Posted by Dallas Allsopp Monday, May 30, 2022

Welcome to another edition of WOMEN'S WRESTLING WEEKLY—a rundown of the events which have transpired in the world of women's professional wrestling over the past several days not just with the Superstars on WWE programming, but with Impact Wrestling's Knockouts, ROH's Women of Honor, and even a glimpse at the women on the independent circuit.

WWE Monday Night Raw

Becky Lynch vs Asuka

If Becky Lynch was able to defeat Becky Lynch here, she would be added to the WWE Raw Women's Championship match at Hell in a Cell, turning the contest into a Triple Threat. Both women worked well here, creating a compelling narrative that ensures the upcoming title match will be greatly anticipated. If only Lynch could change her style up again - her current gear is atrocious!

Winner: Asuka

Rating: 3.5/5

AEW Dark: Elevation

Mercedes Martinez vs Hyan

Squash City!

Winner: Mercedes Martinez

Skye Blue & Yuka Sakazaki vs Emi Sakura & Nyla Rose

Roxanne Perez vs Lash Legend

Squash City!

Winner: Roxanne Perez

Rating: 2/5

Tiffany Stratton vs Fallon Henley

Squash City!

Winner: Tiffany Stratton

Rating: 2/5

Mandy Rose vs Indi Hartwell

This really was a drawn out mediocre match, highlighting just how far Indi Hartwell's stock has fallen in NXT.

Winner: Mandy Rose

Rating: 2/5

AEW Dark

Kris Statlander vs Avery Breaux

Squash City!

Winner: Kris Statlander

Rating: 2/5

AQA vs Brittany Jade

Squash City!

Winner: Brittany Jade

Rating: 2/5

Robyn Renegade vs Vicky Dreamboat

Squash City!

Winner: Robyn Renegade

Rating: 2/5

Leva Bates vs Kiah Dream

Squash City!

Winner: Leva Bates

Rating: 2/5

AEW Wednesday Night Dynamite

Britt Baker vs Toni Storm

I wasn't sure what to expect with this bout, as I feel Toni Storm is somewhat overrated. Much to my surprise, she contributed to a solid match which played to the strengths of both women. Britt Baker deservedly won, but Storm played her part here.

Winner: Britt Baker

Rating: 3.5/5

Impact Wrestling

Masha Slamovich vs Havok

Squash City!

Winner: Masha Slamovich

Rating: 2/5

Jordynne Grace vs Chelsea Green

This was poor. Chelsea Green continues to flounder on television, continuing to be a hindrance to her opponents. The match was slow, plodding, and not at all interesting.

Winner: Jordynne Grace

Rating: 2/5

WWE NXT UK

Lash Legend vs Emilia McKenzie

Squash City!

Winner: Lash Legend

Rating: 2/5

WWE Friday Night SmackDown

Ronda Rousey vs Raquel Rodriguez

This was not really much of a match as it led directly to a tag team match.

Winner: No Contest

Rating: 2/5

Ronda Rousey & Raquel Rodriguez vs Natalya & Shayna Baszler

I was disappointed to see both teams move with the vigour of a corpse. This was not fun at all.

Winner: Ronda Rousey & Raquel Rodriguez

Rating: 2/5

WWE NXT Level Up

Amari Miller vs Arianna Grace

Squash City!

Winner: Amari Miller

Rating: 2/5

AEW Rampage

Ruby Soho vs Kris Statlander

An average match, all things considered. Kris Statlander is in dire need of a character change.

Winner: Ruby Soho

Rating: 2.5/5

AEW Double or Nothing 2022

Jade Cargill vs Anna Jay

Anna Jay never once looked like winning, therefore That Bitch once again maintains her deserved stranglehold on the AEW TBS Championship.

Winner: Jade Cargill

Rating: 2.5/5

Britt Baker vs Ruby Soho

This match was good, but it felt like it could have stepped into a higher gear. Regardless, Britt Baker is a deserved winner of the tournament.

Winner: Britt Baker

Rating: 3/5

Thunder Rosa vs Serena Deeb

This was the match that Thunder Rosa needed for her AEW Women's World Championship reign. She absorbed all that The Professor threw her way, underlining just why she won the title in the first plce.

Winner: Thunder Rosa

Rating: 4/5

MATCH OF THE WEEK:

Thunder Rosa vs Serena Deeb

A supremely entertaining match!

WOMAN OF THE WEEK:

Jade Cargill

That Bitch is once again underlining why she is the woman of 2022!
