Rhea Ripley Reflects On 'The Four Horsewomen Era,' Says It Will Live On Forever

The term "Four Horsewomen" in WWE evokes a sense of revolution and accomplishment. It refers to a quartet of wrestlers – Charlotte Flair, Sasha Banks, Becky Lynch, and Bayley – who rose to prominence together in NXT, WWE's developmental brand. Their impact transcended NXT, forever changing the landscape of women's wrestling in WWE. ## During their time in NXT, the Four Horsewomen honed their craft and delivered consistently stellar matches. They pushed each other to new heights, captivating audiences with their athleticism, storytelling, and undeniable charisma. Their success was instrumental in the "Divas Revolution," a movement that demanded better storylines and in-ring opportunities for female wrestlers. ## Ripley's defining moment came at the 2023 Royal Rumble. Entering as the number one entrant, she defied the odds and became the first woman ever to win the Rumble from that position. This victory propelled her towards a championship showdown with Charlotte Flair at WrestleMania. At the Grandest Stage of Them All, Ripley delivered a dominant performance, dethroning Flair and capturing the SmackDown Women's Championship. She now most recently defeated Becky Lynch to retain the Women's World Championship. ## In her post-match press conference at WrestleMania XL, Rhea Ripley addressed the future of the Four Horsewomen era following her victory over Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair. ## "You know, the Four Horsemen Era, it will live on forever. They accomplished so much. They took the women's division to heights that we could have only dreamt of. They've done so much for the business and I have all the respect for every single one of them. I feel like the way that I've been going WrestleMania after WrestleMania finally knocking off the Horsewoman and the same as Bianca Belair. She's been doing the same. ## We've been proving that there is a shift coming and these new women they are taking over and we're showing out with trying to take it to higher heights that it has been taken to. Obviously, for those women, they're amazing at what they do, and we don't want them to leave but they're going to have to move over, because we're taking over at the same time." ## While the group hasn't officially been together for some time, their influence continues to be felt. As of April 2024, three of the Four Horsewomen – Charlotte Flair, Becky Lynch, and Bayley – are still with WWE. Sasha Banks, however, recently left the company. Their individual paths may have diverged, but their legacy as a collective force that revolutionized women's wrestling in WWE remains undeniable. ## Stay Tuned To Sacnilk...

Becky Lynch Comments On Mercedes Mone's Reported Contract With AEW

Becky Lynch, a top star in WWE, has spoken out about the importance of financial rewards for female wrestlers. Her comments come in the wake of Mercedes Mone's (formerly Sasha Banks) reported lucrative contract with AEW.## Lynch and Mone are both considered pioneers of the "Women's Evolution" in WWE. Lynch remains a mainstay in the company, while Mone recently made a high-profile debut for AEW, with rumors suggesting she'll be one of the highest-paid women wrestlers.## In an interview with the Orlando Sentinel, Lynch addressed Mone's reported contract: "I think that's an important part, getting paid equally for the equal work and the equal position we are at right now. Women's evolutions and revolutions are fine and well, but making sure they equate to contracts and financial reward for these things, when we are doing equal work, is hugely important." ## This sentiment echoes Mone's own recent statement, where she declared being "all about that bag" and acknowledging the power of financial gain. ## While WWE reportedly offered Mone a substantial deal, she ultimately chose a different path, potentially one with greater financial rewards. ## Stay Tuned To Sacnilk...

Unused Wrestlers Discovered In WWE 2K24 Files

Data miners have uncovered a treasure trove of unused character renders in the files of WWE 2K24, hinting at potential plans that never came to fruition. ## Content creators JoeMashUps and WhatsTheStatus revealed their findings on Twitter, showcasing renders for both current and former superstars. These names suggest these wrestlers might have been slated to appear in the game at some point during development. ## The list includes stars currently signed to AEW, like Adam Copeland (Edge) and Mercedes Mone (Sasha Banks), as well as those wrestling for TNA, such as Ash By Elegance (Dana Brooke). Additionally, renders for wrestlers no longer with WWE were found, including Matt Riddle, Brie Bella, Emma, Mace, Mansoor, and Lacey Evans (who even has a complete in-game model). ## Interestingly, the unused renders extend beyond former WWE personnel. NXT talents Eddy Thorpe and Jakara Jackson were also discovered, alongside already-announced future DLC character Nia Jax.## Existing wrestlers featured in the final game also had alternate renders in the files, including different attires for Seth Rollins and Triple H.## For a more comprehensive look at these findings, you can check out the tweets embedded in this article. ## More left over renders in #WWE2K24 pic.twitter.com/xnfKLLKzXm— 𝕾𝖙𝖆𝖙𝖚𝖘™ (@WhatsTheStatus) March 24, 2024 ## More left over renders in #WWE2K24 pic.twitter.com/j1U0RVDwGs— 𝕾𝖙𝖆𝖙𝖚𝖘™ (@WhatsTheStatus) March 24, 2024 ## Brie BellaMatt RiddleSasha BanksJagger Reid Left Over Renders in #WWE2K24 pic.twitter.com/4iC1GgynK3— 𝕾𝖙𝖆𝖙𝖚𝖘™ (@WhatsTheStatus) March 24, 2024 ## Looks like Eddy Thorpe was planned at one point for #WWE2K24 pic.twitter.com/TofXfm4vay— 𝕾𝖙𝖆𝖙𝖚𝖘™ (@WhatsTheStatus) March 24, 2024 ## WWE2K24 Planned/Cancelled WrestlersJakara Jackson: Was in the main Menu tilesEmma: Was in the main Menu tilesNia Jax: Was in the main Menu tilesLacey Evans: Jakara Jackson: Was in the main Menu tiles/ has a new gear ingame pic.twitter.com/KqDOizFTJB— Joe Mashups (@JoeMashups) March 24, 2024 ## Stay Tuned To Sacnilk...

Bayley Makes Case For Women Headlining Both Nights Of WWE WrestleMania 40

With WrestleMania 40 fast approaching, Bayley is making a bold statement. The WWE Superstar recently spoke to the Daily Mail, questioning why the women can't headline both nights of the Grandest Stage of Them All. ## Bayley, currently on the road to her own WrestleMania match against IYO SKY for the WWE Women's Championship, proposed a solution: "You guys can have the first night and I'll take the second night. You know, we can do that."## "You guys can have the first night and I'll take the second night. You know, we can do that. You never had two women main event both shows at WrestleMania. Why can't it be this year?" ## This ambitious goal comes despite the expected main events for WrestleMania. The Rock's highly anticipated return is likely to headline night one alongside Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins. Night two is projected to feature the much-awaited clash between Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns.## Historically, women haven't been strangers to main eventing major WWE shows. WrestleMania itself has seen such moments twice: Becky Lynch's historic victory over Charlotte Flair and Ronda Rousey in 2019, and Bianca Belair's SmackDown Women's Championship win on WrestleMania 37's first night.## However, Bayley's vision extends beyond singular main events. NXT TakeOver: Respect in 2015 became the first major event to feature a women's main event with Bayley retaining the NXT Women's Championship against Sasha Banks in an Iron Man match. This trend continued on the main roster with Sasha Banks losing the Raw Women's Championship to Charlotte Flair at Hell in a Cell 2016.## Beyond Wrestlemania, WWE has presented several other all-female main events, including the 2017 Mae Young Classic, the 2018 Evolution pay-per-view, and even the 2018 Royal Rumble featuring the debut of Ronda Rousey. Additionally, women have closed out TLC events in 2018 and 2019, as well as Elimination Chamber in 2020 (the last pre-pandemic PLE with a live crowd) and most recently, Rhea Ripley's victory over Nia Jax at Elimination Chamber 2024. ## Stay Tuned To Sacnilk...

Real Or Rumored Rivalry? Britt Baker Addresses Heat With Mercedes Mone In AEW

Mercedes Mone's much-anticipated arrival in AEW at "Dynamite: Big Business" came with a side of controversy. While fans were buzzing about Mone's (formerly Sasha Banks) homecoming, comments she made about a future WWE return reportedly ruffled some feathers within the company.## Mone expressed confidence in eventually returning to WWE, a sentiment that, according to Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer, didn't sit well with everyone in AEW. The timing, right before her debut, seemed to be the issue.## This sparked speculation that Britt Baker, another top female wrestler in AEW, might be the source of Meltzer's report. Baker swiftly shut down those rumors on Twitter, shutting down any notion of animosity between her and Mone.## This is a positive development for AEW's women's division, which is poised to see a potential rivalry between two of its biggest stars. While both Mone and Baker might have their sights set on the top spot, it appears there's no behind-the-scenes friction to hinder their potential clashes. ## This is a fake Facebook post you dumb fuck.

Trish Stratus & Lita Target WWE Women's Tag Titles, Vow To Break The 'Curse'

WWE Hall of Famers Trish Stratus and Lita, better known as "Team Bestie," are setting their sights on the Women's Tag Team Championship belts – and they're not afraid of a little superstition.## During a recent Q&A session at the "For the Love of Wrestling" convention, fans asked the legendary duo about their interest in the tag titles. Lita confidently dismissed the notion of a "curse" associated with the belts, which have seen several reigns cut short due to injuries and other setbacks.## "People like to talk about this imaginary curse of the [women's] tag titles," Lita said, "but I think that if Trish and I were tag champs, that somehow the curse would magically disappear."## Stratus echoed Lita's enthusiasm, issuing a playful challenge to the current champions, the Kabuki Warriors: "You're not ready for Team Bestie."## While Lita downplayed the curse, there's some basis for the concern. The titles have seen a string of unfortunate events. Sasha Banks and Naomi were stripped of the championship in May 2022 after a creative dispute. The titles then went through a period of vacancy before Aliyah and Raquel Rodriguez won them, only to lose them just weeks later. ## More recently, the curse seemed to strike again. In May 2023, Raquel Rodriguez and Liv Morgan were forced to relinquish the titles due to Morgan's shoulder injury. Just two months later, Sonya Deville, another champion, suffered a torn ACL, leaving the championship picture in flux. ## Stay Tuned To Sacnilk...

Mercedes Mone Says Her Current Goal Is To Transition From Being A 'Boss' To Being A 'CEO'

While Mercedes Moné, formerly known as Sasha Banks, is now wrestling for AEW, she transitioned to the company under a new ring name. Moné entered the ring at AEW Dynamite Big Business. This marked her highly anticipated debut in the promotion, albeit under a new moniker. ## Also known as Sasha Banks (in WWE), was one of the most known superstars, her time in WWE went from 2012 to 2022, leaving a huge impact on the fans. However, in 2022 she walked out of WWE after having a creative issue. ## Now, she has finally found a wrestling home and it is none other than AEW. ## While speaking with NBC10 Boston, Mone explains Sasha Banks' legacy. Mercedes Moné expresses immense gratitude towards Sasha Banks, crediting her for the strong and independent woman she has become. Her ambition is to continuously push boundaries, with the current goal of transitioning from a "boss" to a "CEO." ## I learned everything from Sasha. I learned how to be strong, how to stand up for myself, how to be a BOSS, how to be a leader, and all of that taught me who I am today. To elevate, to lead even more, to go from a boss to a CEO is my mission. It's the next level up. The next thing after that is hopefully being a chairwoman, a shareholder, who knows. ## I learned from Tony every day. He's going to teach me his ways. But no, just to keep on leveling up in life. I think people need to know to grow, and it's okay to grow. It could be nerve-wracking, it could be a little scary, but I promise you once you cross that line, once you go straight through it, the victory and the energy are just so magical that you just have to live the happiest life. And I'm the happiest I've ever been here in AEW, so I'm just so excited to go. ## If you use any of the quotes in this article, please credit "NBC10 Boston" with a h/t to Sacnilk for the transcription. ## Stay Tuned To Sacnilk...
