The thirty-sixth Royal Rumble was in full succession from Texas the world over on January twenty eighth starting with a assured efficiency from reigning Raw Women’s Champion Bianca Belair towards a fresh9 Alexa Bliss who has shaken the ring rust off since her most up-to-date return with this feud.
Belair was in full Face mode, shoulder block after shoulder block was her profitable system early on towards Bliss who determined to concentrate on leaving Belair breathless within the ring by specializing in a wide range of submission makes an attempt. Belair had the gang within the palm of her hand getting the viewers to rely the blows she delivered onto a dazed Bliss within the nook. At this level in her profession Belair doesn’t must do a lot so she was in a position to carry out her primary moveset and nonetheless get love from the gang. I don’t know if Bliss was alleged to have her knees up through the first gymnastic flip into physique slam that she suffered, however Belair’s stamina to ship that transfer once more in seconds was nothing in need of fascinating.
Bliss wasn’t simply sitting round and getting mollywopped although. Bliss administered an incredible torture rack on the ground and may now add herself to the record of one of many few wrestler’s to dodge Belair’s braid ! Belair’s rooster wing lock in the direction of the top was as awkward as her missile dropkick spot, however the champ had time to experiment as a result of when it was time to wrap, Belair’s tried and true Okay.O.D. was far superior to Bliss’ Sister Abigail try, scoring Belair her first premium win for 2023 !
A combating champion, even when Belair didn’t push the envelope with this matchup the feud between Belair and Bliss had sufficient moments full of colour and brutality constructing as much as this clear end that may present sufficient playback worth to maintain wrestling heads hitting the rewind button for a while. At this level Bliss must be shrunk again right down to the midcard as there’s not a motive any longer to increase this feud. The greatest components already occurred on Raw and the WWE Universe is able to see a brand new challenger for Belair, to see if she breaks when taken to her restrict or continues to surpass the bar and set the protagonist position in WWE to new heights, that these earlier than her trusted because the face of WWE simply couldn’t handle as a result of they merely bought boring. But for Belair, even when she is lazily scripted to do the identical strikes a number of instances in a row in a single match, being boring for her is simply an impossibility.
Score : 3/5
