Just one night after she won the Women’s Money in the Bank Ladder Match, Nikki A.S.H. successfully cashed in her briefcase to win the WWE RAW Women’s Championship.
On Monday night, A.S.H. capitalized when Rhea Ripley beat “The Queen” down following the conclusion of their match for the title. Flair got herself disqualified to retain the title against Ripley, but the former champion got the last laugh with her post-match assault.

After she received a rematch against Flair on WWE RAW, it was clear from the start that Ripley was having a hard time fighting on one good leg. Flair soon noticed this disadvantage and targeted Ripley’s wounded limb. To her credit, Ripley continued to stay in the fight, and she almost won the bout after she hit a massive Riptide for a near fall.
After she nearly lost the contest, Flair had had enough, and she quickly grabbed her title rolled out of the ring, and tried to leave the arena. Ripley ran out of the ring to try and catch her, but Flair hit her with her title, forcing the referee to end the match via disqualification. As a result, Flair lost the match, but she retained the title.
Despite the loss, Ripley wasn’t done, and she and Flair began brawling outside of the ring before Ripley ended the brawl by hitting Flair with a Riptide and throwing her back into the ring. A.S.H. chose this moment to come running out, briefcase in hand, and promptly cash in her Money in the Bank contract. Climbing to the top rope, A.S.H. hit a diving crossbody onto Flair for the three count to win the title.
