This year’s biggest PLE will see Charlotte Flair and Rhea Ripley lock horns with each other. This bout will blow off the roof as two of the most dominant female stars will collide with each other for the second time at The Grandest Stage of Them All.

However, this is not the match-up that the decision-makers of WWE initially had in mind. WWE originally had pitched Ripley to square off against a former WWE SmackDown Women’s Champion at The Showcase of Immortals, this year. Nevertheless, this update has irked some of the pro wrestling fans as they didn’t agree with the original plans of WWE.
