Damage CTRL bounced back from the attack from Jade Cargill on SmackDown as Cargill made the save for Naomi and Bianca Belair.
On the go-home WrestleMania XL episode of Raw, Damage CTRL (Dakota Kai, Kairi Sane, and Asuka) took on the unique team of Tegan Nox, Shayna Baszler, and Zoey Stark. Despite Damage CTRL pulling off a win here, the opposite team looked good in defeat, especially Stark who worked this match really well.
In the end, Damage CTRL isolated Nox and set her up for the InSane Elbow which gave Sane the win for the team. Despite it being an odd choice to pair Nox up with Stark and Baszler when she has her own tag team partner Natalya, it was nice to see Nox and Kai share a ring again.
Elsewhere on Raw we received a rematch and the advertised match between Maxxine Dupri & Ivy Nile vs. Candice LeRae & Indi Hartwell. Dupri was seeking out some revenge from how LeRE has been treating her. Thankfully the match lasted longer than the two minute debacle from last week.
The match came down to LeRae knocking off Nile from the top turnbuckle when the referee was distracted. However, Hartwell continues to not want to be sneaky to win, so in her confused state, Dupri tagged in and pinned her for the win.
LeRae was absolutely fuming with Hartwell and told her she should be embarrassed to lose to Dupri.
Lastly, we had one last brawl between the Women’s World Champion Rhea Ripley and her WrestleMania challenger Becky Lynch. Lynch came down to the ring first and did not mince her words and instead wanted Ripley to come right out to fight. General Manager Adam Pearce tried to stop it with security but the fight eventually moved to the backstage area before Pearce could get some control.
