Summary

Charlotte Flair says she wants one more WrestleMania match with Rhea Ripley to settle their series on the biggest stage.

The two previously met at WrestleMania 36 for the NXT Women's Championship, where Flair got the win. They crossed paths again at WrestleMania 39, and Ripley evened things up by defeating Flair. With the score at 1-1, Flair said she would like to see the rivalry reach a proper conclusion.

That idea also lands at a time when both women are already part of the WrestleMania 42 conversation. Ripley heads into the event chasing the WWE Women's Championship, while Flair is set for a tag title match after questions were raised about her chemistry with Alexa Bliss.

Quote from Charlotte Flair

While speaking with Kay Adams on Up & Adams, Flair said:

"I think for the landscape of women and stories that I could see in the future, I think one, I've beaten Rhea at one WrestleMania. She's beaten me at one WrestleMania. To have the first ever women's trilogy would be pretty incredible."

What Charlotte Flair vs. Rhea Ripley could add to WrestleMania

Flair framing the series as a potential trilogy gives WWE an easy long-term hook if the company ever wants to revisit one of its biggest women's rivalries. Because each woman already owns one WrestleMania win over the other, a third match would come with clear stakes before a bell even rings.

It also says something about how highly Flair still views Ripley as a marquee opponent. In a division that already has both women positioned near the top of the card, even teasing that rubber match is enough to keep the pairing relevant beyond WrestleMania 42.
