Exciting Matches Announced for WWE SummerSlam 2025
WWE SummerSlam 2025 Match Highlights
During the latest episode of Monday Night Raw, several championship bouts for WWE SummerSlam 2025 were unveiled. The show commenced with a significant announcement from the general manager regarding a triple threat match for the prestigious Women’s Championship, featuring the three competitors who headlined the recent all-women premium live event in Atlanta, Evolution.
Naomi, the newly crowned Women’s World Champion, opened this week’s Raw from the Legacy Arena in Birmingham, Alabama. She expressed her indifference to the audience's cheers and addressed rumors about potentially cashing in her Women’s Money in the Bank contract on Tiffany Stratton, stating she would instead be part of Raw leading up to WWE SummerSlam 2025.
Following this, Naomi issued a challenge to her former tag team partner, Bianca Belair, asserting that she no longer needed a partner or sidekick. Just then, Rhea Ripley’s entrance music played, and she stormed into the ring, visibly upset. Ripley expressed her desire to defeat IYO SKY and reclaim the Women’s World Championship before WWE SummerSlam 2025, a title she feels Naomi has hindered her from obtaining.

Raw General Manager Adam Pearce made an appearance, welcoming Naomi to the red brand and commending Ripley and SKY for their performance at Evolution. He subsequently announced that Naomi, Ripley, and SKY would compete in a Triple Threat Match for the Women’s World Championship at WWE SummerSlam 2025.
