The two will finally be going one-on-one as Nia Jax will challenge Rhea Ripley for the Women’s World Championship. This will be in Ripley’s home country of Australia in Perth.
The match was made official on the Feb. 5 episode of Raw by General Manager Adam Pearce. Ripley made her way out to the ring “unscheduled” and called out Jax because she was furious about what took place last week. Pearce made his way out and told her this wasn’t gonna happen now, but at Elimination Chamber.
Jax made her way out anyway and ran over Pearce to get to Ripley in the ring. Security was called but it didn’t stop Jax from taking out Ripley once again with the Annihilator.
The last time Ripley defended the title at a premium live event was in November at Survivor Series against Zoey Stark.

Becky Lynch has a few fights lined up as she says. One being Nia Jax. You see, things never were really dealt with between the two of them from years ago, and Lynch is bringing the receipt. But first, Jax had to face her former tag team partner, Shayna Baszler.
Despite Baszler saying that she would tear Jax limb by limb as she did two years ago, it would be Jax who dominated most of the match. However, towards the end of the match, Baszler did lock in the Kirifuda Clutch which did have Jax down on the mat. Jax was able to break free and eventually hit the anniahlator for the victory.
As Jax was selling the Kirifuda Clutch and celebrating her win, Lynch’s music hit. Lynch made her way to the ring, but Jax escaped up the ramp.
The second match of the night had Kayden Carter and Katana Chance taking on Natalya and Tegan Nox. The WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions Piper Niven and Chelsea Green were on commentary.
Nox and Natalya were looking to rebound from their loss against the tag champs, but unfortunately they weren’t able to put themselves right back into contention. It would be the KC’s that came out with a victory. The final moments had the KC’s execute a keg stand on top Natalya. Chance got the pin as Carter delivered a kick to keep Nox away.
After the match, Chance knocked Green off the apron and the KC’s let the champs know that they are coming for the titles.

Jax reminded Lynch that she punched her in the face and broke her nose all those years ago. To where The Man responded that she went on to main event WrestleMania while Jax got fired.
Stark outlasted 13 other women to win this match. It should have been 15, but as Becky Lynch was making her way down the ramp, Xia Li knocked her out with the roundhouse kick. Much like she did to Candice LeRae last week. This had Lynch taken out of the match and General Manager Adam Pearce removed Li from the match.
The match would be given plenty of time and showcased many women. This included the tag team work of Kayden Carter and Katana Chance, and the Raw in-ring official debut of Ivy Nile who eliminated both Carter and Chance.
The match would get down to a final five of Nile, Stark, Nia Jax, Raquel Rodriguez, and Shayna Baszler. It would take Rodriguez, Baszler, and Stark to eliminate Jax. Nile was on the ring apron which angered Jax who pulled her off, eliminating Nile in the process. Rodriguez would be eliminated next as this left Stark and Baszler to slug it out on the ring apron. Finally Stark would get the win after Baszler had both feet touch the floor.
This match also had Tegan Nox return from her brief injury.
