In the world of professional wrestling, tensions are running high as Becky Lynch has issued a stern warning to Rhea Ripley, the current Women’s World Champion, just before their highly anticipated title match at WWE WrestleMania XL. Known as The Eradicator, Ripley has maintained a strong grip on the championship since her victory over Charlotte Flair at WrestleMania 39. Lynch, having triumphed in the Women’s Elimination Chamber Match in February, has secured her opportunity to challenge Ripley, known as Mami, at the grand stage of WrestleMania. The rivalry took a personal turn on WWE RAW when Ripley invoked Lynch’s daughter to capture her attention.
The confrontation escalated during the WrestleMania Kickoff show in Philadelphia, where Lynch and Ripley came face-to-face. Lynch did not mince words, telling Ripley to savor her last moments as champion. The intensity of the encounter was palpable as Lynch declared, “And for the whole WWE Universe, this might be the biggest WrestleMania of all time. But for you, this is going to be the biggest upset of all time. Enjoy your last 24 hours as champ.”
Away from the ring, Lynch has been vocal about her disapproval of Ripley’s in-ring antics, specifically criticizing her for using the stinkface move on Nia Jax. Lynch expressed her concerns during an interview on The MMA Hour with Ariel Helwani, stating that such actions could be detrimental to the image of the women’s division. She emphasized the importance of not reducing the Women’s World Champion to mere physical attributes, fearing it could undermine the progress made in the business.
Lynch, often seen as the underdog, is heading into the title match with Ripley with the odds seemingly stacked against her. The WWE Universe is buzzing with anticipation to see if Lynch can defy expectations and clinch the Women’s World Championship. Meanwhile, a poll has been circulating among fans, asking whether they believe Rhea Ripley will retain her title at WrestleMania XL. The outcome of this match could have significant implications for the future of the women’s division in WWE.
