The SmackDown Women’s Champion Rhea Ripley is set to have her first championship defense since her big win at WrestleMania. She will be defending against Zelina Vega at Backlash on May 6.
On the April 21 episode of SmackDown, Vega approached Adam Pearce and gave a pretty flawless reason as to why she should challenge Ripley. Besides the obvious feud between the LWO and Judgment Day, Vega being the only Puerto Rican female on the roster it would only make sense for her to face Ripley in Puerto Rico.
Pearce said he would check with upper management and Ripley herself and the match was made official later in the show.
As for another title, the Women’s Tag Team Titles were defended on this week’s SmackDown. Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez would successfully retain in their first title defense. They faced Chelsea Green and Sonya Deville. The final moments of the match had Morgan get revenge on Green by throwing water in her face.

After the April 18 episode of NXT, next week’s Spring Breakin’ is stacked and we will get to those details shortly.
First, on this weeks episode Roxanne Perez took to the ring to challenge Zoey Stark. The two had a run in last week with Stark mocking Perez. Towards the end of the match, Perez went for the Pop Rox, but Stark was able to avoid it. Stark nailed a Dragon Suplex for a near fall. Stark went for an Irish Whip on Perez, but the former NXT Women’s Champion went over Stark and hit the Pop Rox for the pinfall win.
After the match, the NXT Women’s Champion Indi Hartwell made her way to the ring. She wanted to make it official and offer Perez the next shot at the championship next week. Before they could shake on it, Tiffany Stratton’s music hit. She couldn’t seem to understand how she was passed over for another title opportunity. She claims Perez is easily beatable but Perez reminded her that she was victorious against Stratton in the break out tournament.
Hartwell agreed to defend against both women as she remains a fighting champion.
Next we had a match between Gigi Dolin and a returning Cora Jade. This was Jade’s first match back on TV since January. The final moments had Dolin on the offense but Jacy Jayne appeared for a distraction. Dolin took Jayne out over the announce table but Jayne’s appearance would take Dolin away from Jade. Jade caught Dolin back in the ring with a knee strike and hit the Death Rider for the victory.
Post match, as Jade was still in the ring, Lyra Valkyria appeared and the two finally will have their match next week.
A third match for Spring Breakin’ has been confirmed and it will be a mixed tag team bout. Fallon Henley and Josh Briggs will take on Kiana James and Brooks Jensen. Jensen with a new look is tired of Briggs and Henley holding him back.

Trish Stratus was the hottest news coming out of the April 17 episode of Raw as her heel turn is now in full effect.
Stratus started the promo by reminding fans that it was her and her alone that started the women’s revolution. Before she came in the door many years ago there was no women’s division and she made it. She corrected any thought that Lita would be included in that and admitted to be the one that took Lita out last week.
Stratus would then direct her message to Becky Lynch. She says she wanted to make sure that she was the one who made Lynch lose the tag titles. And she did just that. She was set out to prove that she is no one’s sidekick when it came to Lita and Lynch.
She ended the promo with, “I am the greatest of all time. I am the single most important figure in the history of WWE, and I’m here to make sure none of you forget it.” She dropped the mic to end the segment.
There were two women’s matches this week as the first was the Raw Women’s Champion Bianca Belair taking on Dakota Kai. Ringside was Bayley and the number one contender IYO SKY.
Although taking Belair to her limits, Kai wasn’t able to get the victory as Belair landed the KOD to win the match. In a WWE digital exclusive, Bayley attempted to clear the air on anyone continuing to say there are issues within Damage CTRL before Kai cut her off.
Kai says she appreciates Bayley always hyping her up but she did fail against Belair. She then directed it to SKY to be the one to take the title off of her. SKY says she sees Bianca’s weakness and will beat her.
The second women’s match was the shorter of the two but it was Chelsea Green and Sonya Deville taking on Michin and Candice LeRae. The tag champions Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez sat at ringside. Green and Deville will be getting a title opportunity this Friday and needed a win to gain momentum. And a win they got after Green landed the Unprettier on Michin.
Nikki Cross was in the crowd, still stalking Candice.
Post-match, Green and Deville threw water in the face of the champs. On Raw Talk, Morgan gave a huge message that water is not going to make them mad as she poured more water on herself. She says to “watch us” if Green and Deville think they are taking the tag titles.
Maxxine Dupri was on as well still fighting with Chad Gable over Otis.
