“In Rhea Ripley and Charlotte Flair, you have two formidable opponents. So for myself, I'm going into this match as the underdog. I am the RAW Women’s Champion but I’m going in as the underdog. But I have tricks up my sleeve. I am almost a superhero. So for me, I know that it's not about the size of the dog in the fight but the size of the fight in the dog. And I know that I might not be the most powerful competitor physically speaking, but I've got the biggest heart and I'll do everything I can to leave SummerSlam as the RAW women's champion,” Nicki said.
