Rhea Ripley is one of the greatest superstars in WWE today. She had a year-long reign as the Women's World Champion and had epic matches at The Show of Shows two years in a row. Rhea is also one of the most over stars in pro wrestling.

While Mami has had an incredible year or so, things unfortunately took a sad turn last week. The Eradicator kicked off Monday Night RAW and revealed that, due to an injury, she had to vacate the prized title she held for so long.

The title being vacated is unfortunate, but Triple H and company officials aren't wasting any time crowning a new champion. A Battle Royal will be held on Monday Night RAW to crown the next Women's World Champion. It isn't clear who could win the match.

For now, no competitors have been officially confirmed, but signs are hinting towards the winner possibly being Becky Lynch. The former multi-time world champion hasn't even been announced to partake in the bout, but she could very well be the one to leave as champion. What signs point to her potential win?

Below are three signs Becky Lynch will win the Women's World Championship on WWE RAW:


#3. Lynch was Rhea's last major opponent before the injury

Becky Lynch was just involved in a major match at WWE WrestleMania against Rhea Ripley. The two stars had been teasing a match for around a year, and things got quite heated before the biggest show of the year.

The pair ended up clashing in the opening match of Night One of The Showcase of The Immortals. The two women put on an incredible match, but The Riptide was enough to seal the deal for the Australian superstar.

In wrestling, when a title becomes vacant, it is often the champion's last and biggest challenger who gets the title. Given Becky and Rhea's massive match at WrestleMania, it would make sense that The Man is next in line to become the Women's World Champion.


#2. She wrestled on the European tour

Following WrestleMania 40, Becky Lynch did not appear on WWE RAW. Following her absence, reports began to circulate that Big Time Becks was taking time off. Many fans were under the impression that The Man would be gone for at least a month or two, if not longer.

Those concerns quickly faded, however. The WWE RAW brand toured the United Kingdom and Europe this past weekend, with shows in England, Wales, and even Northern Ireland. Becky Lynch competed at all three shows, battling the powerful and talented Piper Niven in a singles competition each night.

Fans may think that Becky doing the European tour doesn't necessarily mean that she's back to working a regular schedule after a short break. That is fair, but given how she publicly mocked the reports, it feels likely she will be back sooner rather than later, especially with Rhea no longer around.

Becky being active despite her alleged break points to her impending television return, which could mean a Women's World Championship victory as soon as tonight on RAW.


#1. Becky Lynch is the biggest female star currently active on WWE RAW

Rhea Ripley's injury is unfortunate for a lot of reasons. The most obvious is the human element. Nobody likes to see a talented WWE performer consigned to the bench due to an injury. It is also unfortunate for the title reign, as The Eradicator was in the midst of a dominant stint.

Beyond that, this is a major blow to WWE and Monday Night RAW. Rhea Ripley has been positioned as the top star of the brand regardless of gender.

WWE has a wealth of talented performers, and RAW is no different. The brand houses the likes of Raquel Rodriguez, Tegan Nox, Candice LeRae, Liv Morgan, Nia Jax, Chelsea Green, and various other notable names. Still, there is no denying that Rhea is a level of star far beyond the others.

Becky Lynch is the closest to matching Rhea Ripley's current star power. It could be argued that The Man is the biggest female performer in the company's history, thanks to her run over the past six years or so.

If the biggest current name goes down, it only makes sense for Triple H and company officials to bring another big name in to fill the shoes. Becky's star power alone is a sign that she's likely next to hold the gold.
