Raw Women’s Champion Alexa Bliss vs. Nia Jax (Extreme Rules Match)

At WWE Extreme Rules, Nia Jax will get her Raw Women’s Championship rematch against the very Superstar who stole the coveted title away from her at WWE Money in the Bank, her one-time “best friend” Alexa Bliss. Even better, it will be in an Extreme Rules Match.

The extremely volatile history between the friends turned bitter foes reached its apex when Jax defeated Five Feet of Fury at WrestleMania to claim her first Raw Women’s Championship.

However, Alexa brought Nia’s title reign to a screeching halt at WWE Money in the Bank; after overcoming seven elite Raw and SmackDown LIVE competitors to become Ms. Money in the Bank, Little Miss Bliss stunned the WWE Universe by interrupting the Raw Women’s Championship Match between the reigning titleholder and Ronda Rousey on the same night. After ending their title bout with a briefcase attack on The Baddest Women on the Planet and The Irresistible Force, Alexa cashed in her newly-captured contract on the war-torn Nia to become a five-time Women’s Champion. 

The following night on Raw, an irate Rousey was suspended for putting her hands on Raw General Manager Kurt Angle and WWE officials as she brutalized the braggadocios new champion, but not before Angle had made the rematch between Jax and Bliss for WWE Extreme Rules.  

Bliss reinforced that she is a cunning and ruthless competitor, one who will stop at nothing to take her place at the head of the pack, but will she be ready for Nia, a truly imposing Superstar who possesses the talent and the attitude (not to mention the DNA) to reclaim her title in short order?

As if the stakes of the match weren't high enough, Rousey has since made it clear that, although she has been suspended from Raw, she will be buying a front row ticket for the pay-per-view showdown. What, if anything, she will do once she gets there is anyone’s guess. 

Ronda Rousey sits down with Renee Young to reflect on her suspension, and to deliver a message to Raw Women's Champion Alexa Bliss.
