Charlotte and Sasha Banks have been passing the WWE Raw Women’s Title between themselves for a while now. Bayley made a brief foray into the title scene, but that’s over, and the order has been re-established. Charlotte and Sasha are Raw’s dominant females, and they made history last week by headlining Raw as genuine main eventers.

WWE’s top females are now just as important as their male counterparts, and Sasha is the figurehead. She won the belt back from Charlotte this week and received a tremendous ovation from the fans during last night’s show opening segment. Charlotte, of course, interrupted, their HIAC rematch was set, and when Rusev and Roman Reigns got involved, a big tag match was made for later in the evening.

Sasha and Reigns defeated Rusev and Charlotte in one of the night’s better matches, and it was The Boss once again exerting her recent dominance over her rival. Sasha trapped Charlotte in the Banks Statement while Reigns destroyed Rusev with a spear, and Charlotte had no choice but to tap.

The non-title scene is a mess, but the Raw Women’s Title is in rude health at the moment. The match served well to hype two of HIAC’s biggest matches, and with Charlotte and Sasha set to make history as the first women to compete in the barbaric structure, Banks has all the momentum.
