Trish Stratus Returned To WWE On RAW, Helping Lita And Becky Lynch Win Women’s Tag Titles

Last night on RAW, Trish Stratus returned, helping Lita and Becky Lynch win the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship from Damage CTRL’s IYO Sky and Dakota Kai.

Stratus took out Bayley, preventing her from interfering in the title match. Lynch put SKY in an armbar while Lita nailed Kai with a top-rope moonsault to dethrone Damage CTRL on the Road To WrestleMania.

Lita and Lynch are both in their first reign as WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions, ending Damage CTRL’s second title run at 114 days. SKY and Kai won the titles from Alexa Bliss and Asuka at WWE Crown Jewel on November 5th, 2022.

Trish Stratus Once Again Sent Home From WWE RAW

Trish Stratus was once again scheduled to appear on this week’s episode of RAW, but it didn’t wind up happening. This marks at least the second time in recent weeks that she’s been brought in and wasn’t used.

According to a report from Fightful, Stratus was originally set to make her return during Bayley’s Ding Dong! Hello segment, but that did not wind up happening as Lita and Becky Lynch appeared and challenged Dakota Kai and IYO SKY for the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championships. That match will be taking place on next week’s episode of RAW.

For what it’s worth, Stratus was actually backstage at the RAW TV tapings in Ottawa, Canada. She had every intention of appearing on the show, but the segment was scrapped due to a “creative change.” Stratus wound up leaving the venue prior to the segment.

As of this writing, there is no word on if Trish Stratus will be appearing on WWE television going into WrestleMania 39. There have been rumors that Trish, Lita, and Becky Lynch will be teaming up to face off against Damage CTRL at WrestleMania 39.

Lita Makes Surprise Return To WWE Monday Night RAW – Aids Becky Lynch Against Damage CTRL

WWE Hall of Famer Lita made her return to WWE during this week’s episode of RAW and has her sights set on Damage CTRL.

In the main event of RAW, Bayley faced Becky Lynch in a Steel Cage match, the same match the pair were meant to have at RAW’s 30th-anniversary show.

During the closing moments of the match, Lita made her return and took out IYO SKY and Dakota Kai who were at ringside.

Lita’s most recent match in WWE was at last year’s Elimination Chamber pay-per-view event, where she lost to then-Champion Becky Lynch in a RAW Women’s Title match.

During an episode of the Broken Skull Sessions, Bayley named Lita as her dream opponent from any era.

It is WrestleMania season, and Lita’s new pattern seems to suggest she likes showing up around the Elimination Chamber. Did she just appear for a one-off last night? Or is there more involvement planned for her in the coming months?

The Bella Twins Express Disdain For WWE Not Referencing Women’s Revolution On RAW Is XXX

The Bella Twins were originally scheduled for an appearance on RAW Is XXX, but the Hall of Famers didn’t show up at the venue. In fact, Nikki and Brie Bella seem to have an issue with how WWE didn’t acknowledge the Women’s Revolution during the 3-hour special.

Pwinsider reports that Nikki and Brie Bella flew out to the northeastern US this weekend. However, instead of appearing on RAW Is XXX, the twin sisters attended a Broadway show instead.

The Bella Twins went live on Instagram to express their disdain for WWE not addressing the Women’s Revolution on the 30th anniversary of Monday Night RAW. They also noted how WWE refrained from mentioning Mercedes Mone or Saraya among those (including them) responsible for the Women’s Revolution. The Bellas were briefly mentioned in Charlotte Flair’s promo on RAW Is XXX.

WWE RAW Is XXX News – Brock Lesnar Returns

This week on RAW Is XXX, Brock Lesnar made his return to WWE programming by attacking arch-rival Bobby Lashley in the main event of the show.

Austin Theory put the WWE United States Championship on the line against Lashley in the closing match of the special RAW episode. With victory almost an inch away, Lashley put Theory through a table. It was at this moment that Lesnar hit the ring and decimated Lashley with an F5. The Beast then F5’d Theory onto Lashley, allowing the victimized champion to score the pinfall victory over the fallen challenger.

Lesnar last appeared for WWE at the Crown Jewel pay-per-view event in November. The Beast defeated The All Mighty at the show despite Lashley dominating the majority of the match.

WWE RAW Is XXX News – The Undertaker Helps Bray Wyatt Take Out LA Knight

The 30th anniversary of WWE Monday Night RAW saw The Undertaker share the ring with current generation Superstars.

LA Knight cut a promo, challenging any of the legends to come out and face him in the ring. The Undertaker, in his American Badass gimmick, appeared on his motorcycle with the Kid Rock “American Badass” theme song buzzing in the arena. The decorated veteran hit the ring and Knight retreated, stating that he would let the old man live another day.

The lights then went out and Bray Wyatt popped up behind Knight, forcing the loud-mouthed wrestler to return to the squared circle. The Undertaker grappled with Knight and held him until Wyatt joined the ring. The Phenom then handed Knight over to Wyatt who nailed him with a vicious Sister Abigail. The Deadman then murmured something in Wyatt’s ear before making his way to the back.

Knight will collide with Wyatt in a Pitch Black match at the Royal Rumble pay-per-view on Saturday, January 28th.

#WWEWomenDeservesBetter Trends After Lack Of Female Legends On RAW Is XXX

The WWE Universe was far from pleased with the lack of female legends during this week’s 30th anniversary edition of Monday Night RAW.

The show saw several legends from WWE’s past return, but very few females from WWE’s past were featured on the three-hour episode.

On Twitter, a hashtag called for the women of WWE to be treated better following this week’s snub.

WWE Hall of Famers the Bella Twins took to social media to express their frustration, with Brie saying “there is a bunch of us they don’t wanna show.”

This weekend will see WWE host its sixth Women’s Royal Rumble match as part of the Royal Rumble 2023 Premium Live Event.
