Following the chaotic ending to last week’s show, Liv Morgan kicked off the latest episode of Raw. Morgan and Nia Jax set aside their differences as they stood alongside Raquel Rodriguez, Tiffany Stratton, and Candice LeRae. This prompted Bianca Belair and co.
to come out. Morgan laughed at the four, as they were outnumbered. However, Morgan’s smile faded after Rhea Ripley came out.
Marching down the ring in a face mask, Ripley screamed “WarGames” before headbutting her rival. A brawl ensued that ended with Ripley, Belair, Naomi, Jade Cargill, and Iyo Sky standing tall. For the third consecutive year, there will indeed be a Women’s WarGames match at Survivor Series.
Despite suffering an orbital injury, The Eradicator has come back seeking vengeance on Morgan and Rodriguez. The last time fans saw Ripley on television was on the October 29 edition of NXT. While paying a visit at the Performance Center, the former Judgment Day member got brutally attacked in the parking lot.
