Alexa Bliss becomes number one contender to WWE Raw Women’s title

Alexa Bliss is the new number one contender to the WWE Raw Women’s Championship. 

Bliss defeated Bayley in a number one contender’s bout on Monday’s Raw to become the top contender to Bianca Belair’s title. 

After the match, Belair offered Bliss a handshake. Bliss offered a hug instead, then used the hug to tease hitting Belair with Sister Abigail, as an alignment between Bliss and Bray Wyatt continues to be hinted at on WWE television. 

In addition, Wyatt’s logo flashed on the arena video wall as Bliss celebrated in the ring following her victory. 

Bliss and Bayley won triple threat matches on last week’s Raw show to set up the number one contender’s match this week. 

The new number one contender to Austin Theory’s United States Championship is also to be decided on Raw, as Seth Rollins and Bobby Lashley square off in a top contender’s bout. 

No date has been announced for Belair vs. Bliss for the Raw Women’s title to this point.
