#4 Rhea Ripley defeated Candice LeRae in under two minutes on WWE RAW
Over the past year, Rhea Ripley has proved time and time again why she is the Alpha female of WWE. The Judgment Day star has not lost a singles match since last May and is currently amid one of the most dominant title reigns in recent history.
Candice LeRae stepped up to The Nightmare on last night's RAW. However, she also met the same fate as others since Rhea Ripley managed to defeat her in under two minutes.
Following the match, fans expressed their disappointment with the company's booking of Candice LeRae since she returned to the promotion.

Seth Rollins has lived up to his promise of being a fighting world champion as The Visionary has defended his World Heavyweight Championship multiple times in recent months.
Following SummerSlam 2023, he has been involved in a feud with Shinsuke Nakamura, and things took a personal turn on this week's RAW. The King of Strong Style discussed Rollins' injury and family during a pre-taped promo. The duo will get a chance to settle their differences inside the squared circle at Payback, which will take place next month.
Rollins also confirmed his back injury on the red brand, noting that he does not know how long he can continue to compete on this level.

#1 Braun Strowman and Raquel Rodriguez are seemingly no longer together
Raquel Rodriguez and Braun Strowman have seemingly ended their relationship. The two wrestlers recently unfollowed each other on social media and also deleted pictures with each other.
