Bianca Belair Believes Her WrestleMania Dream Match Is One WWE Fans Want Too

February 25, 2025

Bianca Belair discusses her goals.

This weekend, Bianca Belair enters the Elimination Chamber hoping to earn a WWE Women’s World Championship match at WrestleMania 41. At the same time, “The EST” hopes to continue forward in her tag team with Naomi. During the WWE Elimination Chamber media call (via Fightful), Belair opened up about the task of balancing these goals, especially in the midst of WrestleMania season.

“I’m someone who likes to achieve as much as I possibly can,” Belair said. “So while I am the tag team champion right now and I would love to go to WrestleMania and defend those tag team titles, I would equally just as much love to win Elimination Chamber and go against Rhea Ripley [at WrestleMania]. That’s always been a dream match of mine. I feel like it’s a dream match for fans as well. To be able to go and possibly have another title opportunity, remain undefeated WrestleMania, and be someone that can take down Rhea Ripley. who wouldn’t want to do that?

Bianca Belair wants to prove she’s the best against Rhea Ripley

“I feel like we both have kind of been on opposite sides of the mountain racing our way to the top. And right now, she has that title, so the perception is that she’s the best,” Belair continued. “My reality is that I’m the best, so I want to go to WrestleMania and I want to prove that. I’m going to do everything that I can in this Elimination Chamber to make sure that I can point to that WrestleMania sign, solidify my path to WrestleMania, go and face Rhea Ripley. And at the same time, hopefully get to go and defend our tag team titles alongside Naomi.”

Belair’s statements were made before she and Naomi dropped the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship to Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez on WWE Raw. The loss makes their next steps as a tag team uncertain.

However, she (and Naomi) will still enter the Women’s Elimination Chamber in hopes of earning a singles title match at WrestleMania. Belair wants to face Ripley, but the defending champion on that occasion remains undecided, at least for another week. Rhea Ripley will first put the WWE Women’s World Championship on the line against IYO SKY on next week’s Raw.
