Bianca Belair Wins Elimination Chamber, Gets Rhea Ripley or Sky at WWE WrestleMania

Bianca Belair won the women's Elimination Chamber match at the same-titled premium live event on Saturday, setting up a Women's World Championship match against either Rhea Ripley or Iyo Sky at WrestleMania 41.

The match came down to Belair and Liv Morgan, who tried to land an ObLivion for the win. However, The EST of WWE countered it into a K.O.D. to earn her WrestleMania 41 spot.

This match also notably featured the return of Jade Cargill, who stunningly attacked her now ex-friend, Naomi, at the beginning of the match.

Cargill was mysteriously attacked in November, and the perpetrator was never found.

Morgan's reaction after Cargill's music hit made it seem as though she was the target, but then Naomi was attacked in the ring. There will be more to come on this front.

Belair was the star of this match, though, after bettering some of the best Superstars the WWE women's division has to offer to secure a massive match on The Grandest Stage of Them All in Las Vegas.

Given women's Royal Rumble winner Charlotte Flair chose WWE women's champion Tiffany Stratton as her WrestleMania opponent, it left the Elimination Chamber winner to go after the women's world title.

Many of WWE's best female wrestlers were given a chance to compete in the Elimination Chamber match through a series of qualifying bouts, and six of them ultimately emerged.

Morgan beat Sky by disqualification due to interference from Ripley; Belair defeated Piper Niven; Alexa Bliss took down Candice LeRae; Bayley got past Lyra Valkyria; Naomi was victorious against Chelsea Green; and Roxanne Perez triumphed over Raquel Rodriguez.

While the No. 1 contender for the Women's World Championship is now known, it isn't yet clear who will be the titleholder entering WrestleMania.

Since Ripley accidentally cost Sky a spot in the Chamber match, she granted her a women's world title match on Monday night's episode of Raw.

The winner of that match will go on to WrestleMania 41 to defend against Belair in another blockbuster bout.

While Belair has primarily been a tag team wrestler for the past year, she was arguably the most dominant singles wrestler in the women's division before then.

By winning the Elimination Chamber, The EST is back in the singles ranks, and she now has a chance to win her first singles title since August 2023.
