Stephanie Vaquer successfully defended her Women’s World Championship against Nikki Bella and Raquel Rodriguez in a Triple Threat match on tonight’s episode of WWE Raw. The match ended after Rodriguez was removed from the ring moments after executing her finishing maneuver.
Match Recap
Raquel Rodriguez utilized her strength advantage in the early stages, delivering shoulder tackles to both opponents and executing a fallaway slam on Nikki Bella. Nikki responded by using the ringside environment to her advantage, sending her opponents into the barricades and steel steps to gain separation.
The action returned to the ring, where Rodriguez applied a Gory Special on the champion and landed a twisting Vader Bomb elbow drop for a near fall. Vaquer countered with technical submission holds, including a top wrist lock and her signature Devil’s Kiss. A significant sequence occurred in the corner when Nikki Bella executed a sunset flip powerbomb on Rodriguez at the exact moment Rodriguez delivered a superplex to Vaquer.
The Finish
In the final moments, Rodriguez attempted a double Tejana Bomb, but Vaquer managed to escape. Rodriguez then successfully hit the Tejana Bomb on Nikki Bella. However, immediately following the move, Rodriguez was pulled out of the ring, preventing her from making the cover.
