Quick Match Results

Ripley then stated that she wants Lynch at 100% at WrestleMania so that there would not be any excuse when she beats her. Lynch responded stating that Ripley thinks she is better than her, but Ripley has to prove she’s not. Lynch then stated that when people believe in her, she’s good and when people doubt her, she’s great. Lynch then stated if it has to be her against the whole world, then the whole world doesn’t stand a chance.
