WWE Raw: Ronda Rousey vows to win Nia Jax's title at contract signing
Tuesday 22 May 2018 09:42, UK
Ronda Rousey promised to take Nia Jax's title at Money In The Bank during a contract signing between the two on Raw.
The competitors put pen to paper on a deal which will see them clash live on Sky Sports Box Office on June 17, with the Raw women's championship on the line.
WWE Late Night Raw
It will be only Rousey's second televised WWE match but she exuded extreme confidence at the contract signing, which - unlike other events of its type - did not erupt into violence.
Instead there was merely the promise of such from Rousey, who told Jax she has no doubts about her ability to become a champion despite her limited experience in professional wrestling.
Natalya qualifies for Money In The Bank
Five of the eight places in the women's ladder match at the June pay-per-view have now been confirmed, with Natalya sealing her spot on Raw this week.
The Sharpshooter was again Natalya's decisive weapon as she beat Sarah Logan, Liv Morgan and Dana Brooke in a fatal four-way to book her place in the battle for the briefcase.
It means she joins Ember Moon, Charlotte Flair, Alexa Bliss and Becky Lynch in what is already a star-studded line-up at Money In The Bank.
Reigns' match with Mahal confirmed
Roman Reigns began the night in a one-on-one clash with Kevin Owens, which began a tag match, under the orders of Kurt Angle, with Seth Rollins joining Reigns and Jinder Mahal pairing up with Owens.
Rollins secured the victory with a Stomp on Owens but his team's celebrations were cut short by Mahal, who ran wild on the ramp with a chair.
After the match it was also confirmed that Reigns will face Mahal at the Money In The Bank event next month.
Chaos ensues at Lashley 'family reunion'
As promised last week, Sami Zayn brought out Bobby Lashley's three sisters, although something wasn't quite right about the trio.
Lashley himself noticed it too and, after some further provocation from Zayn, a brawl erupted involved all five people in the ring.
One of the 'sisters' was given a huge chokeslam but Zayn escaped largely unscathed. His punishment, however, may not be far away.
