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
Raquel Rodriguez & Aliyah vs Nikki A.S.H. & Doudrop
Squash City! Raquel Rodriguez and Aliyah are actually an adorable package, which I did not expect to get behind.
Winner: Raquel Rodriguez & Aliyah
Rating: 2/5
AEW Dark: Elevation
Julia Hart vs Alice Crowley
Squash City!
Winner: Julia Hart
Rating: 2/5
Serena Deeb vs Nikki Victory
Squash City!
Winner: Serena Deeb
Rating: 2/5
Skye Blue vs Diamante
Whilst not an official trip down to Squash City, Diamante did not look as good as she usually does, paving the way for Skye Blue to really gain some positive momentum.
Winner: Skye Blue
Rating: 2/5
Nyla Rose & Marina Shafir vs Madison Rayne & Queen Aminata
Squash City!
Winner: Nyla Rose & Marina Shafir
Rating: 2/5
WWE NXT 2.0
Nikki A.S.H. & Doudrop vs Toxic Attraction
Am I pissed at this result? You bet I am! Toxic Attraction are quite simply one of the best things about NXT 2.0, and as a fully functional and successful team, they should have beaten Nikki A.S.H. and Doudrop with ease. Alas, this never happened, but at least Gigi Dolin in particular looked like an absolute star here.
Winner: Nikki A.S.H. & Doudrop
Rating: 3/5
Meiko Satomura vs Roxanne Perez
Both women worked hard here, but the overwhelming presence and skill of Meiko Satomura meant her win was not only inevitable, but it was also impressive.
Winner: Meiko Satomura
Rating: 3/5
AEW Dark
Marina Shafir vs Laynie Luck
Squash City!
Winner: Marina Shafir
Rating: 2/5
Julia Hart vs Missa Kate
Squash City!
Winner: Julia Hart
Rating: 2/5
Serena Deeb vs Sierra
Squash City!
Winner: Serena Deeb
Rating: 2/5
AEW Wednesday Night Dynamite
Toni Storm vs Penelope Ford
Squash City!
Winner: Toni Storm
Rating: 2/5
Impact Wrestling
Mickie James vs Raychell Rose
Squash City!
Winner: Mickie James
Rating: 2/5
Chelsea Green vs Taya Valkyrie
As much as I love Taya Valkyrie, she is not a strong enough wrestler to get anything of value out of Chelsea Green. Another week, another insipid performance from a truly 'green' Knockout's wrestler.
Winner: Chelsea Green
Rating: 1.5/5
WWE Friday Night SmackDown
Raquel Rodriguez & Aliyah vs Toxic Attraction
It appeears that Toxic Attraction have been promoted to the main roster. As The Simpsons' Halloween episodes claims, 'That's good!' However, the fact they lost without making much of an impact, well, 'That's Bad!'
Winner: Raquel Rodriguez & Aliyah
Rating: 2/5
Ronda Rousey vs Xia Li vs Natalya vs Sonya Deville vs Lacey Evans
The sheer lack of solid wrestlers within the SmackDown Women's division was laid bare here, and as much as Ronda Rousey has some value, she was unable to look good against multiple wrestlers who shit the bed on a weekly basis. I hate to be so negative about SmackDown's Women's division, but seriously, there is some terrible action on offer every week.
Winner: Ronda Rousey
Rating: 2/5
WWE NXT Level Up
Valentina Feroz vs Sol Ruca
Squash City!
Winner: Valentina Feroz
Rating: 2/5
AEW Rampage
Serena Deeb vs Madison Rayne
Squash City!
Winner: Serena Deeb
Rating: 2/5
MATCH OF THE WEEK:
Nikki A.S.H. & Doudrop vs Toxic Attraction
Toxic Attraction displayed the talent they need to make a success on the main roster.
WOMEN OF THE WEEK:
Raquel Rodriguez & Aliyah
Seriously, I am beginning to apprecaite this most random team.
