WWE Superstar Rhea Ripley is the Women’s World Champion once again. The Eradicator defeated her nemesis, Liv Morgan, to win the title she never lost, ending the latter’s revenge tour on RAW’s Netflix debut.
Now, Mami will be on the Road to WrestleMania 41 as a defending champ. Here are four ways the Stamford-based promotion can book her in a match in Las Vegas.
#4 Rhea Ripley could face her WrestleMania XL opponent once again
After being a free agent since June 1, 2024, according to a Fightful Select report, Becky Lynch has finally re-signed with WWE. In her final few days with the company, The Man held the Women’s World Championship before losing it to Liv Morgan and failing to reclaim it in a steel cage match.

Now, The Man will be looking forward to winning the title again and having her sights set on Rhea Ripley. Becky has already lost a title match against The Eradicator at WrestleMania XL after earning her shot at Mami’s home country, Australia, by winning the Women’s Elimination Chamber match.
The company could again make the two superstars feud at the upcoming 2025 Royal Rumble. Thus, there’s a chance that Mami and The Man will get into consecutive WrestleMania matches for the Women’s World Championship.
#3 Mami could get a chance to settle her score with Dominik Mysterio
Rhea Ripley was in an on-screen relationship with Dominik Mysterio before he backstabbed her and chose to side with Liv Morgan at the 2024 SummerSlam. Since then, Mami has unleashed herself on Dirty Dom several times. The latest instance of this came right after she dethroned Morgan and low-blowed Dom before slamming him down with a Riptide.
The Eradicator had also given Mysterio a lot of punishment when she teamed up with Damian Priest to defeat Dom and Liv Morgan in a mixed tag team match at Bash in Berlin. WWE could use this bitter discourse between Dom and Mami and pit them together in an intergender match at WrestleMania 41. This would not just entertain fans but would also protect Ripley’s title reign.
#2 Rhea Ripley could turn heel to join The Judgment Day again
Liv Morgan’s Revenge Tour was focused on taking everything Rhea Ripley had and making it her own. Now that The Miracle Kid has been dethroned, Mami would look forward to reclaiming everything she lost because of her. While she has started her journey with the Women’s World Championship, she could now choose to take back The Judgment Day.
Moreover, there is a chance that The Eradicator could turn heel again. WWE recently hinted at this in a segment shot in the clubhouse of the purple and black faction. As Judgment Day members were having a discussion, Mami’s chains and a skull she had posed with for a picture were visible in the background.
Thus, there is a chance that Rhea Ripley could go back to her old faction and probably lead it this time.
#1 A five-time WWE Women’s Champion could dethrone Mami at WrestleMania 41
WWE Superstar Alexa Bliss has been away from the company for almost two years now. However, The Wyatt Sicks recently released a cryptic message saying that they have opened a door that would allow her to return to the Stamford-based promotion.
The Royal Rumble has always been WWE’s machinery to bring back superstars on a hiatus. Hence, Bliss could return and win the upcoming 30-woman contest to earn a title shot against Rhea Ripley. Moreover, given her star power, the company could also make Lexi dethrone Mami and extend her Women’s Championship count to six.
It would be interesting to see what lies ahead on the Road to WrestleMania for Rhea Ripley.
