WWE Women’s World Heavyweight Champion Rhea Ripley has expressed her interest in facing Becky Lynch in a dream match at WrestleMania 40.
Last month, Lynch interrupted ‘Mami,’ and vowed to script history by becoming the first two-time winner of the Women’s Royal Rumble match. Lynch also made her intentions know that when she wins, she would challenge Ripley at WrestleMania 40. However, the Women’s Royal Rumble match was ultimately won by Damage CTRL leader, Bayley.
Ever since that confrontation, fans have been clamoring to witness a clash between Rhea Ripley and Becky Lynch and they might get what they want.
Rhea Ripley to Becky Lynch: “Are you scared?”
Ahead of the 2024 Royal Rumble PLE, Denise Salcedo spoke with Rhea Ripley and asked her what she makes of a potential match against ‘The Man.’ It seems that ‘Mami’ loves the idea of the clash but also forewarned Becky Lynch. She said:
“I mean, obviously, it would mean the world, Becky’s one that I watched before I made it to WWE, and then even when I was in WWE. She’s one that I’ve paid close attention to, and she’s made so much history herself. I would love to step in the ring with her. But also, on the other hand, Becky, how does it feel stepping in the ring with Rhea Ripley? Are you excited? Are you nervous? Are you scared? Are you doubting yourself? Because maybe you should.”
Previously as well, ‘The Man’ let her thoughts known and said that she was sick and tired of Rhea Ripley’s prolonged championship reign.
We are closing in on WWE’s first Premium Live Event in Australia in over five years, Elimination Chamber: Perth on February 24. The show will emanate from The Optus Stadium. There have been reports that Ripley would defend her title inside the steel structure and the superstar herself addressed the possibility.
