Raw Women’s Champion Asuka kicked off Monday Night Raw ready to take on Charlotte Flair. However, The Queen did not even get to make her grand entrance before newly-crowned WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions Sasha Banks & Bayley interrupted her and graced Raw with their presence. The Queen arrived next, ready to shoo away the champions and start her match with The Empress of Tomorrow.
Billie Kay & Peyton Royce entered the arena next, trying to get one last dig at the champions ahead of their Triple Threat Match this Sunday at WWE Backlash. The tension in the ring eventually blew up into a six-woman brawl where Asuka and Flair fought off both of the interrupting teams, setting the stage for a huge Tag Team Triple Threat Match.
​
Despite being the least experienced team in the match (and expecting to be facing each other at this point), Asuka and Flair proved to be the most focused team in this Triple Threat Match. The Queen and The Empress picked up the win when Asuka forced Billie Kay to tap out to the Asuka Lock. Their alliance was short-lived, however, as The Queen dropped the Raw Women’s Champion after the bell, letting her know that things wouldn’t be so friendly when they squared off one-on-one later in the evening.

WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions Sasha Banks & Bayley arrived on Raw ready to celebrate “The Role Model’s” birthday. However, Billie Kay & Peyton Royce demanded an answer to their challenge from earlier in the night. A back-and-forth of insults turned even more sour when Royce slapped The Boss in the face, leading to Bayley accepting the challenge, seemingly setting the stage for a title match next Monday.
