Sasha Banks vs Nia Jax (#1 Contender’s match for the WWE RAW Women’s Championship)

Sasha Banks was in her hometown tonight as she took on the indomitable Nia Jax. As expected, Alexa Bliss was at ringside for this match, seated on a high chair. Jax wiped Sasha out almost as soon as the match began as we headed to commercial.

We came back from commercial to see Jax still in control as she hit Sasha with a headbutt before going down to ringside. Sasha attempted a hurracanrana from the apron but Nia caught her and swung her into the barricade. Nia then rolled Sasha inside the ring for a 2-count. Nia followed it up with a bear hug and a leg drop for another nearfall.

Sasha reversed a chicken wing from Nia Jax to roll her up but only got a 2-count. Sasha then locked in a modified Crossface but Nia hit her with the Samoan Drop for another 2-count. Nia followed up with another Samoan Drop but this time Sasha rolled out to ringside.

When we came back from another commercial break, Sasha finally looked like she was gaining some momentum as she hit Nia with repeated knee strikes in the corner before Nia kicked her away. Sasha locked in a Banks Statement out of nowhere on an unsuspecting Nia. Nia tried to power out of it with a sideslam but Sasha reversed it into a tornado DDT before locking in the Banks Statement as Nia finally tapped.

Sasha Banks def. Nia Jax

We saw the Hardys backstage with Kurt Angle. Angle informed them that they wouldn’t be facing The Revival at SummerSlam when The Miz interrupted them. Miz told Angle off for springing Lesnar at them last week but Angle laughed it off and informed Curtis Axel that he would face Jason Jordan later in the night.

A referee intervened at this time and informed Kurt that there was a problem with Bray Wyatt and Finn Balor.
