"I'm going to have to go with…" - Rhea Ripley picks potential opponent for major WWE event
Rhea Ripley is arguably the most popular female star on WWE RAW. The former Women’s World Champion recently picked her potential opponent for next WrestleMania.
WWE is preparing for WrestleMania 41, set to take place in Las Vegas, Nevada over two nights. Fans could see Rhea Ripley compete in a marquee match on one of the nights.
Many big stars could potentially face Mami at The Grandest Stage of Them All next year. She was recently at a Fanatics live event joining UpUpDownDown where she was asked about potential opponents for WrestleMania. The fans in attendance gave her many opponents to choose from, but she picked The EST of WWE, Bianca Belair.
"I've been seeing a lot of people predicting things on X," Rhea said. "I have seen IYO [SKY], I have seen Liv [Morgan] which I don't really want that to continue but whatever, and then there's also Bianca [Belair] who's someone that I've wanted to face at WrestleMania for a very long time so I'm going to have to go with Bianca."

Bianca Belair and Rhea Ripley have come face to face on many occasions in WWE. They have also teamed up for a few matches and spent some time in NXT together. The two powerhouses could put on a grand show if they're given enough time to perform.
It would be great to see them go head-to-head at The Show of Shows. However, fans could see Belair face her current tag team partner Jade Cargill at WrestleMania 41 instead. It looks like the creative team will build towards that rivalry soon.
Rhea Ripley still has to finish her story with Liv Morgan
The rivalry between Rhea Ripley and Liv Morgan has been a storied one on RAW. The two superstars have faced each other on several occasions.
The latest match between them saw Dominik Mysterio hang high up in a Shark Cage while they competed for the Women’s World Championship at Bad Blood. However, a surprise attack from a returning Raquel Rodriguez ended the match in a disqualification, with Morgan holding on to her title.
Liv Morgan and Rhea Ripley will likely face off again soon and fans can expect Mami to take back the title. It would be good to see her walk into another WrestleMania with the top women’s title around her waist as she has done well to elevate the women’s roster in Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch's absence.
