Tonight on Raw, Alexa Bliss, Carmella, Naomi, and Natalya competed in a #1 ontender's Elimination Match for the Raw Women's Championship at SummerSlam. Bliss eliminated Carmella, which was followed up by Natalya taking out Naomi with the help of a folding press. The ending to the match saw Natalya applying the Sharpshooter on Alexa and forcing a submission to bag an opportunity for Lynch's Raw Women's Championship.

Post-match, a limping Lynch came out and confronted Natalya. A war of words soon ensued as Natalya promised Lynch a war if she wants one.

The heart of the matter

As you must have noticed, the crowd wasn't into the match and came up with a string of disrespectful chants during the bout. Chants of “This is awful,” “Boring,” and “We want Sasha/Becky” could be heard throughout the match.

Bliss has now responded to the incident and went on to retweet a fan tweet that bashed the fans for being disrespectful towards the four women. The tweet talked about the fans wanting the women to be taken seriously, and then making a mockery out of a women's match.

Bliss also posted a tweet herself in response, keeping it short: "Just disrespectful".

Naomi went on to respond with a single "woozy face" emoji.

What's next?

There are many who are against the crowd taking over the show and being disrespectful towards the wrestlers, while some stated that the match was not up to the mark and the fans let the wrestlers know that they were disappointed. Hopefully, this doesn't turn into a weekly shtick on WWE's main roster shows.
