SmackDown Women’s Champion Rhea Ripley vs. Natalya​

SmackDown Women’s Champion Rhea Ripley is set to go to war with Natalya at WWE Night of Champions.

Ripley was already a fierce competitor when she joined the The Judgment Day. Since then, however, she has entered a whole new level, both individually and collectively with the dark faction, to become the scourge of the women's locker room. She ripped through the competition to emerge victorious in the Royal Rumble, claimed the SmackDown Women’s Championship with a hard-fought win over Charlotte Flair at WrestleMania, and now stands as a seemingly insurmountable force of nature.

When she chose to make a ruthless statement by attacking Dana Brooke after she already defeated her, though, she drew the ire of The Queen of Harts. Making it clear she was not intimidated by the dominant titleholder, Natalya stood toe-to-toe with her until a smiling Ripley decided to leave.

Natalya was forged in the infamous family dungeon in Calgary and is a two-time Women's Champion as well as a WWE Women's Tag Team Champion, and a showdown between The Queen of Harts and The Eradicator will be a must-see clash.

Becky Lynch vs. Trish Stratus​

At WWE Night of Champions, Becky Lynch will battle WWE Hall of Famer Trish Stratus in a highly-anticipated dream match.

In a moment that electrified the WWE Universe in February, Trish Stratus suddenly emerged to help her fellow WWE Hall of Famer Lita and Lynch even the odds with Damage CTRL and paved the way for them to win the WWE Women’s Tag Team Titles.

The trio then joined forces to defeat Bayley, Dakota Kai and IYO SKY at WrestleMania. So it came as no surprise when Trish Stratus stepped in to team with The Man in her title defense against Raquel Rodriguez and Liv Morgan after Lita was mysteriously attacked backstage. Moments after she was pinned to lose the gold, however, Trish Stratus suddenly betrayed Lynch when she launched a surprise attack and left her down and out in the ring.

Big Time Becks was not seen for weeks following that attack, and Trish Stratus took every opportunity to mock her in her absence. That was until May 8 when Becky surprised the WWE Hall of Famer on Raw and treated her to the Bexploder. The following week, a determined Lynch challenged her decorated adversary to a showdown at WWE Night of Champions. Following a war of words on the final episode of the red brand before the PLE, that match was made official.​

I love Nattie, but why is she in this match like you have so many other options.

 

[Dale]

I mean I don't like Nattie but she's the best option they have for a stop gap match.

 

[Sabretooth]

I assume they only have Nattie to make this a throwaway match

 

[Butters]

why does that picture of nattie look like kenneth copeland?

 

[JakeYourBooty]

It’s Nattie because she’s probably a familiar face to the Saudi audience, at least that’s what I’m thinking.
