The last few days have been eventful to say the least. Bianca Belair punched her ticket to WrestleMania 41 when she won the women’s Elimination Chamber match on Saturday, and Rhea Ripley went on to defend the WWE Women’s World Championship against Iyo Sky on the following episode of Raw.
Bianca Belair sat at ringside for the big title bout, and Rhea Ripley ended up getting distracted as she argued with Bianca Belair near the end of the match. Ripley continued to focus on Belair as she tried to hit Iyo Sky with Riptide off the ropes, which turned out to be a huge mistake as Iyo took advantage of the distraction when she hit a hurricanrana followed by a moonsault to win the WWE Women’s World Championship.
The big title change left fans with a lot of questions regarding what Rhea Ripley’s role will be at WrestleMania 41. WrestleVotes recently shared an update on Rhea Ripley’s status on Backstage Pass Q&A, and it was noted that The Eradicator will likely be added to the WWE Women’s World Championship match.
“The anticipation is that match turns into a three-way at WrestleMania. That’s from what I heard today. Fully expecting that match to turn into a Triple Threat by the time we get to Las Vegas was what I was told. So if the spice isn’t there between Bianca and IYO don’t worry, it’s gonna shape out to be a little bit different.”
It’s not clear how Rhea Ripley will be added to the match, but it looks like the former champion will be getting another shot at the title on the Grandest Stage of Them All.
