A new match has been added to the lineup for the upcoming WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event special: Rhea Ripley will face Nia Jax in what promises to be an intense showdown. This announcement follows events on this week’s episode of Raw, where Nia Jax ambushed Ripley backstage.
Later in the night, Jax competed in singles action, defeating Raw newcomer Bayley with her finishing move, the An-Nia-Lator. After the match, Ripley confronted Jax, leading to a chaotic ringside brawl between the two.
