Wrestlemania 41 angles are reportedly being kicked off from the Netflix premiere episode of WWE Monday Night Raw set for tomorrow night at the Intuit Dome in Los Angeles, California. It appears a major title change is slated to occur on the show which in turn will gradually set up a championship match at the biggest WWE premium live event of the year in April.
Liv Morgan is scheduled to defend her WWE Women’s World Championship against Rhea Ripley on this week’s Raw Netflix premiere but she’s not expected to come out of the show as the champion and as such, her dream of entering Wrestlemania 41 as the reigning champion may not be fulfilled.
WWE Raw Netflix: Big Return Expected On WWE Programming On January 6 Episode
This bout was originally advertised as a Last Woman Standing match on Raw, but WWE is now advertising it as a traditional singles match. According to the current odds, Ripley is a heavy favorite to defeat Morgan and win the Women’s World Title once again, becoming an overall three-time women’s world champion with WWE willing to let her carry the gold at Wrestlemania 41.
The title change at Raw’s Netflix premiere is seemingly possible given that PWN reports that Rhea Ripley vs. IYO SKY for the Women’s World Championship is the current plan for WrestleMania 41. SKY might also play a role in the title match on Raw as she was the previous challenger for the women’s world title.
Back at Saturday Night’s Main Event in December, Morgan successfully defended the women’s world title against SKY. It appears that the DAMAGE CTRL member will again get a chance to gun for the title at Wrestlemania 41 if the current plans remain intact.
