Rhea Ripley captures RAW Women’s Title from Asuka on tonight’s WrestleMania 37 Night 2 show.
Asuka started the match by hitting Ripley with a flurry of strikes. She maintained the upper hand, and it seemed like she caught Ripley unprepared. But “The Nightmare” fired back with a kick and a suplex. She continued to overpower the champion, but Asuka gained some breathing room with a missile dropkick.
Asuka floored Ripley with a DDT from the apron to the floor, and the high-impact move helped her take control. But “The Nightmare” overwhelmed Asuka by stomping her repeatedly.
Asuka fought valiantly, but she was unable to kick of the Riptide, so Ripley when the championship.
This is Ripley’s first main roster title reign. Asuka won the title back at SummerSlam 2020 by defeating Sasha Banks.
