#2 Rhea Ripley vs Charlotte Flair (NXT Women's Championship)

A great opener for ight 2
A great opener for night 2

The main portion of WrestleMania Night 2 began with a 20-minute NXT Women's Championship match between Rhea Ripley and Charlotte Flair. The match was initially made primarily for the big stage, but it delivered perfectly at the Performance Center. Add this to Charlotte's epic collection of WrestleMania gems.

The match was physical, hard-hitting and intense, as Ripley brought her A-game as well. This was another great performance by her and even though she tapped out to the Queen, the future still looks bright for the former NXT Women's Champion. She fought valiantly on the 'Grandest Stage of Them All', more so than many other female wrestlers.

Charlotte targetted Ripley's knee for most of the match, with this strategy ultimately paying off as she won the NXT Women's Championship. There is tremendous potential in a long title run for her in NXT, with many huge opponents in waiting.

Maybe the scaling down of WrestleMania this year played a part in WWE's decision to switch the NXT Women's Title. Nevertheless, Rhea Ripley and Charlotte Flair partook in a tremendous match and the best women's one at WrestleMania.
