Rhea Ripley & Tiffany Stratton React to Charlotte Flair’s Royal Rumble Win

Charlotte Flair made a statement at the 2025 WWE Royal Rumble, returning after more than a year to win the Women’s Royal Rumble Match and secure her spot at WrestleMania 41. But not everyone is impressed—WWE Women’s World Champion Rhea Ripley and WWE Women’s Champion Tiffany Stratton have already weighed in on Flair’s big win, and neither of them seems worried.

Speaking in a WWE Digital Exclusive backstage interview, Ripley dismissed Flair as a threat, making it clear she’s already moved on from their past encounters.

“I just want to remind Charlotte of WrestleMania 39. We’ve been there, done that. I beat her last time, she’s been out for a while, she’s got a bummed knee. I already beat her, I’m done.”

For those who don’t remember, Ripley defeated Flair at WrestleMania 39 to win the SmackDown Women’s Championship back in 2023. Now, she doesn’t seem interested in a rematch. When asked who she thinks Flair will challenge, Ripley quickly passed the pressure to Tiffany Stratton with a smirk: “Good luck, Tiffy. All you, mate.”

Meanwhile, Stratton took a different approach, embracing the possibility of facing Flair and doubling down on her confidence.

“Like I said Friday, it doesn’t matter who wins because at WrestleMania, it’s going to be Tiffy Time. If she chooses to challenge me, it’s gonna be Tiffy Time at WrestleMania.”

With Charlotte Flair back in the title picture, the landscape of WrestleMania 41 just got a whole lot more interesting. Rhea Ripley may be brushing her off, and Tiffany Stratton might be welcoming the challenge, but either way, The Queen is coming for gold. Will she run it back with Ripley, or is “Tiffy Time” about to turn into Flair Country? One thing’s for sure—nobody is safe when Charlotte Flair has a title shot in her sights.
