- Below is video of RAW Women’s Champion Alexa Bliss and Braun Strowman talking to Renee Young in the ring after their Mixed Match Challenge win over Sami Zayn and Becky Lynch last night. Braun says this was a team effort as they get along professionally and personally. Braun says Bliss is kind of cute, which makes her smile and starts a “get these hands” chant. Bliss says Braun is also kind of cute and one thing she can say - they’re going all the way, which gets another pop. All the way… to a victory in the Mixed Match Challenge, Bliss adds. Braun and Bliss will now face the winner of next week’s match, which will feature Goldust and new partner Mandy Rose vs. Naomi and SmackDown Tag Team Champion Jimmy Uso.
