The WWE Universe was expecting a bunch of surprises on tonight's edition of RAW. However, the conclusion of the main wasn't something anyone had imagined in their wildest dreams. A dual-brand Battle Royal was held to determine the No.1 Contender for Asuka's RAW Women's title. In the end, Lana kicked Natalya out of the ring to win the free-for-all and bag a shot at Asuka's Championship.

Soon after the episode came to an end, Lana took to Twitter and reacted to her big win on RAW. Check out her tweet below:
Lana made her way to the main roster in 2014, along with Rusev. The duo was together for around five years before Lana became romantically involved with Bobby Lashley. Rusev was let go by WWE earlier this year, and Lashley ended up leaving Lana. Ever since then, the Ravishing Russian has been working alongside Natalya on RAW. However, that alliance came to an end on tonight's show when The Queen Of Harts called off their partnership.

Natalya was then drafted to SmackDown while Lana will stay on RAW.
Tonight, Lana somehow managed to win the big one and she will now be facing Asuka for the RAW Women's title. The odds are heavily against Lana, as The Empress Of Tomorrow is one of the best female Superstars in recent memory and will do everything in her power to keep the title around her waist.

He completed his MBA from the Symbiosis Institute of Telecom Management in 2016 and worked with multiple banking institutions, including Tech Mahindra. While he started writing WWE articles for Sportskeeda in 2019 as a hobby, it eventually became a significant part of his professional journey.
Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.
He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
