Rhea Ripley to Extend Championship Match Streak at WrestleMania 41 – Rhea Ripley will continue her streak of competing in title matches at every WrestleMania she’s appeared in, as she challenges IYO SKY and Bianca Belair for the WWE Women’s World Championship at WrestleMania 41.
Rhea Ripley will once again compete for championship gold at WrestleMania, marking a continuation of her unique streak within WWE. At WrestleMania 41, Ripley will challenge reigning Women’s World Champion IYO SKY and Bianca Belair in a triple threat match, officially extending her record of participating in a title bout at every WrestleMania she has appeared in.
This year’s bout comes after Ripley was added to the previously announced SKY vs. Belair match on the April 7 episode of RAW. Her addition followed her loss of the Women’s World Title to SKY on an earlier March episode of RAW. With her spot now secured, Ripley’s streak of championship matches at WWE’s biggest annual event will continue for the sixth consecutive year.
Ripley made her WrestleMania debut at WrestleMania 36 in 2020, where she defended the NXT Women’s Championship but lost to Charlotte Flair. She then competed in Women’s Tag Team Championship Fatal Four Way matches at both WrestleMania 37 in 2021 and WrestleMania 38 in 2022, although she did not walk away with titles on either occasion.
The tide shifted at WrestleMania 39 in 2023 when Ripley defeated Flair to win the SmackDown Women’s Championship. She followed up that victory by successfully defending the Women’s World Championship against Becky Lynch at WrestleMania 40 in 2024.
Now, Ripley heads into WrestleMania 41 looking to reclaim championship status once again—and further cement her legacy as a consistent fixture in the biggest title matches on the grandest stage of them all.
