After defending her world title successfully at Crown Jewel in Saudi Arabia last year, WWE World Heavyweight Champion Rhea Ripley is set to defend her title again. This time, the opponent is expected to be one of the superstars she faced in the Fatal 5-way match. Although she has Bayley waiting in line at WrestleMania, she must endure the storm in Australia first.
Rhea Ripley to possibly face Nia Jax at Elimination Chamber
Renowned wrestling journalist Dave Meltzer has given an update on the next opponent of Rhea Ripley. He states, “Rhea Ripley vs. Nia Jax is the plan for Elimination Chamber this month.” WWE has been building the ‘irresistible force’ Nia Jax up for a grand match since her return, last year. Since her return, she even defeated Becky Lynch clean before her iconic moment with Jade Cargill at Royal Rumble.
Jax has involved herself in the matters of The Eradicator for a long. After helping Ripley at Payback on September 2nd in Pennsylvania, she attacked Ripley to make her intentions clear. Though she had her chance at Crown Jewel, now Jax will have a one-on-one opportunity. It will be interesting for fans to see The Irresistible Force take on the most dominant women in the division.
