Ripley versus Belair at Money in the Bank.

The first match for WWE’s 2022 Money in the Bank Premium Live Event has been made official. It’ll be Rhea Ripley challenging Bianca Belair for her Raw Women’s Championship.

Ripley earned the opportunity by besting Alexa Bliss, Doudrop and Liv Morgan in a Fatal 4-Way to secure the title match. Post-match, Rhea alongside members of The Judgment Day, Finn Balor and Damian Priest, stared down Belair.

Earlier in the night, Rhea, Balor and Priest aligned with one another and kicked Edge out of the group.

At the Hell in a Cell event, Belair successfully defended the Raw Women’s Title when she defeated Asuka and Becky Lynch. This upcoming match between Belair and Ripley is going to be their third singles match. Their last two took places under the NXT brand and Ripley won both.
