WWE Raw Preview: Bianca Belair to Referee Title Match with Wrestlemania 41 Stakes
Exciting WWE Raw Episode Ahead
In the upcoming episode of WWE Raw, Bianca Belair will take center stage as the special guest referee, playing a crucial role in determining her opponent for Wrestlemania 41, following her victory in the 2025 women's Elimination Chamber match.
This week on WWE Raw in Glasgow, a heated confrontation unfolded involving WWE Women’s World Champion IYO SKY, Bianca Belair, and former champion Rhea Ripley. Following this, General Manager Adam Pearce announced that SKY would defend her title against Ripley in a rematch from a previous encounter.
Belair's role as the special guest referee for this match means that the winner will earn the chance to challenge SKY for the WWE Women’s World Championship at Wrestlemania 41. This could lead to a highly anticipated three-way match at the event, although it may end up being a singles match on paper.
During WWE Raw, Pearce clarified that Rhea Ripley would not be added to the title match, despite her signing the WrestleMania contract last week. The three competitors engaged in a physical altercation, with Belair ultimately standing victorious. Pearce then confirmed the match for next week, indicating that Belair must wait a bit longer to find out who her WrestleMania opponent will be.
Pearce made the match for next week, stating that Belair has to wait for one more week to learn her WrestleMania opponent.
