New Raw Women’s Champion Crowned On WWE Raw


The Raw Women’s Title has a home.

Sasha Banks is the new Raw Women’s Champion after she defeated Asuka on Monday’s Raw.

The title was declared vacant last Monday following The Horror Show at Extreme Rules when Banks won the title after Bayley, who stole the referee’s shirt, counted the pinfall. Stephanie McMahon stated the decision would not stand and the two women would settle things in a rematch.

Banks picked up the victory by count out when the big screen showed Bayley attacking Kairi Sane backstage. Instead of continuing the match, Asuka limped to the back to help her friend, thus getting counted out. The rules stipulated that a new champion could be crowned by pinfall, submission, interference, count out or DQ.

This marks the fifth time Banks has won the Raw Women’s Title. She also holds the Women’s Tag Team Titles along with Bayley, who is also the SmackDown Women’s Champion.
