Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas hosted the second night of WrestleMania 41 on April 20. The home of the Las Vegas Raiders drew over 60,000 fans for WrestleMania Sunday, which featured several huge matches across the card.
One of the featured matches was for the WWE Womens World Championship. IYO SKY defended her title in a triple threat match against Rhea Ripley and Bianca Belair.
This match was originally supposed to be IYO Sky against Bianca Belair, since Belair won the 2025 Elimination Chamber match. However, Rhea Ripley inserted herself into the situation, attacking them both during a contract signing to force her way into the title picture.
The contest received a big fight feel as it opened up the show of shows second night, thanks to Alicia Taylors ring entrances. The match was a fight from the start, as each woman wanted to get an advantage in their WrestleMania encounter. Bianca Belair was also fighting to keep her undefeated Mania streak going past four.
This match was one big move after another, like when Rhea Ripley hit a Razors Edge on Bianca Belair onto IYO Sky. The match continued, and Ripley maintained her ground throughout most of it, even after reversing out of a KOD from Belair.
Ripley got her boots up as IYO was going for a Over The Moonsault, and then Bianca hit a KOD, but Rhea broke up the pinfall. Later on, Belair countered out of a Riptide to nail Rhea with her braid before hitting a KOD, but IYO nailed an Over The Moonsault on her to pick up the win. IYO certainly proved that she is far from an afterthought during this match.
We will have to see what the fallout is after WrestleMania 41. At his point, they are still going with some serious momentum as we exit the show of shows.
