We haven’t had that match, which is unbelievable to think that Nia Jax and I haven’t gone one-on-one in a WWE ring, but it’s true. Then, there is the next stop, which is taking the title off Rhea Ripley. That title, when I hold that title, that title is the main event of every show. Her title has been seen in many main events, but not because she’s been defending it, no, just because she’s being the accompaniment to the main event. I can’t have that. I’m sick of that. I’m sick of that and I’m going to take that title back off her, preferably at WrestleMania,” she said.
Nevertheless, both Lynch and Ripley are scheduled for a huge match on the Day 1 edition of RAW. Becky Lynch is set to face Nia Jax in a grudge match, while Rhea Ripley will be putting her title on the line against Ivy Nile.
