Bianca Belair sent a message to Rhea Ripley and Bayley after The Role Model was added to the WarGames Match. She is possibly set to replace an injured Jade Cargill, who was ambushed on last week's SmackDown.

At WarGames, Ripley, Belair, Bayley, Naomi, and IYO SKY will face the team of Nia Jax, Liv Morgan, Tiffany Stratton, Candice LeRae, and Raquel Rodriguez. The match was confirmed after Ripley's recent return from injury.

On Twitter/X, Belair sent a message after beating Nia Jax in the WarGames advantage match with an assist from Bayley. She boldly claimed to have carried the team on her back leading up to Survivor Series.

"Put the team on my back tonight Advantage Belair… [kiss emoji] Team Rhea... [ogre emoji] Bayley... [smirking face emoji]," wrote Belair.

Rhea Ripley is interested in a match against Bianca Belair

Rhea Ripley has expressed interest in facing Bianca Belair in a singles match. The Eradicator believes she is quite close to The EST in terms of strength.

In a prior interview with Sportskeeda Wrestling, Ripley claimed she has no animosity toward Belair and even praised the current WWE Women's Tag Team Champion.

"Look, I love Bianca Belair. I have no beef with Bianca Belair. I think she's absolutely incredible at what she does. There's that competitor side of me that wants to step in the ring with her. I wanna see who's gonna come out victorious. I wanna see who's stronger, who's more agile. She might have me in the agile aspect, but stronger? I don't know, we're a little bit close."

Ripley and Belair have crossed paths a few times in the past. In 2020, at NXT TakeOver: Portland, Ripley successfully defended the NXT Women's Championship against Belair in a singles match. The following year, Belair won the Women's Royal Rumble Match by eliminating Ripley.

Ripley, Belair, and the rest of their teammates will hope to put their issues aside and walk out victorious at WarGames.
