One match that WWE fans do not often see is Rhea Ripley vs. Bianca Belair. While they have worked several matches with each other, they’ve only had two singles matches against each other.
According to CageMatch.net, they first worked in October 2019 on an episode of NXT TV before having a February 2020 match at WWE NXT TakeOver: Portland. Ripley has won both of their singles matches, with the TakeOver bout seeing Ripley retain the NXT Women’s Title in just under 14 minutes.
While speaking with Bill Apter of SportsKeeda, Ripley was asked to give her thoughts on Belair.
Ripley stated, “Bianca, look, I love Bianca. I have no beef with Bianca. I think she’s absolutely incredible at what she does. There’s that competitor side of me that wants to step in the ring with her. I want to see who’s going to come out victorious. I want to see who’s stronger. Who’s more agile. She might have me in the agile aspect, but stronger. I don’t know. We’re a little bit close. I can’t wait for that day. I feel like it can’t be wasted. I feel like that is such a high-key match that people want to see, I want to do, and she wants to do. The two faces of WWE 2K24. I think that if we were to step in the ring together again, I think it would have to be WrestleMania-worthy.”
