In a significant development during the WWE Draft 2024, one of the wrestling juggernaut’s most iconic factions, Damage CTRL, makes its way to Monday Night RAW, marking a pivotal shift in the terrain of the red brand.
Stephanie McMahon’s announcement reverberated throughout the WWE universe, signaling a major coup for RAW as Damage CTRL, renowned as one of the all-time great Women’s factions, makes its home on the red brand.
As the first round of Draft Picks unfolded, McMahon’s return to the spotlight since WrestleMania 40 heightened the anticipation. While most selections maintained their brand allegiance, the relocation of Damage CTRL sparked excitement among fans and insiders alike.
IYO SKY, Dakota Kai, Asuka, and Kairi Sane now find themselves on RAW, injecting a fresh dose of talent into the women’s division. Meanwhile, Imperium, Jade Cargill, and Kevin Owens remain anchored in their respective brands, maintaining the status quo.
Damage CTRL’s arrival on RAW signifies more than just a roster change; it represents a strategic move to bolster an underwhelming division. With their track record as pioneers in women’s wrestling, the addition of these four formidable stars promises to boost the competitive terrain on RAW.
While IYO’s recent loss to Bayley may divert her focus from the WWE Women’s Championship, Damage CTRL’s presence brings a renewed sense of excitement and competition to RAW’s women’s division.
In recent years, SmackDown has enjoyed a dominance in women’s talent, boasting names like Charlotte Flair, Bianca Belair, Asuka, and Bayley. However, with this influx of talent, RAW aims to level the playing field.
As the draft unfolds, fans eagerly anticipate how the balance of power will shift between the two women’s divisions, setting the stage for thrilling rivalries and unforgettable showdowns in the days to come.
