Rhea Ripley Wins Wild Street Fight At WWE Night Of Champions

On the WWE Night of Champions kickoff show, Rhea Ripley said she was looking to get her WWE World Heavyweight Championship "baby" back. After her Night of Champions match, she's in the driver seat to do just that.

Ripley defeated Raquel Rodriguez in what was a wild street fight on Saturday afternoon at WWE Night of Champions in Saudi Arabia. Both women were decked out in black gear and utilized the street fight stipulation to the max throughout the bout.

Raquel Rodriguez put Ripley through an announce table on the outside of the ring and Ripley responded by whipping Rodriguez with her belt. Rodriguez's fellow Judgment Day faction-mate, Roxanne Perez, tried to interfere and help Rodriguez win, but Ripley foiled those plans.
