WrestleMania 41 Women's World Championship Match Confirmed On WWE Raw

Warning: This article contains SPOILERS for WWE Raw (March 3, 2025)Iyo Sky shockingly defeated Rhea Ripley to win the Women's World Championship on WWE Raw in Buffalo on Monday Night. WWE's "The Genius of The Sky" will now take on Bianca Belair at WrestleMania 41 in Las Vegas in April.

The final moments of the match saw Ripley get distracted by Belair, who was seated at the ringside commentary table. After a shoving match between the two, Ripley slid back into the ring and hoisted Sky up to attempt a Riptide from the second turnbuckle. She took the time to look over at Belair and declare she'd "see her at WrestleMania," but Sky used the opening to send Ripley crashing to the floor with a Hurricanrana. She then delivered an Over The Moonsault to secure the win and become world champion for the second time in her career.

Bianca Belair Comments On The Jade Cargill-Naomi Situation

"The EST" Addressed The Elephant In The Room

Earlier in the evening, Belair addressed the ongoing situation regarding Jade Cargill and Naomi. Belair held the WWE Women's Tag Team Championships with Belair last November, only for Cargill to get attacked backstage on the Nov. 8 episode of WWE SmackDown and forced out of action for several months. Belair chose Naomi to replace Cargill and continue the title reign, which lasted up until the Feb. 24 episode of WWE Raw. Cargill then returned at the Elimination Chamber event, only to viciously attack Naomi while Belair was locked inside one of the Chamber pods. The attack seemingly confirmed Naomi was the one behind Cargill's injury, but many WWE fans are still arguing that Belair might have been a culprit as well.

Belair refrained from giving her two cents on what happened, saying she hadn't spoken with either woman. She said she felt "guilty" over what happened, then quickly pivoted to mentioning her winning the Women's Elimination Chamber match on Saturday.

But there's still plenty of time between now and WrestleMania for more matches to be announced. Ripley could easily be added to the Sky/Belair matchup, a triple threat grudge match between Seth Rollins, CM Punk and Roman Reigns has been rumored for over a month and there's bound to be at least a couple of midcard championship matches added into the mix.
