Backstage Update On Why Emma Was Added To Raw Women’s Title Match At No Mercy

Emma and Nia Jax teamed up to defeat the team of Alexa Bliss and Sasha Banks on this week’s episode of Monday Night Raw. As a stipulation that was put in place by Raw GM Kurt Angle, with Jax and Emma winning the match, they will be added to the Raw Women’s Title match at No Mercy. Bliss will now defend the title against Banks, Emma, and Jax in a Fatal 4-Way match at the event.

Dave Meltzer speculated on Wrestling Observer Radio as to why WWE changed plans for the match. He thinks that Emma was placed in the match to take the loss. Melzer noted that WWE doesn’t want Bliss, Jax, or Banks taking the loss in the match. Thus, Emma will probably take the fall.
