October 17th 2022. Paycom Center. Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Monday Night RAW. The Ladies of Damage CTRL came to continue domination. Cora Jade from NXT came to choose her Pick Your Poison opponent for Roxanne Perez. Unfortunately, Cora didn't interact with The Ladies so we didn't get a MomKota and Daughter reunion. This Friday on SmackDown, Dakota Kai and IYO SKY defend the WWE Women's Tag Titles against Shotzi and Raquel Rodriguez. They warmed up in a non-title match against RAW Women's Champion Bianca Belair and Candice LeRae.

Bayley would be present as the guest commentator for the match. Kevin Patrick was a tad nicer to her than evil Michael Cole. But KP could still be nicer to The Ladies. Baby steps. In the early going, Bianca and Candice dominated with an array of offense. Kai took control against Bianca and tagged in IYO with intentions of delivering a double suplex. Bianca slipped free and tagged in Candice. Belair and Candice would dropkick their opponents to the canvas. The EST followed by draping Candice over her shoulders and using her as a propeller against SKY and Kai.

IYO rolled to the floor but had no chance for respite as Bianca whipped Candice to the ropes where she struck SKY with a dropkick. Bianca lifted Dakota up in Glam Slam position and dropped her over the ropes to the floor. Candice would continue the assault, hitting both SKY and Kai with an apron springboard crossbody. But what doesn't destroy Damage CTRL only makes them deadlier. They would mount a brief comeback with Dakota luring Bianca into a springboard missile dropkick from IYO.

Dakota would try to prevent Bianca from making a tag by tugging at her braid which I might remind everyone is legal and therefore within the rules. Bianca would end up overpowering her and despite IYO trying to remove Candice from the apron, The Poison Pixie kicked her off and tagged into the match. Candice unloaded strikes on Dakota. IYO tried to make the save but instead Candice splashed both in the corner. She followed that using Dakota to propel herself up and deliver a senton to IYO. After that she shot back at Dakota with a superkick.

Now I know, besides that brief comeback, so far things were not looking great for The Ladies notably against Candice. It's understandable because they were sore from hard-fought wins at house shows over the weekend while Candice was able to relax at home. They would build momentum and the Poison would soon begin to be exterminated as IYO outsmarted Candice, grabbing her foot as she climbed the ropes. Kai would finish what would become a double team move, dropping Candice back-of-the-skull first to the turnbuckles.

Damage CTRL finally had control. Kai tagged in IYO who delivered springboard knees and a German suplex to Candice. IYO tagged Kai back in who smashed Candice's face with a running face wash. Kai went for a cover but only got a two. Candice managed to mount a comeback with an enzuigiri and made a tag to Bianca. Dakota stumbled to her corner and tagged in SKY who got pummeled by Bianca. Dakota tried to make a save only to receive a twirl-a-whirl gutbuster.

Candice climbed to the top rope and hit a missile dropick to SKY whom Bianca proceeded to drop with a brainbuster. The Poison Pixie went for a pin on SKY but Kai saved the match for her team. Bianca charged at Dakota who rocked her with the Scorpion Kick. Bianca tried to fight back with a Glam Slam but Dakota rolled through sending her to the apron. Before Bianca could mount offense, Dakota knocked her to the floor with an insane Kaio-Kick.

The Poison Pixie took advantage catching Kai with a codebreaker as she turned her attention to her. Bayley was overcome with emotion and grabbed a kendo stick from under the ring to swing at the air to release tension. Bianca decided to be like her friend Raquel and took her attention off the actual opponents, tackling Bayley over the commentary table. Bianca was out of wind, unable to re-enter the match. Yes, Bianca just abandoned her partner. But we all know that is no shocker because she fears Candice could be a future contender and doesn't want her racking up a favor.

Back in the ring, IYO delivered an air raid crash to Candice and tagged in Dakota. SKY and Kai lifted Candice up and dropped her on her back with a reverse powerbomb to remove any festering flight from her demon wings. Dakota proceeded to cover her former friend to score the pinfall victory for Damage CTRL. Bianca came to it and sulked with Candice as the Women's Tag Team Champions and Uncrowned RAW Women's Champion stood tall and proud.

Later on, Byron Saxton asked The Ladies what comes next. Bayley was tired of being asked what comes next, wanting the now to be more appreciated. That "now" is The Domination of Damage CTRL. Kai reminded Byron that IYO and her just defeated the RAW Women's Champion. It was noted Asuka and Alexa Bliss have been AWOL courtesy of Damage CTRL. Just like this Friday on SmackDown, Kai and SKY will do the same to Raquel and Shotzi. Bayley revealed next week on RAW she'll once again pin Bianca when they square off in a pivotal non-title match.

To finish their evening, Damage CTRL gave up some of their valuable time to appear on RAW Talk. Byron Saxton was going to repeat his earlier question instead of asking something new and different. An aggravated Bayley teased "top secret stuff" but left it to IYO to speak the truth that was on everyone's mind: "Don't ask stupid questions!" Damage CTRL were off. Byron got more than he deserved. The Ladies were gracious, offering their time and Saxton disrespected them. It's unfortunate Our Captain didn't introduce Saxton to the Kaio-Kick.
