Rhea Ripley addresses her loss of the women’s world title to Iyo Sky on WWE RAW
As seen during the March 3rd 2025 edition of WWE RAW, Iyo Sky defeated Rhea Ripley to win the women’s world title. Iyo vs. Bianca Belair was then announced for Wrestlemania 41.
Following her loss, Rhea said the following in a post-match interview…
“I’m pissed off. I’m mad, I’m furious. I’m everything. Every single angry feeling, I am feeling. But the thing is, I can’t get mad at IYO. I can’t fully be mad at Bianca. I’m more disappointed and mad at myself because I should have known better. I should have known not to take my eye off the ball. I’ve been through this crap with Liv Morgan. I’ve been through all this with Dom, I’ve been through it with Judgment Day, and I still cannot learn. I cannot learn to think for myself, and I cannot learn to keep my eye on the ball, and I cannot learn that friends are not real.”
“I understand that IYO’s a part of that, too. We all have teamed together. We’ve all been there for each other, we’ve been here since NXT together. Growing up together, coming to the main roster together, all of that. But… Every single time people ask me who my opponent is for WrestleMania that I want, it’s always Bianca Belair. We were both on the WWE 2K24 cover together. We’ve literally been growing up on each side, on each brand, and just taking over, and now, everything that I wanted and everything that I worked for and everything that I strived to get back and be dominant, it’s all taken away, and it’s all because I’m just so stupid. I’m so stupid, I’m so stupid.” (quotes courtesy of SI.com)
