After her remarkable victory last night at WWE Elimination Chamber in Perth, Australia, Rhea Ripley took a moment to express her gratitude to her fans with a heartfelt message.
In a thrilling main event, the Eradicator successfully defended her Women’s World Championship against the formidable Nia Jax.
Despite Jax’s resilience, Ripley’s prowess proved insurmountable as she executed a powerful superplex followed by her signature Riptide, clinching the victory via pinfall.
The Women’s Elimination Chamber Match showcased the talents of Becky Lynch, Naomi, Tiffany Stratton, Raquel Rodriguez, Liv Morgan, and Bianca Belair.
Ultimately, it was Lynch who emerged victorious, securing her path to challenge Ripley for the title at WWE WrestleMania 40.
In the aftermath of this premier event, Ripley took to social media to express her gratitude to her Australian fans, emphasizing their unwavering support and declaring Australia as her eternal home.

Her post, resonating with triumph and gratitude, underscored her appreciation for the enthusiastic reception from the Australian audience.
“AND STILL!!! Thank you Australia! 🇦🇺❤️ You will forever be my home! #WWEChamber,” she enthusiastically shared.
Looking ahead to WrestleMania 40, Ripley is not only focused on her impending showdown with Lynch but also bold in her assertion that their match deserves the spotlight as the main event. In an interview with Alex McCarthy of Daily Mail, Ripley confidently stated her case, highlighting her consistent dominance in the ring and expressing her readiness to face Lynch on the grandest stage of them all.
“And, it’s still Mami’s time to shine because Mami is always on top. And, I’ve proved that time in and time again. So, if we are given the opportunity, if we take the opportunity to be the main event, I hope Becky Lynch is ready.”
Ripley’s ascent to the top began with her victory over Charlotte Flair at WWE WrestleMania 39, and her subsequent reign has been characterized by dominance and resilience.
As anticipation builds for WrestleMania 40, the clash between Ripley and Lynch promises to be a spectacle, with fans eagerly awaiting to witness who will emerge triumphant in the battle for the Women’s World Championship.
