Eva Marie returns to Raw…with Piper Niven

As expected, Eva Marie did not come alone to Monday Night Raw and brought former NXT UK star Piper Niven along with her.

Marie was supposed to take on Naomi in her first WWE match in four years but it was Niven who took the match instead of her and squashed Naomi in a quick match.

Despite having appeared numerous times on NXT UK and even participating in the Mae Young Classic tournament, Niven was never mentioned by name and when the ring announcer was supposed to announce the winner, there was no name given. Eva Marie took the mic and announced herself as the winner of the match.

An excited Piper then hugged Eva at ringside but Eva looked like she didn’t want to be any part of the celebration.

Before returning to the back, Eva blew a kiss at the announce table, with Corey Graves sounding happy!
