The match between Charlotte Flair and Ronda Rousey for the SmackDown Women’s Championship has been booked since right after the Royal Rumble.
With Rousey’s return to WWE and win in the Royal Rumble match, she chose The Queen as her WrestleMania opponent. Now, WWE has confirmed that the match will take place on Night One (WrestleMania Saturday), April 2.
WrestleMania continues to be a two-night event over the weekend of April 2 and April 3. Becky Lynch and Bianca Belair for the Raw Women’s Championship so far, is the only other women’s match announced for the show. With Flair and Rousey on Saturday night, it is likely that Lynch vs. Belair will take place on Sunday but this has not yet been determined.
Furthermore, it has not been confirmed by today’s announcement if Flair vs. Rousey will be the main event. On WWE programming, commentary has mentioned multiple times that both women’s matches are “main events.” Winning the Royal Rumble should gaurantee Rousey being in the main event but it has not been officially worded as such in print.
