As seen on NXT TakeOver: Portland, Rhea Ripley successfully defended her NXT Championship against Bianca Belair. After what was said to be a phenomenal match-up, Ripley hit the Rip-Tide on Belair for the three counts.
After the match, however, Ripley was ambushed by none other than Charlotte Flair. Flair floored her with a vicious Leg Drop and let out a loud “WOOO!”
Flair took the microphone and said that she thought about Ripley’s suggestion and now she will see her at WrestleMania. She then took up the NXT Championship and held it up high in the middle of the ring.
