Ex-WWE star comments on Rhea Ripley's future following WrestleMania loss
Stevie Richards recently suggested that Rhea Ripley could be in line for a title shot at WWE SummerSlam later this year.
Speaking on The Stevie Richards Show, the veteran suggested that the former champion could begin a rivalry with Bianca Belair in the weeks ahead. Richards added that the two stars might compete to determine the number one contender, with the winner challenging IYO SKY at SummerSlam for the Women's World Championship in August.
"I believe this was booked right for one reason, IYO SKY, Rhea Ripley, Bianca Belair, but mainly Rhea and Bianca, who can afford to do the job if the other goes over. How about if neither go [sic] over and you continue with IYO SKY, who needs the belt to get more over? Rhea and Bianca right now, they have a singles match. They can go off on each other, winner gets a title shot at SummerSlam is my prediction. But this was an excellently booked match," Richards said. [2:14 - 2:45]
