11 WrestleMania 42 Card Predictions After WWE Royal Rumble 2026

11. RHIYO vs. The Bella Twins

Brie Bella's comeback during the women's Royal Rumble suggests that she and twin sister Nikki are about to launch their own personal assault on the tag-team ranks. By the time WrestleMania 42 goes live, Rhea Ripley and IYO SKY (collectively known as RHIYO) should've battled with everyone from Judgment Day, Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss, and the team of Nia Jax and Lash Legend.

If the Rumble is anything to go by, then Rhea vs. Lash in a singles bout is a real must at some point too.

The Bellas have the legacy star power to match up well against the reigning champs in Vegas though. Both could talk about how April is an opportunity to rubber-stamp Hall Of Fame careers on the grandest stage. Respect should also play a part in the story, at least initially - that'd change once both Nikki and Brie questioned whether or not IYO is the weak link of the opposite team.

Obviously, there's no truth to that, because Ripley and SKY complement one another incredibly well between the ropes, but WWE has to get at least a little bit of saltiness in there. That's a tag-team feud trope creative lean on regularly, so it'd be a surprise if they passed up the chance to do it here.

Predicted Winner: Rhea and IYO. It makes the most sense to keep the belts on that pairing for as long as possible, not least because neither has much else going on individually as singles stars right now; there have been rumours of a split and feud, but nah. They could easily dominate the division until summer at the earliest, and The Bellas don't exactly need a title run.
