The latest episode of the Friday night show saw Rhea Ripley, Stephanie Vaquer, and Alexa Bliss face Naomi, Roxanne Perez, and Giulia in a six-woman tag team match. Interestingly, all of these stars will be at each other's throats at Money in the Bank, competing in the namesake ladder match for a shot at a women's title.

In the closing moments of the back-and-forth encounter, Perez was left all alone in the ring with Ripley, Vaquer, and Bliss as Naomi refused to tag in and just walked out on her partners. Rhea Ripley eventually got the win for her team after hitting the Riptide on Roxanne Perez.

Just hours following the big betrayal, Naomi took to X/Twitter to mock Roxanne Perez and put her on notice ahead of Money in the Bank.

".@roxanne_wwe fight back girl⚠️ see you tomorrow," tweeted Naomi.

WWE Superstar hoping for a Naomi-like run

Naomi's latest heel turn has done wonders for her career in the sports entertainment juggernaut.

While speaking with Sportskeeda Wrestling Senior Editor Bill Apter, Natalya heaped praise on Naomi, and at the same time, hoped that she would also be pushed like The Glow in WWE.

"Naomi is so inspiring to me because it's proof that Triple H is willing to invest in a talent that has been around for a long time. Naomi, you know she has talked about how she has been waiting 15 years for this chance, to have this match. You know, like, well over a decade to have this moment. Naomi started a couple of years after me. And so the fact that she is this deep into her career and Triple H sees so much value in her ability in the ring and her ability to tell stories, it is giving me so much inspiration and so much faith that you know, my time will come too." [2:49 onwards]
