A shocking incident occurred on the latest episode of WWE RAW, as Raquel Rodriguez launched a brutal attack on Women’s World Champion Stephanie Vaquer. Vaquer, who was already dealing with an injury, was ambushed by Rodriguez, who targeted her damaged ankle. The assault prompted General Manager Adam Pearce to intervene, and he attempted to prevent Rodriguez from using a steel chair to further injure Vaquer’s leg.
The attack has put Vaquer’s championship status in doubt, and Rodriguez is likely to face severe consequences. Given the severity of the incident, it is possible that Rodriguez could be suspended for a period of time, potentially ranging from two to four weeks. This would not only punish Rodriguez but also prevent her from competing for the title in the near future.
Alternatively, Rodriguez could face a significant fine, as threatened by Pearce during the incident. The General Manager has a history of imposing fines on wrestlers who engage in unprofessional conduct, and a large fine could be used to emphasize the seriousness of Rodriguez’s actions.
Another possible consequence for Rodriguez is the loss of her position as the number one contender for the Women’s World Championship. By attacking Vaquer while she was injured, Rodriguez may have forfeited her right to a title shot, which could force her to work her way back up the rankings.
If Vaquer’s injury is severe enough to force her to relinquish the title, a tournament or multi-woman match may be held to determine a new champion. In this scenario, the most severe punishment for Rodriguez would be to exclude her from competing for the vacant title. This would be a significant consequence, as Rodriguez would be denied the opportunity to win the title she covets, despite being the one responsible for Vaquer’s potential vacancy.
The incident has significant implications for the WWE women’s division, and the consequences for Rodriguez will likely have a major impact on the title scene. As the situation develops, it remains to be seen how WWE will respond to Rodriguez’s actions and what the future holds for the Women’s World Championship.
