Women’s World title match at WWE WrestleMania 41 now a three-way
As expected, the Women’s World title match at WWE WrestleMania will indeed be a triple threat bout.
WWE Raw general manager Adam Pearce announced in Raw’s opening segment that IYO SKY will defend her Women’s World Championship at WrestleMania 41 against Bianca Belair and Rhea Ripley.
Belair earned the World title shot by winning the women’s Elimination Chamber match at the EC PLE in March, while Ripley forced her way into the title picture by simply declaring for the match.
A SKY vs. Ripley title match on last week’s Raw with Belair as guest referee was meant to settle the matter, but the bout ended in a no contest, so Pearce made the originally scheduled SKY vs. Belair match a triple threat also involving Ripley.
