During Monday night’s edition of RAW, WWE RAW Women’s Champion Asuka had just defeated Peyton Royce in a non-title match when Rhea Ripley made her official RAW debut. Ripley got on the mic and said that since Charlotte Flair is not around (due to COVID-19), she is stepping up to the plate and is challenging Asuka to a championship match for WrestleMania 37.
Asuka responded by saying that Ripley is “not ready for Asuka”, but will accept her challenge anyway.
