The hottest party of the summer took place tonight as WWE lands in Cleveland, Ohio for the annual SummerSlam premium live event.
In the opening match of SummerSlam tonight, the Women’s World Champion Liv Morgan looks to defend her title against former Champion Rhea Ripley. Back from injury, Ripley looks to gain back the title she never lost. But meanwhile, Morgan has been playing mind games with The Judgment Day for the past few months, especially with one Dominik Mysterio.
Mysterio having rejected Morgan’s advances a few weeks ago, arrives in tow with Ripley by her side. Morgan on her own, immediately has the size and strength disadvantage and tries to dodge Ripley in the early goings of the match.
Morgan attempts to target the injured shoulder of Ripley throughout the match, but Ripley finds ways to pop it back in. Nevertheless, Morgan finds a way to even the playing field with Ripley, but both former tag team partners can’t find ways to take the other out.
Morgan reluctantly brings a steel chair into play, for Ripley to just knock it out of her hands. Ripley is adamant to get her revenge, but Mysterio reminds her that the title cannot be won via disqualification.
In a shocking turn of events, Mysterio distracts the referee for Morgan to deliver the Oblivion on the steel chair to retain her title. The two leave and end up tongue wrestling, while Ripley watches in dismay.
Next, the WWE Women’s Championship is on the line as the Champion Bayley looks to defend her title against the Queen of the Ring, Nia Jax. Jax had earned this opportunity the moment she won her crown at the tournament. These two have quite a storied history, but Jax looks to add a belt to her already illustrious crown.
The size advantage of Jax prompts her to take out Bayley quickly, but the fighting champion does not look to go out without a fight.
Bayley with her ring prowess attempts to take out Jax in more ways than one that she had in the past. But, SummerSlam is the perfect moment for “Tiffy Time” as Tiffany Stratton arrives late to the party, and appears with her shiny pink briefcase. Bayley immediately knocks her out for any semblance of a cash-in, but this provides an opportunity for Jax to lay out Bayley.
After two powerbombs and a whopping three aNIAhilators, Jax is crowned your new WWE Women’s Champion.
