The Raw Women’s Division

Highlights of the division

The Raw Women’s Championship match will now be a fatal-4 way at No Mercy, thanks to the champion and top contender losing in their tag team match. The WWE have shown no confidence in either women for months now on having a decent feud or a proper push. This is extremely concerning for the rest of the division. If the WWE could book Bayley, Sasha Banks and Alexa Bliss that poorly for 4 straight months, what makes you think they’ll do any better with Nia Jax or Emma?

Nia Jax must be the odds on favourite to walk out No Mercy as the new Raw Women’s Champion. She has been on the brink of breaking out as the top dog of the division, but the WWE has never really pulled the trigger. The time is now to pull that off. Both Alexa Bliss and Sasha Banks have lost any momentum they had for a while now and Nia could be the woman to steer the division in a new course. It’s about time for the WWE to book a dominant Women’s Champion and Nia Jax is the competitor to do so.

Meanwhile, for the rest of the division.

As for Emma, she was booked perfectly for the first time in years on the main roster. Instead of complaining that she doesn’t get the respect that she deserves, she stole the glory from Nia Jax in their tag team win. By pinning a prone Sasha Banks after the beating she endured by Nia Jax, Emma is taking a page out of the playbook of her Smackdown Live contemporary Carmella. She’s outsmarting her opponents and that could be the key to making Emma relevant again in the division. At the moment she’s still a pretender unless she grabs consistent wins from quality opponents. 

These are the rankings for the division this week.
