Multiple championship matches for WWE SummerSlam 2025 have been announced on this week’s episode of Monday Night Raw on Netflix. In the opening segment of the show, the general manager made a huge announcement about a triple threat match for the top Women’s Championship of the red brand featuring the trio that closed out this weekend’s all-women premium live event in Atlanta, Evolution.
The brand new Women’s World Champion Naomi kicked off this week’s Raw from the Legacy Arena in Birmingham, Alabama. She told the crowd she didn’t care, to the cheers from the audience, and addressed the speculation that she’d cash in her Women’s Money in the Bank contract on Tiffany Stratton. She was happy to ruin everyone’s expectations and said she would be part of Raw instead of SmackDown ahead of WWE SummerSlam 2025.
Naomi then challenged former tag team partner Bianca Belair to look at her, claiming that she’s no longer around as a partner or sidekick. As she sent a warning to the WWE Raw locker room, Rhea Ripley’s music hit, and she stormed to the ring in a foul mood. Ripley said that she wanted to defeat IYO SKY and reclaim the Women’s World Championship before WWE SummerSlam 2025, which she isn’t, thanks to Naomi.

That drags Naomi onto her hit list. Then IYO SKY arrived at the ring, agreeing with Ripley’s frustrations before getting into an argument with both Ripley and Naomi. Raw General Manager Adam Pearce came out, welcoming Naomi to the red brand. After praising Ripley and SKY for delivering in their match at Evolution, he then announced that Naomi, Ripley, and SKY would face off in a Triple Threat Match for the Women’s World Championship at WWE SummerSlam 2025.

She won the contract last month in Los Angeles in the titular PLE at the Intuit Dome.
