monday’s episode of Raw. Seth “Freakin” Rollins defeated Lashley in the main event of the show to become the new No. 1 contender to the United States Championship, currently held by Austin Theory.
Per Mike Tedesco’s Raw recap, after the match, Lashley furiously yelled at the referee in the corner. Another referee then came up from behind, and Lashley furiously swatted him down, thinking it was Rollins. WWE Official Adam Pearce ran down to ringside and got in Lashley’s face. Lashley shoved him away, which infuriated Pearce. Pearce then got back in Lashley’s face and fired him before walking off, as Lashley was stunned.
