Sasha Banks defeated Alexa Bliss via count-out at the ‘Great Balls Of Fire’ Pay-Per-View event. As a result, Alexa retained the RAW Women’s Championship. It was looking clear that Sasha would be getting another shot at the title (in a singles match), maybe even at Summerslam.
Not so fast, on RAW last week Bayley pinned Alexa Bliss in the tag team match (Sasha and Bayley against Alexa and Nia Jax). Plus, Nia Jax has been saying for the past few weeks that she deserves a shot at Bliss and her belt.
Summerslam 2017 Rumors
On Wrestling Observer Radio (subscribe here), Dave Meltzer and co-host Bryan Alvarez were discussing the Women of Smackdown Live being put into another multi-person match at Battleground. In case you missed it, Charlotte Flair vs Becky Lynch vs Lana vs Natalya vs Tamina was announced with the winner earning a title shot against Naomi at Summerslam. During this discussion, Meltzer said that a multi-person match (fatal 4-way) is also the plan at the moment for the RAW Women’s Title at Summerslam.
If this ends up happening, we can assume that based on RAW this week WWE will be going with Alexa Bliss vs Sasha Banks vs Bayley vs Nia Jax.
As we mentioned earlier, there is some speculation that there will be several multi-person matches at Summerslam this year in order to get more talent on the card. This would be an example of this if it ends up happening.
