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
Dana Brooke vs Nikki Cross
Awful! But at least we are now done with the WWE 24/7 Championship.
Winner: Nikki Cross
Rating: 1/5
AEW Dark: Elevation
Abadon vs Amy Rose
Squash City!
Winner: Abadon
Rating: 2/5
Athena vs Abby Jane
Squash City!
Winner: Athena
Rating: 2/5
Tay Melo vs Trish Adora
Squash City!
Winner: Tay Melo
Rating: 2/5
WWE NXT 2.0
Elektra Lopez vs Sol Ruca
Squash City!
Winner: Elektra Lopez
Rating: 2/5
Kayden Carter & Katana Chance vs Zoey Stark & Nikkita Lyons
A very mediocre and uninspiring defence of the NXT Women's Tag Team Championship. Kayden Carter and Katana Chance are just not exciting as champions in the same way Toxic Attraction are.
Winner: Kayden Carter & Katana Chance
Rating: 2.5/5
AEW Dark
Ashley D'Amboise vs Kayla Rossi
Squash City!
Winner: Kayla Rossi
Rating: 2/5
Anna Jay vs Sio Nieves
Squash City!
Winner: Anna Jay
Rating: 2/5
Athena vs Diamante
This was arguably a fun little romp, with both women working harder than the usual AEW Dark performance.
Winner: Athena
Rating: 3/5
Toni Storm & Hikaru Shida vs Emi Sakura & Mei Suruga
Two strong AEW Dark matches in one night?!? What is this sorcery?!? This was a fantastic bout, with all four women displaying the strength and tenacity required to keep the women's division chugging along nicely.
Winner: Toni Storm & Hikaru Shida
Rating: 3.5/5
AEW Wednesday Night Dynamite
Jamie Hayter vs Skye Blue
Squash City!
Winner: Jamie Hayter
Rating: 2/5
Impact Wrestling
Mickie James vs Chelsea Green
Chelse Green is back to being as dull as dishwater. Eurgh!
Winner: Mickie James
Rating: 1/5
Jordynne Grace vs Gisele Shaw
As a lengthy match, I thoroughly enjoyed Jordynne Grace smashing it up with Gisele Shaw. Both women worked hard, but they had a vigour and confidence to them that has been sorely missing on Impact Wrestling recently.
Winner: Jordynne Grace
Rating: 3.5/5
WWE Friday Night SmackDown
Shotzi vs Liv Morgan vs Lacey Evans vs Xia Li vs Sonya Deville vs Raquel Rodriguez
Another poor example of the complete lack of depth held within SmackDown's women's division.
Winner: Shotzi
Rating: 1.5/5
WWE NXT Level Up
Ivy Nile & Tatum Paxley vs Lash Legend & Jakara Jackson
Squash City!
Winner: Ivy Nile & Tatum Paxley
Rating: 2/5
AEW Rampage
Nyla Rose vs Kayla Sparks
Squash City!
Winner: Nyla Rose
Rating: 2/5
MATCH OF THE WEEK:
Jordynne Grace vs Gisele Shaw
A fantastic return to form for the Knockout's division.
WOMEN OF THE WEEK:
Britt Baker
Saraya is supposed to be a face. Britt Baker is supposed to be the heel. Tell that to AEW fans! Baker is quite simply untouchable.
