Rhea Ripley Dethrones Jade Cargill for WWE Women’s Title at WrestleMania 42

Cargill’s quick call for a rematch signals the feud will continue.

Overview

  • Ripley beat Cargill on Sunday at WrestleMania 42 after IYO SKY fought off Michin and B‑Fab and Ripley countered Jaded into a Riptide for the pin.
  • The result ended Cargill’s 169‑day reign as champion in a match that highlighted run‑ins from both sides.
  • This was their first singles meeting, and Ripley earned the shot by winning February’s Women’s Elimination Chamber match.
  • Cargill hit a version of Kenny Omega’s One‑Winged Angel during the bout, and Omega wrote Monday that he viewed the nod as a compliment.
  • After the loss, Cargill said she plans to get revenge and a rematch, while pre‑event coverage also noted Ripley’s disclosure that she is addressing an eating disorder, which drew broad support from fans.
