On this week’s episode of Monday Night RAW, WWE Chairman & CEO Vince McMahon suspended Becky Lynch for 60 days, effectively taking her out of her WrestleMania Match against RAW Women’s Champion Ronda Rousey. Vince would then immediately add Charlotte Flair to the match.
Despite this catching most of the headlines, Ruby Riott is facing Rousey for the title at this Sunday’s Elimination Chamber PPV Event and she jumped on Twitter to remind everyone that The WrestleMania Title Match is not quite set in stone yet. Riott wrote:
“My title match was announced via tweet. The matches announced for WrestleMania don’t even have me as a possible contender. I’ve been underrated & disregarded. But after I beat Ronda Rousey this Sunday, I won’t be overlooked again. And Charlotte, I’ll see you at WrestleMania.”
On last Tuesday night’s episode of SmackDown LIVE, Charlotte Flair opened the show and did at least acknowledge that Riott could be her new WrestleMania opponent after Sunday, as seen below:
“By the way, Ronda, I have a front row ticket to your match against Ruby Riott at Elimination Chamber,” Charlotte said. “Don’t be nervous, I’m just scouting your match, I promise I won’t interfere. But maybe we’re going to have a new RAW Women’s Champion and I’ll have a new WrestleMania opponent. Who knows?”
My title match was announced via tweet.
The matches announced for Wrestlemania don’t even have me as a possible contender.
I’ve been underrated & disregarded.
But after I beat @RondaRousey this Sunday, I won’t be overlooked again.
And @MsCharlotteWWE I’ll see you at Wrestlemania
