Trish Stratus In Money In the Bank Qualifier; Matt Riddle And Rhea Ripley Bouts Set For 6/19 WWE Raw

Matt Riddle, Rhea Ripley, and WWE Hall of Famer Trish Stratus will all be in singles action on the June 19 episode of Monday Night Raw.

Trish Stratus is ready to compete in her first singles match on Monday Night Raw since facing Mickie James on September 11, 2006, as she looks to qualify for her first-ever Money in the Bank Ladder Match. To qualify for the match, she will need to topple Raquel Rodriguez.

Raquel is now solely focused on singles action after she was forced to vacate the WWE Women's Tag Team Championship due to an injury suffered by Liv Morgan.

Rhea Ripley, newly crowned Women's World Champion, will also compete in a WWE Night of Champions rematch against Natalya. Their previous match lasted less than two minutes. "Mami" Ripley may look to make another statement on June 19.

Rounding out the card, Matt Riddle's issues with Imperium will continue as he takes on Ludwig Kaiser in singles action.

Trish Stratus vs. Raquel Rodriguez in a Money in the Bank Qualifying Match

WWE Hall of Famer Trish Stratus looks to punch her ticket to her first-ever Money in the Bank Ladder Match by taking on Raquel Rodriguez Monday on Raw.

Since betraying Becky Lynch and Lita a couple of months ago, Stratus has been on a mission to gain respect as a legend and will look to cement it by defeating Rodriguez en route to becoming Ms. Money in the Bank, July 1 in London.

Stratus has also aligned with the bruising Zoey Stark who has already qualified for the match, making them one of the most dangerous duos on the red brand.

Rodriguez, meanwhile, is attempting to regain some momentum after having to relinquish the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championships due to Liv Morgan’s injury.

Rhea Ripley to battle Natalya in Night of Champions rematch

This Monday, Women's World Heavyweight Champion Rhea Ripley will battle against Natalya. The rivals met at WWE Night of Champions in May, with Ripley retaining her title in dominant fashion. Does the third-generation Superstar have what it takes to score a high-stakes victory over The Eradicator of The Judgment Day?

Don't miss all the action of Raw, this Monday at 8/7 C on USA.


Matt Riddle seeks to snap Ludwig Kaiser’s leg as well

Since arriving on Raw, Intercontinental Champion Gunther and his Imperium cohort have been ruling the roost. That is until they ran into the Original Bro, Matt Riddle.

Riddle has seemingly gotten the nerve of Gunther as The Ring General prevented The Original Bro from winning a Battle Royal that would have gifted Riddle a chance at the Intercontinental Title at WWE Night of Champions.

Since then, Riddle has been on the warpath with Imperium, attacking Giovanni Vinci backstage and snapping the Imperium member’s leg.

Now, The Original Bro looks to do the same to Vinci’s teammate Ludwig Kaiser, hoping to catch the eye of The Ring General.

Can Riddle do to Kaiser what he did to Vinci? Find out on Raw at 8/7 C on USA!

All of this, plus Seth Rollins will defend the World Heavyweight Championship in the first of two consecutive defenses he will make in the third week of June, and more.
