Ensuring the smooth functioning of a wrestler’s entrance is crucial. But slip-ups may happen now and then. The most recent slip-up that the WWE universe caught occurred because of a mistake that the backstage crew did. All of this happened during SmackDown last Friday. However, when the clip went viral, Rhea Ripley held herself responsible for the same.
While Mami doesn’t directly put the blame on herself, she retweeted the video clip and replied in a funny way. Some would argue that the way she replied stole the light away from Bianca Belair‘s botched entrance during the night.

Bianca Belair entered the arena this Friday Night SmackDown with her theme song and braid-swinging style. However, something about her entrance was off. The backstage part of the production accidentally played Mami’s background on the big screen during Belair’s entrance. The theme song was still Belair’s, so the wrestler did not lose her moment. But the WWE universe caught the blunder and made it viral, to which Ripley finally replied.

Retweeting a fan page’s tweet regarding the video, Ripley added, “Even the production team are thinking about Mami.”
Rather than weighing on the botched job, The Eradicator let it go and delivered a hilarious statement out of it. Without knowing, the female wrestler could have saved the production team from professional embarrassment.

The 26-year-old champion won the title at WrestleMania 39. Ever since she defeated Charlotte Flair at WrestleMania 39, Ripley has achieved victory in every WWE singles match. Even Flair, her rival, appreciated her hard work in the industry. Ripley’s confidence and intimidation brought her new foes, introducing her to new storylines. Could Bianca Belair’s botched entrance be foreshadowing another feud that is yet to come?
Since Belair has already remained a champion once, WWE might consider her capable enough to take on The Eradicator. Ripley and Belair met in singles competition only twice with both encounters in NXT. The two female superstars have come leaps and bounds since then, with their elevated stature in the industry. A matchup between Ripley and Belair could prove to be an enticing affair for both fans and wrestlers alike due to the scope for unique story angles and chemistry.
