Bianca Belair Eyes Dream Match Against Rhea Ripley at WrestleMania 41

TORONTO, Canada – Former WWE Women’s Champion Bianca Belair is one match away from realizing a long-held dream. On March 1, 2025, she competes in the Women’s Elimination Chamber match, where the winner will challenge Rhea Ripley for the Women’s World Championship at WrestleMania 41.

Belair, who has yet to compete against Ripley in a one-on-one match, expressed her excitement about the possibility of facing Ripley if she wins the Elimination Chamber. “It’s definitely a dream match of mine—it always has been,” Belair said. “Our careers have been somewhat parallel in a way.”

The significance of winning the Elimination Chamber is not lost on her. Belair believes that a victory would validate her years of hard work. “It would mean everything for me to be able to win the Elimination Chamber match,” she said. “I am at the top—I am the face of this company.”

She continued, elaborating on their shared journey in the wrestling world. “I love the fact that we’ve never crossed paths and haven’t had a match. It builds anticipation even more,” Belair noted. “The fact that we haven’t been able to do that yet means maybe we’ll finally get to do it at WrestleMania.”

The Elimination Chamber premium live event marks a pivotal moment in WWE’s calendar, leading up to WrestleMania 41, which will be held at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas on April 19-20, 2025. The event will also feature a Men’s Elimination Chamber match, where the winner faces Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes.

Beyond the Elimination Chamber matches, fans can expect a powerhouse card with notable bouts such as Trish Stratus and Tiffany Stratton against Nia Jax and Candice LeRae, an Unsanctioned Match between Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn, and an appearance by The Rock.

WWE Executive Triple H has built excitement around the event, labeling it an ‘industry-changing weekend.’ Fans speculate on the significance of his statements in the context of upcoming matches and potential surprises.

As the event unfolds, Belair remains focused on her goal and the chance to elevate her career. With the stakes high at Elimination Chamber, all eyes will be on her as she battles for a coveted opportunity at WrestleMania.
