Asuka won the WWE Raw Women's Championship!!!
Without even notice it...
Raw's edition started really emotionally with Becky Lynch announcing her leave from the company and reveling to the upset Asuka what is in the suitcase. I really enjoyed the pure realism of that moment. The title in the briefcase. Asuka's craziness. And The Man announcing that she retires the belt because she will become the Mom!
I really didn't expect that kind of end of Becky's reign, but actually, it's a kind of different and very beautiful one. With tears filled with joy and sadness, Lynch left the ring and the new Champ who cheered for her sincerely, to take care of her new family!
Congratulations, Becky 'The Man' Lynch! We hope to see you back after a year!
Meanwhile, we had a big comeback in the women's tag team division - the former one-time gold-bearers The IIconics of Peyton Royce and Billie Kay finally made their return on Raw and in A Moment Of Bliss Talk show, trying to challenge for Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross's tag team belts and earning a non-title match.
They were in a good shape, but their double finisher was worse than Cross and Bliss's execution of Flapjack DDT, before. The DDT looks like a total perfection in front of this strange move. But it's nice to see that the women's teams are working to create double team finishers. That is some progress. Also, The IIconics victory means that we might see some serious action for the belts with some serious threat, from an established team.
(Fashion Police: But who told Peyton Royce that these ultra-light blue eyes lenses are a good idea?! She looks fake with them! Remove them, girl! You are beautiful and your brown eyes are pretty, don't mimic Ember Moon. If this is the repackage - give it back!!!)
The last match was a statement for me! Shayna Baszler is not out. She sarcastically says after the match that at MITB she signed for a ladder match and lost a food fight. Defeating Natalya she concreates her intentions to go after the Red brand's top prize, so Asuka should grow eyes on her back...
The show was really emotional at the beginning, really surprised with the new Champ crowned without even realizing that she had won the belt at first, the IIconics return with a victory was a nice twist as well. Shayna's victory was something that no one doubted. So it looks like the landscape on Raw is totally changed and there is finally some movement in that show after the MITB.
