Backstage News On The Raw Women’s Title Picture, WWE Looks At Potential Opponents For Asuka

– At No Mercy, Alexa Bliss will look to retain her Raw Women’s Championship against incredible odds when “The Goddess” battles Sasha Banks, Nia Jax and Emma in a Fatal 4-Way Match. According to Dave Meltzer in the latest edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, this match is being done to build towards to a singles match between Bliss and Jax.

WWE officials don’t want Bliss and Jax to face off yet in a one-on-one encounter, so they made the Raw Women’s Championship Match at No Mercy a multi-women contest. They also want to keep Bliss, Jax, and Banks strong, which is why Emma was added to the mix.

– WWE.com posted an article looking at five “dream matches” for Asuka on Raw and SmackDown LIVE. WWE listed Alexa Bliss, Natalya, Charlotte Flair, Sasha Banks, and Becky Lynch.
